  • Make this a repeating online payment

    Select this option to create a repeating online payment instruction for the reminder.

    A repeating online payment is a series of online payments to a specific payee, for a set amount, on a schedule that you choose.

    The repeating payment instruction is sent to an online bill pay service, such as Quicken Bill Pay or your financial institution, and they make payments on your behalf on the scheduled dates. You do not need to send the payment yourself each time it is due. This is a good choice for long-term payments of the same amount. Just be sure you keep enough money in your account to cover the payment when it is due.

    This option is available only for accounts that are activated for online bill payment.

    To activate online bill payment, choose Tools menu > Account List, click the Edit button next to the account to you want to activate, click the Online Services tab, and then click the Set up now button.
