This is the thread for posts through 2016. The new thread for 2017 is http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/manufactured-spending/1826119-billpay-walmart-2017-a.html

Bill Pay cannot be done at a regular register.
It must be done at Customer Service/Returns.
Or at the Money Center in stores that have it.


BUSINESS DAY transaction completion time is 18:59:59 EST
Friday after 06:59PM EST, until Monday BEFORE 07:00PM EST arrives Tuesday
Tuesday BEFORE 7:00PM arrives Wednesday
Wednesday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Thursday
Thursday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Friday
Friday BEFORE 07:00PM arrives Monday
But when a next-day payment will post and be visible depends upon the CC issuer.

--------------------------------------------------------------
WM offers two BP services: CheckFreePAY and MoneyGram. The cashier can initiate CheckFreePAY by selecting Money Services followed by Bill Pay on the register for a fee of $1-1.88. Moneygram is $4.99.

Once your CFP account is set up, you can add cc. When you want to BP give them your phone# to look up your account under Money Services. They often get confused and think you want MG, but just say it is under Money Services.

ONLY 4 successful debit card swipes can pay for a transaction.

ONLY 5 payments per 16 digit account number per rolling 30 days.
--------------------------------------------
:-:VISA and MC
If your particular card isn't on the list below, try "VISA" or "MASTERCARD."

"VISA" and "MASTERCARD" payee can no longer be found by search at some stores. If the employee can no longer find "VISA" or "MASTERCARD" by searching in CheckFreePAY, then you cannot pay either, end of story.

Two - SPG and PRG Gold. Only drawback was I had to fill out a form, "American Payment Systems" although the name on the printed receipt is CheckFreePay. Form asked "Name of Utility/Biller," Acct#, Payment amount, etc. I was in a hurry and didn't ask what they do with the form. I'll ask where they store it and for what length of time next time I'm there.

Sorry, I meant to ask whether you tried to pay with multiple debit cards.

That's not bad. I am guessing you used a PIN enabled gift card.

You have to tell them you'll be using multiple cards to pay for the transaction, and how much to put on each card.
I might be wrong, but I thought the limit is 4 debits per one transaction?

Correct. WM system will only allow 4 swipes per transaction.

I didnt know you could pay bill at WM without a fee? You must be confusing this with loading a BB card at WM. Expect to pay a fee of .88 to 1.88 for paying AMEX, Visa or MC

whoops, I meant the a larger fee..1.88 fee (not no fee).
They did have "Best Buy Chase" listed, so I'll try that for the Chase cards. I read on here that that seems to work for Chase CC's

I never cared to figure out why I get charged $1.5 sometimes while $1.88 other times. As long as my transactions were going through I was happy.

I am sure someone here knows hte difference between $1.5 and $1.88
