Tips for Paying Your SECU Credit Card Bill Online
-
Schedule payments at least 5-7 days before the due date listed on your statement for on-time delivery.
-
Opt for recurring autopay to avoid late fees and free up time each month.
-
Sign up for eStatements directly in online banking to receive instant statement access vs. waiting for mailed paper copies.
-
The minimum payment is the smallest amount due, but paying your full balance monthly avoids interest charges.
-
Contact SECU if your due date needs to be changed before setting up autopay.
Paying online allows SECU credit cardholders to take control over bill payment. Set up recurring payments tailored to your schedule, or make one-time payments manually each month. Either way, managing your account digitally helps guarantee on-time payments and simplifies bill management.
