Tired Of Paying Bills? Let Your
Credit Union Do It For You!

Okay, so your credit union can't actually supply the funds to pay your bills. We can, however, eliminate the stress and time constraints associated with doing so. The service is called Electronic Bill Payment, and will be available to members who have a credit union checking account!

Electronic Bill Payment (EBP) can make it simple and convenient to pay your monthly bills. All you will have to do is verify that the amount you have been billed is correct, and then schedule the payment. We will do the rest!

You will be able to schedule recurring payments of the same amount (e.g., mortgage), and by retaining the contract information of the payee, your bill payment history will speed the process of paying billed amounts that vary from month to month (e.g., credit card).

Payments should be requested no less than five business days prior to a bill's due date to ensure they are received on time.

Please sign up now, Bill Payment is now being offered at your credit union, stop by the credit union or give us a call at 781-933-2600. Feel free to print the form below and bring into the credit union.

IRAs Can Help You Save on
Taxes and for Retirement

Depending on your income and participation in a qualified retirement plan, you may be able to deduct contributions to a traditional individual retirement account (IRA). Even if you can't deduct contributions, a traditional IRA is a great choice for retirement savings because your account grows tax-deferred until withdrawal.*

State and federal tax laws are complex and change from year to year. Remember to consult your tax advisor before taking any steps that could affect your tax status.

*Withdrawals will be taxed as ordinary income. Withdrawals made before age 59> may be subject to a 10% tax penalty.
