See how Check Supply compares to Simmons Bank's traditional bill pay system
Simmons Bank Bill Pay allows customers to make one-time or recurring payments to businesses or individuals directly from their Simmons Bank checking accounts. The service supports electronic payments when the biller accepts them, with same-day or next-business-day processing for eligible payments. For recipients who cannot accept electronic payments, Simmons Bank mails a paper check on the customer's behalf. Electronic payments are typically debited on the scheduled payment date, while paper checks are debited when the recipient deposits the check. Simmons Bank provides features like eBills, payment reminders, and the ability to view payment history online. The service is available through Simmons Bank Online Banking and the Simmons Bank Mobile app, with no monthly service fees for most accounts.
Compared with Simmons Bank's built-in bill pay, Check Supply offers superior speed, visibility, and control for mailed checks. We process payments in one business day with same-day print-and-mail capability when queued by 3 PM ET (including Saturdays), provide granular status tracking (queued → printed → mailed), and clearly confirm when the check is deposited. Funds remain in your Simmons Bank account until the recipient deposits the check—we do not place pre-debit holds. The experience is a modern, simple flow similar to Cash App or Venmo for sending checks, and you can connect multiple bank accounts and choose which one to pay from. USPS transit times are not guaranteed by either service.
