Recurring payments eliminate the need to manually schedule repetitive bills every month. Just set it up once and let bill pay automatically send the payments on the schedule you specify.

While standard electronic payments take 3-4 days, Langley offers same-day rush delivery for an extra fee. If you need to make an urgent payment that the payee needs to receive right away, the rush payment feature gets it there by the next business day.
The fees for same-day rush payment depend on the amount:
- $10 for payments $0 – $500
- $25 for payments $500.01 – $5,000
- $40 for payments over $5,000
