CC/GC => AP(A) => AP(B) => BB (works as ACH/DD). You can bill pay from BB to CC or the CC that sourced the GC and complete the cycle.

AP(B) has BB as an additional verified bank.

For those whose CVS would not take GC for payment. That is about the only thing I could think of this is the benefit.

Not sure what IB/IP? mean. However it is a viable workaround if one tries to go GC/VR route but CVS wouldn't take GC but DC or CC only.
