What bills can I pay using Bill Payment?
Members may pay practically anyone using SMFCU Bill Payment: charge accounts, utilities, auto loans, even their
doctor or daycare center. There are, however, organizations that will not accept payments via internet bill payment,
such as the IRS and other taxing entities, court directed or government related payments.
What happens if there are non-sufficient funds (NSF)?
If there are non-sufficient funds, the debit will be returned to the
bill payment vendor via banking channels. The ACH return will prompt the
system to block the account, preventing the Member from making more
payments until the NSF is resolved. Any recurring future dated payments
scheduled for release during the time the account is blocked will not be
sent.
How is the payment deducted from my account?
By direct ACH debit through the Federal Reserve banking channels. SMFCU
uses the ACH format to identify the payees name so the customer can
recognize it on their monthly statement.
Can SMFCU Bill Payment be used outside the U.S.?
Yes. Pay bills from outside the U.S., but only if the system uses a
compatible browser. Payments may only be debited from U.S. bank accounts
and may only be made to payees inside the U.S.
