How Do I Set Up Auto Payment on a Bill with Truist Bank?

Jul 13, 2023

Truist provides its clients with a wide range of products and services, including automatic bill payments. This saves clients the hustle of manually paying their bills. Through the auto-payment feature, Truist automatically deducts expenses at the due date from linked accounts, ensuring that bills are paid on time.

 

Auto payment is easy to set up using the following steps:

1.  Creating a Truist Account

A Truist account is necessary for this process. You can create one by visiting the Truist website and clicking the "Sign Up" button. You must provide basic information like your name and email address and create a username and password.

Before your account becomes fully active, you must verify your email address. You can set up two-factor authentication for added security.

2.  Linking Your Payment Method to Your Truist Account

The next step is to link your payment method to your Truist account. This can be a checking account, savings account, or credit card. To do this, log in to your Truist account and navigate to the "Payments" section. Click "Add Payment Method" and follow the prompts to enter your account information.

To verify your payment method, you need to make a small deposit. Truist uses this method to ensure the payment is valid and belongs to you. Once your payment method is linked, you can set up auto payments for your bills.

3. Setting Up Auto Payment for Your Bills

Now that you have created your Truist account and linked your payment method, you can set up auto payment for your bills. To do this, navigate to the "Payments" section of your Truist account and click "Set Up Auto Payment."

Select the bill you want to set up auto payment for and enter the monthly amount you wish to pay. You can pay the minimum amount due, the total balance, or a custom amount. You also need to set the date you want the payment to be deducted from your payment method. Double-check to ensure all the information you entered is correct, then click "Confirm."

 

Managing Auto Payment Settings

You need to regularly review your autopayment settings to ensure your bills are being paid correctly. To do this, log into your Truist account and navigate to the payments section. Here you will be able to cancel or change autopayments.

Changing autopayment settings is simple. Select the bill you want to change in the payments section and click "Edit Autopayment." Follow the next prompts, then click "Confirm" to save your changes.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Truist Bank Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
