FAQs

How do I use the Bill Pay feature?

It’s easy to use your spendwell® account to pay individuals or merchants located in the United States, such as your cell phone provider, your landlord, or your utility company. You must have email verified in order to use the bill pay feature.

 

If this is your first time paying a bill from your spendwell account, follow these steps to add a payee and pay your bill:

  1. Log in to your spendwell account.
  2. Go to Money Out and then select Bill Pay.
  3. Select Pay a Bill and then click or tap Add Payee.

We'll take care of the rest and send you an email notification each time you make a bill payment or if your payment is returned.

 

How can I check on the status of my bill payment?

After you’ve submitted your payment, you can check the status of your bill payment by logging into your spendwell account and clicking or tapping on View all transactions from your main account. Select the payment to see the status.

 

If you wish to edit or cancel a pending payment, you can only do so prior to your payee's cut-off time on the date that you submitted your bill payment request. To edit or cancel a bill payment, log into your spendwell account and click or tap on View all transactions from your main account. Select the payment you wish to change and select the appropriate button to stop or edit the payment, if those options are still available. After the cut-off time, you may still be able to stop payment on bills paid via check by calling customer service, but you cannot stop bill payments sent electronically.

How long does it take for my payee to receive payment?

Timing depends on the type of payee. If you pay a payee from our list of pre-registered businesses (“registered payee”), payment will be sent electronically, and it will take two business days. If the payee is not a “registered payee,” where we mail them a check for you, it will normally take about five business days. Please see the spendwell Cash Back Deposit Account Agreement and the spendwell No Monthly Fee Deposit Account Agreement for details.

Can I schedule bill pay reminders?

Yes, you can set up a bill pay reminder for each of your payees.

 

  1. Log into your spendwell account.
  2. Go to Money Out then select Bill Pay and Pay a Bill.
  3. Find the payee for which you want to create a reminder and click or tap on the information icon to the right of the biller’s name.
  4. Select Bill Reminder and set the frequency and start date for the reminders to begin.
  5. Select Save Reminder.

 

Follow these steps to view saved reminders:

 

  1. Log into your spendwell account.
  2. Go to Money Out then select Bill Pay and View Activity.
  3. Select Upcoming Bills to review any bills that are due soon.

 

Note: Bills set up with reminders will not be paid automatically. To pay a bill for which you received a reminder:

  2. Go to Money Out then select Bill Pay and View Activity.
  3. Click or tap on the biller you wish to pay.
  4. Enter the amount you wish to pay and select Pay to pay the bill.

Can subaccount users use the bill pay feature?

No, subaccount users do not have access to the bill pay feature.

Can I pay bills online by providing the biller my spendwell card number?

Depending on your biller, you may be able to pay your bill using your spendwell account and routing number (also known as ACH payments).

 

If you have email verified, as long as your biller accepts bank account and routing numbers for payments, you can use your spendwell account information to pay a bill. Locate your spendwell account and routing numbers to provide to your biller by logging in to your spendwell account then going to My Profile.

Can I pay bills by providing the biller my Account and Routing numbers?

No. Your spendwell Account and Routing numbers can only be used to receive direct deposits (such as your paycheck, government benefits or tax refund).
