How Online Bill Pay can help you avoid financial fraud.

In today’s age, managing finances efficiently and securely is important. With fraudsters and scammers looking to take your money for a ride, it pays to be safer. Cadence Bank’s Online Bill Pay service is a smart choice for ensuring your bills get paid on time. But did you know it can help you avoid losses from fraud? Here’s how:

Enhanced Security Measures

To log in and set up Online Bill Pay, you’ll encounter multi-factor authentication (MFA). This extra layer of security helps ensure that only authorized users can access your account.

When you make transactions through Online Bill Pay, your payment information is encrypted. This means that even if data was intercepted, that data should remain unreadable to unauthorized parties.

Reduced Risk of Human Error

By scheduling automated recurring payments, you will spend less time going to a website and logging in to pay bills. This can reduce your risk of landing on a phishing site or a dummy website set up to look just like your real online portal in an attempt to fool users into using a bogus online payment system. With Online Bill Pay, your payments are on time and more secure.

Protection Against Identity Theft

With Online Bill Pay, there is no paper trail. Traditional paper checks will have no opportunity to get lost or stolen in transit because you’re not sending them. Online payments leave no physical paper trail, reducing the risk of identity theft. With Online Bill Pay, your account number and address will not be physically exposed through the mail system.

Convenient Records

Online Bill Pay maintains a digital record of your payments. You can easily confirm or access past transactions. Moreover, with a digital record of your payments, it’s easier and more convenient to have proof of payment available and access records to help resolve any disputes.

With more speed, security, convenience and less paper waste, Online Bill Pay is the safer, more eco-friendly way to manage payment of your bills. By taking advantage of these features, you can have more peace of mind while handling your financial obligations.
