Splash Screen

The splash page helps new consumers learn to set up payees and payments. 

Benefits of this screen:

1. Helps your new Bill Pay consumers learn about Bill Pay. Many consumers do not realize that they can use Bill Pay to pay individuals, not just companies.

2. Helps your consumers understand that by using Bill Pay, they are not giving up control of when payments go out.

3. Shows the consumer how easy it is to use Bill Pay.

New consumers see this splash screen the first time they enter Bill Pay. It only displays the first time a new consumer accesses Bill Pay. On future logins, consumers are taken to the main landing page as described later.

Payees - Add Payee

As with all common tasks, consumers add payees from the Make Payments landing page.

A new consumer who has never added a payee will see no payees or payments listed, with additional help text showing them exactly what to do. This help text appears only to consumers who have no payees set up.

A consumer who has already added payees will see a list of their payees with an option to add additional payees at the top of the screen.

Payees – Types of Payee

Real-Time Address ValidationAll payee addresses entered when adding a new payee are validated with the United States Postal Service (USPS) in real-time. If an address that has been entered is considered by the USPS to have errors but is still deliverable, or is non-deliverable, an error message appears on screen instructing the consumer to review and correct the address. If an address that is considered non-deliverable by the USPS is not corrected, the system will not allow the payee to be added.

Step 1: When the consumer enters the payee’s name in the “Pay someone new:” field and the system does not automatically generate a list of payees, the consumer types in the full name of the payee and then clicks Add.

Step 2: The consumer is prompted to enter all the payee information and click Continue.

Multiple Payee Setup

To make the process of adding payees even easier, the Setup Assistant can be used to quickly set up multiple payees from a single page. The Setup Assistant lists common payees organized into categories (for example, credit card, mortgage, and so on) and displays them based on the ZIP Code (based on the consumer’s zip code). Consumers can quickly scan and make selections.

Step 1: The consumer selects Setup Assistant (to add multiple payees) from the “Pay someone new” field.

A payee is enabled for bill presentment (e-bills) if 1) the payee is able to offer bills electronically and 2) has an established relationship with FIS.

Upon setting up a payee that is enabled for e-bills, the confirmation screen will ask if they want to set up the e-bill. The consumer can provide the information now, provide it later, or opt not to receive an e-bill from this payee.

Bill Presentment – Set Up

Tip: Your financial institution should encourage the use of e-bills to improve your consumer retention rate.

Bill Presentment: Types

1. Scraped Bill: • The consumer enters login credentials to their account at the payee’s

website. • FIS retrieves the bill from that website and makes it available to the

consumer within Bill Pay. • If the consumer does not have an account established or has

forgotten their login information, they may set up or change these details by clicking the link provided on e-bill setup screen and then return to complete the e-bill setup.

There are two types of e-bills. The payee determines which type is available.

2. e-Bill: • The consumer gives FIS information about their last bill for this payee. • The fields that display vary depending on the payee’s requirements.• The payee sends the bill electronically to FIS and FIS and makes it

available to the consumer within Bill Pay.

Alert Preferences (cont’d)

Notes: • Only the alerts that apply to the products that your financial

institution has purchased/enabled will display to consumers (i.e. Expedited Payments).

• Some alerts cannot be turned ‘off’ as FIS requires that the consumer be notified for certain Bill Pay actions.

• The “from” email address for these email notifications and alerts is provided by your financial institution.

• Depending on your host, if a consumer changes their email address, the financial institution must update this information in Management Console Bill Payment User Profile Maintenance in order for FIS to have the latest email on file (see the Bill Pay Activation section of this training).

The default payment option is to “Pay manually” . However, consumers have up to two additional payment options for scheduling payments to payees:

1) Pay automatically at regular intervals: The payment is automatically scheduled to be paid based on a frequency that the consumer sets up. The next scheduled payment in the cycle appears in the “Pending Payments” section. Note: This payment option is available for all payees. Tip: This payment option is a good choice for mortgages or other bills in which the amount due and due date are the same for each payment and the payment is needing to be paid on a recurring basis.

2)Pay automatically in response to an e-bill: Upon the consumer receiving an e-bill from a payee, the payment is automatically scheduled to be paid based on rules the consumer sets up. The payment is automatically scheduled and appears in the ”Pending Payments” section if it meets the requirements of the rules that were established for the payment. If the bill does not meet the requirements of the rules that were established for the payment, then it will appear in the “e-Bills ready to be paid” section. Note: This payment option is available for payees with e-bills only.

Tip: This payment option is a good choice for utility bills or other bills that are different amounts every month, but tend not to be “more than” a certain amount, or for credit cards where the consumer has a minimum or full balance to be paid.

• the next scheduled payment in the recurring cycle for payees that were set up with the “Pay automatically at regular intervals” automatic payment option

• payments that were set up with the “Pay automatically in response to an e-bill” automatic payment option in which the new e-bill arrived and the system scheduled the payment according to the rules established Note: If the rule included the option to “Pay nothing and send e-mail notification”, the payment would appear in the “e-bills ready to be paid” section.

Payment Reminders – Set Up

The Payment Reminders feature notifies consumers that an upcoming payment is due. An icon will appear next to the payee on the Make Payments page and an optional e-mail will be sent 10 days before the due date input by the consumer. If a payee is automatically paid or is set up for e-bills, reminders will not be available for that payee.

If the consumer does not make a payment before the 10-day notification period, a new item appears under the Needs Attention link and the Action Needed icon appears next to the payee. When a payment is made to a payee with a reminder, the due date will be incremented and a new reminder is created. Alternatively, a consumer can increment a reminder due date without scheduling a payment by clicking the Skip reminder link.

Set Up a Reminder

Step 1: Click the Set up reminder link under the payee name on the Make Payments screen.

Step 2: Select a frequency, enter the due date and enter an estimated amount. Click the Save button.

Making Payments – Practical Assessment

1. A consumer calls and is confused as to why some e-bill payments appear under “e-bills to be paid” and some under Pending Payments. How do you explain this to them?

2. A consumer receives an e-bill but has paid the bill outside of FIS Bill Pay and they want to remove it from their “e-bills to be paid” section. What do you advise them?

3. A consumer wants to skip a payment that’s part of a recurring payment setup. What do you tell them?

4. A nervous new consumer wants to make sure they are getting their bills out on time. Both bills are due on the 25th, but one is electronic payment and one is a check. What do you tell them? (Don’t count weekends and holidays for the sake of this question.)

5. A consumer wants to see all their pending payments for a payee. What do you tell them?

Funding Accounts (cont’d)

Deleting Funding Accounts: 

• If there is only one funding account, it cannot be deleted.

• The default funding account can not be deleted.

• History for a deleted account will not appear on the default Payment History report. However, the consumer can create a custom report to display information from a deleted account provided it has some activity.

• An account cannot be deleted if there are any current payments from that account or a payee is set up to fund specifically from that account. Therefore the consumer will need to first choose a different account or choose the option “always use default account” for all payees that are set up to fund specifically from the account to be deleted. Then the consumer can delete the funding account.

Adding Funding Accounts: 

• If the consumer wants to make a newly added account their default funding account, then any Payees set up with “always use default account” will automatically use the new default account with the next payment sent if it’s a recurring payment. However, any pending single payments will not change to the new default. These payments can be edited in the Pending Payments section.
