First Bank’s bill pay service allows you to pay virtually anyone or any company through your online banking account. You determine who you want to pay, when you want to make the payment, and from which account you want the payment to come. It’s safe, secure and easy to use.

You can pay virtually any business or individual with a mailing address within the United States and Puerto Rico. For example, you can pay utilities, cable bills or credit cards, or individuals such as a landlord, babysitter or relative.

Here’s a quick list of the many ways you can benefit from using First Bank’s bill pay.

• Save time. With bill pay, you can receive and pay your bills online, all in one place. That means no more visiting multiple websites to pay bills or trips to the post office to mail checks. Also, smart features such as recurring payments allow you to automate regular bill payments.
• Save money. Paying bills online saves on postage, envelopes, late fees and checks. If you pay just 10 bills per month, you can easily save over $110.00* per year.
• Stay organized. Your payment history is stored in your online account, so you won’t have to sort through paper receipts or visit multiple websites to access past transactions.
• Gain peace of mind. Electronically paying bills means no risk of mailed checks getting lost or stolen. Plus, you can stop worrying about missing a bill payment when you set up reminders and automate recurring payments.
• Help the environment by saving paper. With Bill Pay, there are no checks to write or envelopes to mail. That’s good news for you and the environment.

*Savings are approximate and based upon the average annual cost of stamps, envelopes, and checks required for paying 10 bills per month.

Bill pay payments are sent one of two ways—electronically or by paper checks. The majority of payments are delivered electronically. Your payment information, such as your account number, is sent via a secure transmission. All other payments are made by paper checks that are mailed via the U.S. Postal Service.

Paying bills online is one of the safest ways to pay your bills. Bill pay helps guard against identity theft from lost or stolen checkbooks, bills, and statements. It also increases your privacy because only you can access your account information, account numbers, and payment history. As a result, you maintain tighter control of your account with real-time access to your payments activity.

Generally, your payment is received within 2 to 7 days, depending on whether it is sent electronically or via paper check.

Most scheduled payments are sent electronically and funds are withdrawn from your account on the payment date.

eBill is a feature that allows you to receive and pay electronic versions of paper bills directly from First Bank’s online bill pay.

eBills are delivered directly to your bill pay. Once you set up an individual eBill for a company you do business with, an eBill comes directly from that payee to your account. Examples of businesses that offer eBills are cable service providers, phone service providers, utility providers, and credit card companies.

You may continue to receive paper statements for the next 2 or 3 billing cycles. Contact your payee for more details on their paper statement policy.

If a payee offers eBill, there will be a Setup eBill link next to their listing on your bill pay dashboard.
If you are receiving eBill summaries from your payee and full bill statements become available, you will see a button that reads Setup eBill.

With eBill, everything you need is in one convenient location. Using eBill allows you to streamline your bill pay routine and have online access to your bills. That means you won’t have to keep track of paper bills. Also, you can view past bill statements at a glance.

If available for your payee, your full bill statement will be delivered to your account. That means you can view all statement information, including transactions, payment history, credits, and more.
If full eBill details are not available for your payee, you will receive a summary eBill statement that includes balance due, due date and minimum payment amount.

To pay an eBill, choose the account you want to pay from, enter the amount you want to pay and schedule when you want the payment delivered.

You can sign up to receive an electronic notice to alert you when an eBill has been delivered to your account. You can receive these notices in the form of emails or text alerts to provide an extra reminder when a payment is due.

Challenge Phrases are questions and responses known only by you that act as another layer of security when you do things like add a new payee. The first time you access First Bank’s bill pay, you will be prompted to create a minimum of 4 challenge phrases.
You may add or remove challenge phrases at any time by going to My Account in bill pay and updating the Security Information section.

Categories allow you to group your payees for customized listings, whether you’re scheduling payments, viewing pending transactions, or researching your transaction history. You can manage your categories by going to My Account in bill pay and assign a payee to a category when adding or editing them.
