Introduction

Welcome to Capital One’s Bill Pay system! This guide will walk you through the process of setting up and using Bill Pay to make payments online or by mail. We’ll cover everything you need to know, from adding billers to scheduling payments, and troubleshooting any issues that may arise. Let’s get started!

Adding a Biller

The first step in using Bill Pay is to add a biller. You can do this by signing in to your Capital One account and selecting “Pay Bills” from the main navigation menu. then, select “Add a Biller” and enter the required information for your biller.

If your biller is not found in the directory, you can manually enter their information to pay them by paper check. Make sure to provide the correct address for your biller, as this will ensure that your payment is delivered correctly.

Scheduling a Payment

Once you’ve added a biller, you can schedule a payment. To do this, sign in to your account and select “Pay Bills” from the main navigation menu. Then, select the biller you want to pay and choose a payment method. You can choose to pay electronically or by paper check.

If you choose to pay electronically, the payment will be processed immediately, and your biller will receive the payment the same day or the next business day. If your biller is not capable of receiving electronic payments, Capital One will send a paper check by mail, which may take up to five business days for delivery.
