Direct Pay

Direct Pay Add-on Module 

The Direct Pay Add-on Module gives your customers the option of using an electronic fund transfer to pay their bills. A customer who is set up with direct pay can use an electronic funds transfer to transfer money from their checking or savings account to pay their utility bill. The customer does not need to write a check, pay cash, or charge a credit card. 

Here's how the direct pay process works...
