Make a Quick Pay payment

Quick Pay is integrated with eBills which are bills that can be downloaded like credit cards or utilities. Quick Pay only works with eBills so you will need to enable eBills before making a Quick Pay.

Enable eBills

To enable an eBill, follow these steps.

• Go to the Bills & Income blue tab.
• Under the Bills tab, select New Bill. If under the Payees tab, select Add Payee.
• Follow the steps to add an eBill Payee including typing in your credentials for the eBill.
• Once an eBill has been added, you can pay this bill with Quick Pay.

Pay with Quick Pay

To make a Quick Pay payment to your online biller you will need to provide a few details to help Quicken make a payment on your behalf. The required information includes:

• Amount: By default we will display the amount of the bill, but you have the flexibility to pay a different amount. For a credit card bill, you will have the option of paying the statement balance, the minimum due, the current balance, or an amount of your choosing as long as that amount is allowed by the biller. Some billers may not allow you to pay more than the amount due.
• Pay Date: Quicken allows you to either pay a bill immediately or to schedule that bill to be paid later. The payment date will default to today’s date. If you want to make your payment immediately, leave the date set to the default. The payment will be made as soon as possible, usually within a few minutes. If you want to schedule a payment, pick a future day on which you want the bill to be paid. In most cases you can schedule a bill up to 45 days in advance. We recommend you schedule your payment no later than a day or two prior to the due date to allow recovery from any possible payment issues prior to the due date to avoid late fees or penalties. Your payment will be made within 24 hours after the scheduled date.

• Pay From: You can choose from any account that is enabled for Quick Pay payments.

  

  Quicken  remembers the last account used to make payments to billers with Quick Pay or Check Pay so that you can automatically use the same account again. You are always free to choose a different account.

  
  

• Category, Tag, and Note fields. Enter this optional information to create better reports on your payments and transactions.
• Note: When using Quick Pay, you can only schedule one payment at a time for the same Payee.

Once you have filled in all the information, select Review to review your payment details. Verify all of your information to be sure the payment is correct. Once you have verified the information, select Submit.

If you choose to Schedule a payment, that payment will appear immediately in your register marked as Scheduled. The status will change to Paid once the bill is paid or Failed if the bill could not be paid. You can also see your scheduled payments in Calendar view.

NOTE: You can cancel a payment prior to the payment date if you want to make changes to the payment amount/date/account or to pay via another payment method.

Confirm or Cancel Payment

You will be presented with a summary of your payment so you can review the payment before sending it to process. This double confirmation helps you to avoid any unwanted errors. This also provides you with a chance to cancel the payment before the actual transaction is recorded in the register. After confirming from this screen, you might still be able to cancel the payment, but the amount of time available varies from biller to biller.
