How does paying bills online work?

  • Using AuburnBank Online Bill Pay is a total bill management solution.  It allows you to receive, manage, and pay all of your bills online directly through your bank account.  A majority of billers are paid electronically right out of your account automatically based on the schedule you set, or as a one-time payment if you prefer.  If AuburnBank does not have an electronic payment relationship with a biller, we will mail a check directly to the biller for you.  There is no need to do anything different, except that you may want to schedule payments for check billers earlier due to longer delivery times.  The total bill management solution also allows you to manage all your billing statements from one place online.  It acts as your bill payment mailbox.  You no longer have to receive paper bills and send out checks in the mail.  With total bill management eBilling, bills come electronically and they are paid based on the instructions you have set up, or you are reminded that a bill is due.  It is that simple!

What bills can I pay online?

  • You can pay almost anyone you receive a billing statement or invoice from for anywhere in the United States excluding government entities and court-ordered payments.  We have information on most payees so all you need is your account number.  If we do not have the information on the payee you are trying to make a payment for, just setup the payee once by entering their billing address for your account and your account number.

How do I get started paying bills?

  • To pay bills online, you must first be enrolled in Online Banking.  As an AuburnBank Online user, you must also apply for Bill Pay.  You must accept the Terms and Conditions prior to  submitting your application.  You will receive an email with log in credentials after your application is processed.

How do I know the payment will arrive on time?

  • Payment timing can vary by payee, and delivery dates are based on the way payments are delivered to payees.  If your payee has electronic payment capability, it will take about two days for your payee to receive your payment.  If we have to send a check, it could take up to four days for your payee to receive your payment.  Payee lead times, the amount of time your payee requires to process a payment, may also vary.  AuburnBank’s Bill Pay includes a calendar, which can help you determine when you should schedule a payment based on the payee’s delivery method and their lead times.  When making your payments, just select the appropriate Send On date, and the calendar will automatically display the Deliver by date for that payee.  The earliest available date for payees may vary based on delivery method and payee processing times. Please note that payee posting and cut-off times vary.  Please check with your biller for exact details on how payments are credited to your account.

Can I set up reminders for bills that need to be paid?

  • Yes.  You can set up your own reminders for any bills that need to be paid.  We will automatically display the amount and the number of days remaining until a payment is due right in your payee list.

What is an eBill?

  • An eBill is an electronic version of your paper bill that you can receive directly into AuburnBank Bill Pay, which you can then view and pay immediately.  eBills are available for many payees and you can set up eBills only for the payees you choose.  Once you have an eBill setup for a payee and start receiving it, you may choose to have your payee stop sending you a paper bill as you will receive it in AuburnBank Bill Pay.  It typically takes 1-2 billing cycles for you to begin receiving your bill online.
