Bill Pay is a service of Peninsula Credit Union that allows you to pay your bills online. You can pay virtually anyone, anytime, anywhere in the United States. Making payments online is one of the most efficient and economical features of Online Banking. It saves you the time of writing checks, trips to the mailbox, and time at the post office. It even saves you the cost of stamps. In addition, you can elect to receive e-Bills from a large number of companies such as major credit cards and wireless phone providers.

You can pay any business or individual that you currently pay by check, your phone bill, loan payments, insurance, and credit cards, even your dentist or daycare center. Please note you cannot pay court-ordered payments or state and federal taxes online at this time.

To access Peninsula’s Bill Payment System, you must have a checking account in order to access Bill Pay. Log on to online banking using your username and password. Then select the “Bill Pay” in the menu at the top. You will then see a “Welcome to Online Bill Pay” screen, read through the Features and Getting Started bullet points, then click “Get Started”. Verify your information and read the Terms and Conditions. If you agree, click “Enroll”.

No, it’s FREE!

The three payment methods are:

• On the payment date you specify, an electronic credit is sent to your biller and an electronic debit is sent to your account. Your account will be electronically debited on your scheduled payment date. This method is used when the company or biller you are paying has an electronic agreement set up with our Bill Pay partner.
• Electronic-to-check payment – A check is drawn on our Bill Pay partner’s account and mailed to your biller several days prior to the payment date you specify. Your account will be electronically debited on your scheduled payment date.
• Laser-printed check – A check, drawn on your account with your account encoding printed on the bottom, is mailed to the biller. Billers receiving laser checks deposit them just like ordinary checks. Your account will be debited as if you had written a personal check, when the biller cashes the check and it is presented for payment.

NOTE: If you are not sure how your biller is going to be paid, plan on the money coming out of your account right away by deducting it from your check register. If your biller received a laser check, the money will not come out of your account until they cash it, however; it would be wise to deduct this amount from your check register right away, similarly to when you write a personal check.

Credit Sense is a comprehensive Credit Score program offered by Peninsula Credit Union, that helps you stay on top of your credit. You get your latest credit score and report, an understanding of key factors that impact the score, and can see the most up to date offers that can help reduce your interest costs. With this program, you always know where you stand with your credit and how your financial institution can help save you money.

Credit Sense Credit Report provides you all the information you would find on your credit file including a list of open loans, accounts and credit inquiries. You will also be able to see details on your payment history, credit utilization and public records that show up on your account. Like Credit Score, when you check your credit report, there will be no impact to your score.

No. Credit Sense is entirely free and no credit card information is required to register.

As long as you are a regular online banking user, your credit score will be updated every month and displayed in your online banking screen. You can click “refresh score” as frequently as every day by navigating to the detailed Credit Sense site from within online banking.

Credit Sense pulls your credit profile from TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting bureaus, and uses VantageScore 3.0, a credit scoring model developed collaboratively by the three major credit bureaus: Equaifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This model seeks to make score information more uniform between the three bureaus to provide consumers a better picture of their credit health.

No. Checking Credit Sense is a “soft inquiry”, which does not affect your credit score.  Lenders use ‘hard inquiries’ to make decisions about your creditworthiness when you apply for loans.

No, Peninsula Credit Union uses its own lending criteria for making loan.
