Bill Pay

Remember the days when everyone wrote checks? You received a bill in the mail with a due date. You endorsed a check and then mailed it to the biller’s address at your expense, hoping it would arrive on time. When the biller received your check, they cashed it and the funds were deducted from your account.

Basically, Bill Pay works the exact same way…but with major benefits! With Bill Pay, you can stop writing and mailing checks entirely. You can also avoid jumping from website to website to login and pay bills. That’s a lot of passwords to remember!

Instead, use Bill Pay in the GTE Mobile App or in GTE Online Banking to conveniently and securely pay all your bills on one trusted website, from any computer, 24/7/365. Best of all, Bill Pay is free to use with your GTE Checking Account*.

• Electronic: The vast majority of payments are now made electronically, and funds will not be deducted from your account until your Pay Date.
• Check: For payments that must be made with a check, GTE sends the check for you. Funds are deducted when the biller completes processing of the check – just like a check you would send. Once the biller has fully accepted and cleared payment, your account and available balance will be updated to reflect payment. Payment will not be preemptively deducted.
• The Bill Pay system will also review your merchant requirements and either send an electronic or check payment based on the biller specifications. Within the Bill Pay system, you will be able to view how your payment was made.
