Automatic Installments Through Your Bank

Did you know that you can set up automatic payments directly through your own bank? Most banks now have an Online Bill Pay option where you simply schedule payments designating WUMB Radio as a recipient, and your bank will send the payments automatically.

Why is this a good option?
– This eliminates any credit card fees for the station.
– You never have to worry about updating your credit or debit card when it expires or changes.
– It’s automatic. Once you set it up, your bank does all the work.
– You have control over when you want the funds to be sent from your account.
Monthly? Quarterly? Biweekly? You can even set the date each month.
– You can upgrade or update your contribution at any time by contacting your bank. Read More…
