HOW TO CREATE MULTIPLE PAYMENTS

Set up multiple payments for your recurring or batch payments, such as payroll.

What type of multiple payments can I set up?

A batch, recurring or multiple payment can be created for funds transfer, Pay Anyone, BPAY®, direct entry services, or a combination of Pay Anyone and funds transfer.

How do I set up a multiple payment?
