To add a new payee, type the name of the person or company in the “Need to pay someone new?” field at the top of the main bill pay page and click Add.
Fill out the form, click the Add payee button and you are ready to make a payment.
Note: If you don't have any payees set up, or just a few, we will suggest some common payees at the bottom of the page. If you see your payee there, click their name to begin the add payee process.
Why can't I edit my payee's address?
When adding a payee (or trying to edit your payee later), don't be alarmed if we do not ask you for an address to which to send your payment. This just means that we have a relationship with this payee where we either pay them electronically, or the payee asked us to send payments to an address that might not match the address they give you on your bill.
Are there any types of payments I can't make?
Due to legal requirements, we limit the ability to make certain types of payments. Payments to payees outside of the United States are prohibited and may not be issued under any circumstances. In addition, the following payments are discouraged, but may be scheduled at your own risk:
- tax payments to the Internal Revenue Service or any state or other government agency
- court-ordered payments, such as alimony or child support
- payments to insurance companies
We will not notify you if you attempt to make any of these payments and we will not be liable for these prohibited or discouraged payments.
How are payments processed?
Tell us the day you want your payment sent and we take care of the rest.
Use our calendar widget when scheduling payments to assist in understanding when a payment can be delivered. Available dates will be displayed in blue. Unavailable dates including weekends, holidays, or a date that would not allow us to deliver the payment in time are grayed out and not selectable.
When will the funds be taken from my account?
The answer depends on a few factors:
Electronic payments: If we make your payment electronically, your account is debited on the day you scheduled that it be sent.
Check payments: The funds will be debited from your account one (1) to two (2) days after the send on date.
Note: To determine if a payment will be paid electronically or by check, locate the payment in the "Scheduled payments" section of the main page and click the edit icon. How a payment is scheduled to be made, electronic or check, will display in the pop-up box next to "Type."
What is an eBill?
An eBill is an electronic copy of your paper bill that you can view anytime from within the Bill Pay service.
eBills are a secure and convenient way to keep all of your bills in one place. You will be notified when an eBill arrives and when it is due so you never have a late payment.
How long do you store my history and eBills?
The last 24 months of payment history and eBills are available online for you to view. If for some reason you need payment information dating back past 24 months, give us a call and we will help you retrieve that information.
How can I choose what notifications are sent to me?
We send many types of notifications and alerts to you via email to keep you informed and up to date regarding your payments. Some alerts are system generated and cannot be turned off, but there are many others you can choose to "turn on" or "turn off."
How do I change my email address?
You can change your email address by clicking on the My Settings link in the header of the main bill pay page.

For Google Pay, just unlock your phone and hold it up to the terminal.
To check out using Samsung Pay, simply hold up your device to the terminal and tap.
You can also use all of these services to make purchases within apps and online.
What retailers accept digital wallet?
Is digital wallet safe to use?
All are very safe! When you make a purchase, Apple Pay uses a device-specific number and unique transaction code. Your card number is never stored on your device or Apple’s servers, and when you pay, your card numbers are never shared with merchants. Apple Pay doesn’t keep transaction information that can be tied back to you. Your most recent purchases are kept in Wallet for your convenience, but that’s as far as it goes.
Similarly, Google Pay doesn't send your actual credit or debit card number with your payment. Instead, it uses a virtual account number to represent your card information, so your details stay safe and secure.
Samsung Pay uses tokenization to create a unique randomized set of numbers to be used at each new transaction. Your real card number is never used from your phone. Each transaction must be authenticated by your fingerprint, pin number, or iris scan.
Can I still earn uChoose and Scholarship Rewards?
With Apple Pay and Google Pay, users will continue to earn reward points as normal. You can also add rewards cards like Walgreen’s Balance Rewards, Kohl’s Yes2You Rewards, and more. Simply, hold your phone to the terminal before you pay.
Samsung Pay has its own rewards program where you can earn points with every purchase. Rewards can be redeemed for gift cards and entry into instant win games. The more you use Samsung Pay, the more rewards you’ll earn each month.
What are the device requirements?
Each payment app has specific device and OS requirements.
What do I need to access my digital wallet?
- A DuGood debit or credit card
- The latest version of your device’s operating system (iOS or Android)
- Apple users must have an apple ID and sign into iCloud
Samsung users will have to call the credit union in order to activate their wallet. Dial the main number for your area and press option 2.
If you are a CardValet user, be sure your card is turned on, so it will function properly.
Will I need to change any settings or apps on my device?
- The Near Field Communication (NFC) feature on the device must be turned on. This can usually be done in the settings menu.
- If you use CardValet, the card must be turned on so it can function properly.
