Capital One Credit Card Offers Auto Pay - 2million Personal Finance ...

For those of you who use a Capital One card - there is good news. I logged into my Capital One account this week to find they now offer an Auto-Pay feature. This means I can now set up my credit card account to automatically withdraw my monthly balance from my checking account on its due date and not have any risk of late fees and finance charges (as long as there is enough money in my checking account).

This is a far change from when I was growing up. I can remember my parent's near weekly Sunday ritual paying bills and scrutinizing every line item on their credit card bill to ensure there isn't an unexpected charge.

These days in our time poor world I have a bigger fear of paying a bill late than having an unexpected charge. I do scan our credit card bills when they arrive to look for out of place transactions, but do this asynchronously from paying our bills.

My Capital One credit card was the last credit card account I had that didn't offer this auto-pay feature. With this change I now have all our monthly bills on autopay with exception of our electric bill. In our time poor world these days I see this as a critical step to make sure we don't get unnecessarily late fees or finance charges.
