How Do I Setup Bill Pay with Ally Bank?

If you have an Interest Checking account with Ally Bank, then you can have the bank make your bill payments for you. The bank will take the money out of your account when it is needed and send it where it needs to go, all without you doing anything. Whenever possible, the payment will be sent electronically. If a payee doesn't accept electronic payments then the bank will send a check instead. To find out how to get these recurring payments going, keep on reading this article.
