Setting up Quicken Bill Manager with Quick Pay and Check Pay

Check Pay makes mailing a check to anyone nationwide fast and easy. Once you have set up Check Pay, you will just enter the payee's name, address, and amount into Quicken. We’ll automate printing, stuffing, and mailing a check drawn off of your own checking account.

It is most common to set up Check Pay during the setup for Quick Pay.

Note: Bill Pay requires the use of a checking account. You will need to set up your checking account in Quicken before you set up Bill Pay features.

Quick Pay is not available in Canada.
