This section lists the bills you've added in CheckFree Web . You
can add a bill to pay virtually anyone in the United States that you
would normally pay by check or automatic debit, even if you do not
receive bills from the company or individual you want to pay. This
list includes the bills you receive electronically as well as those
that you have set up to pay
automatically.
You can pay one or more of the bills listed in this section. To pay a bill,
you must enter an amount and the date when you want the biller to receive your
payment. You can also select this date from the calendar. Some billers let you
send payments on the same day or the next business day, depending on the time of
day when you enter your payment information.
Tip: If you want to pay a bill that is not
in this list, you need to add the bill information. Click Add a Bill on any page
to go to the Add a Bill page.
You can pay one or more of the bills listed in this section.

page. The Welcome page opens.

To pay your bills:
In Account, select the account from
which to withdraw funds for the payments. Note: If you want to pay your bills from
more than one account, pay your bills from the account you selected first,
then select another account and pay bills from it.
Locate the bill you want to pay. Tip: You can scroll through the bills
list alphabetically in ascending or descending order by clicking on the Biller
Name column.
In Amount, type the amount you want
to pay. Note:
CheckFree Payment Services sets a limit on the total dollar amount that you
can pay from an unconfirmed account. After you confirm your account, your
limits are re-evaluated and usually changed.
In Pay Date, type the date you want
us to deliver the payment to the biller. Note: CheckFree Payment Services sets a
limit (usually 45 days) on the total number of days you can send a payment
from an unconfirmed account. After you confirm your account, you can type a
pay date that is up to a year in the future. Tip: Click the calendar icon to
determine the earliest available pay date you can select to pay your bill. The
pay date allows time for processing the payment and delivering it to the

automatically assigned to each of your payments and the total amount for all
payments that you just sent.

window. Note: You may receive more than one bill
in the same billing cycle. For example, if you're closing out your utilities,
your utility company may send you a bill for the previous month and then a
final bill for any remaining days of service. In this case, you'll see both
bills listed on this page.
Click View next to the bill you
want to view. The details of your bill appear in another browser window. In
some cases, you are transferred to the biller's Web site to view the details
