Service Upgrade Period Aug. 29 - Sept. 7

As we make exciting improvements, there will be a short view-only period when you will not be able to add new payees or schedule new payments. We encourage you to review scheduled payments before August 29. All previously scheduled payments will still process.

Payment withdrawal change

After the upgrade, payments will be withdrawn the night before they're due. For example, if you schedule a payment for October 8, then the funds will be withdrawn from your account on the evening of October 7 and delivered to the biller on October 8.

Reconnect your e-bills

To avoid any interruptions after the upgrade, you'll need to log in to Citizens Online Banking through your web browser and reconnect your e-bills. For your security, we don't share or store any of your login credentials, such as accounts numbers, passwords, and usernames, associated with your bill providers.

Seamless payment migration

Most customers will notice minimal change in their bill pay experience. With a few exceptions, your payment setup will automatically migrate over to the new system.

If your payment has an issue, you will receive an email with instructions to avoid payment delays.
