You could save time and money. And you could help save a tree.

  • Date you want to be charged

  • Amount you authorize to be charged

Does the biller need to store my Discover Network Card information?
Some billers may allow you to use one-time bill pay without storing your card information.  Contact your biller directly for further information.


After Establishing Bill Pay

What if my bill amount changes?
If you've established one-time bill pay, you will see the new bill amount before you pay. If you sign up for reccuring bill payments, you will pre-select one of the following options:
1) Pay the full amount of your bill each month even if it changes.
2) Pay a fixed amount and be credited for overpayment.

How do I stop or discontinue reccuring bill payment?
Contact billers directly to cancel or discontinue any scheduled recurring bill payment.  Some billers require advance notice to discontinue recurring payments, so allow additional time for any changes to your payment service.

What if there is a payment discrepancy or I have other payment questions?
Please contact the biller directly to settle payment discrepancies or for other payment questions.

What if my Discover Network Card is updated, lost or stolen?
Immediately report a lost or stolen Discover Network Card to the bank that issued your card.  To avoid service interruption on recurring bill payments, provide billers with your new Discover Network Card information.

Will I still receive a paper bill by mail?
Most billers will continue to send you a duplicate of your bill by mail. You do not need to pay the bill twice. If you wish to stop receiving paper bills, contact the merchant(s) directly.
