   Will I go directly to online banking?

No. For security reasons, eBillme does not link you directly to your online banking accounts. Your eBill is similar to any other bill that you would pay online. Simply login to your bank’s bill pay service and complete your payment. Depending on your bank, you may be able to select eBillme from a list, or you may be required to enter the additional information found in the eBill. Like other bills, you only have to set-up eBillme as a payee once so the next time you use eBillme, paying will be even faster.

   Do I use my credit card to pay my eBill?

eBillme is cash-based so you do not have to provide the merchant or eBillme with your credit card number or any other financial information. Simply select eBillme as a payment option at checkout and you will be emailed an eBill with your order details and instructions on how to pay your eBill securely with cash from your online bank account. 

   When will my payment be processed?

At eBillme we work hard to process payments as quickly as possible to keep your order moving as fast as possible. eBillme payments are typically processed within 24 hours. However, it may take your bank 1 to 3 business days to process your payment and transfer the funds.

   When will my order be shipped?

eBillme processes payments as quickly as we can to ensure that your online order gets shipped to you as quickly as possible. eBillme orders are processed within 1-3 business days. Our merchants typically ship when payments are processed.

   I paid for my order, but just received an email saying I need to pay. Why?

If you have already sent the payment for this order, please disregard this automatic reminder email. We are sorry for the confusion. Sometimes, it can take a couple of days for eBillme to receive your payment from your bank. As soon as we do, we tell the store, and the store will go ahead and ship your order.

   I paid for my order, but the store says it hasn’t received payment yet. Why?

If your bank sent your payment electronically, it can take 1-3 business days for the store to receive your payment. On rare occasions, the first payment made to us is sent from the bank to us as a physical check which takes longer to process. Your online banking bill pay website should give you an approximate delivery date. You can usually tell by the delivery date if it was sent electronically (1-3 days) or as a check (sometimes longer). If you don’t see this information you can always call your bank to find out.  As soon as the store receives your payment they will go ahead and ship your order.

With over 110 Million Americans with access to an online bank account, someone in your family, or one of your friends should be able to help you out.

   My parents are worried about fraud and identity theft – What should I say?

We think it’s important for people to ‘check us out’ and make sure they are comfortable using eBillme.

You can use the following description when explaining eBillme.

eBillme allows people to pay safely from their online bank without sharing any routing or account numbers with eBillme or the merchant.
