This feature allows you to review pending one-time or automatic transfers scheduled for a future date and/or to cancel a transfer request before it occurs. You may also change information depending on the type of scheduled transfer.
There are two types of transfers to select:
- One-time - You can change the transaction amount and processing date of the transfer.
- Recurring - You can change the transaction amount, the next processing date, the number of transfers to be processed, in addition to the transfer’s frequency (weekly, monthly, etc.). Any change to a recurring transaction will affect all future transfers.
If you want to change the FROM account or TO account and then re-setup the transaction with the desired changes, you must first cancel the transaction. Because an immediate transfer takes place the instant it has been confirmed, it cannot be modified or canceled afterward.
Bank It - Transfer History
This feature provides the details and status of transfers you have made. You may select which transfers you wish to review. If you do not specify any search criteria, then all available transfer histories will be presented. You may specify any combination of the following transfer details, if you want a more restricted list of transfer histories:
- If you specify Account number you will receive history for all transfers for that account.
- If you specify Transfer dates you will receive history for all transfers between the specified starting-date and ending-date.
- If you specify Transfer amount you will receive history for all transfers within a +/-$10 range of the amount specified.
Pay It – Set Up/Change Payments
This feature is used to set up/make or change a payment. Click on the merchant you want and click on the button at the bottom that says “Setup/Change”. You’ll then set up the details of the payment. The second time you pay a merchant, the system will know if they accept electronic or paper payments. If you use the calendar feature to assign the date, it will tell you if the payment will take 2 or 5 days, based on how the merchant takes the payment. You can also determine what account the payment will come from, if it will be a one-time payment or recurring and you can add your own comment.
- One-time Payment - The payment is sent and processed only once. If the payment date specified is a non-business day (such as a holiday or weekend) it will be sent the next business day.
- Recurring Payment - The payment is sent for as many times as you have specified (up to 10 years). If the date specified is a non-business day it will be sent on the previous business day.
Pay It – Quick Pay
This is another way to schedule a payment. This screen gives you a list of your frequently used merchants with their last payment dates. Members can pay multiple merchants from this one screen.
Pay It – Scheduled Payments
This lists all the future payments that you have scheduled that haven’t been paid yet.
Pay It – Payment Calendar
This summarizes your past and future payments by date in calendar format.
Pay It –Payment History
This lists past payments based on a timeframe that you specify. You can also search for a past payment based on its confirmation number.
Pay It – Merchant Accounts
You’ll use the buttons at the bottom of this screen to set up a merchant for the first time. To do this, click on Merchant Accounts under the Pay It category and select ‘Add Merchant’. Here, you can also update existing merchant information. You will need to enter the merchant’s name, address, telephone number and your account number with them. You can add additional account numbers under this one merchant and you can delete merchants when necessary.
If the merchant you’re paying is able to receive an electronic payment, then your payment will be sent this way. If the merchant is not able to receive an electronic payment, then a paper check will be created and mailed through the Online Bill Payer service—at no additional cost to you. After you have made your first payment to a particular merchant, the system will tell you whether to schedule your payments for that merchant two business days in advance of the due date (for electronic payments) or five business days in advance of the due date (for paper check payments).
This allows you to check for payments that have already been sent. You can search by Merchant Name, Date Sent, Amount or Confirmation Number.
Mail It
Communicating has never been so simple! Using the featured links found under the Mail It menu in the left hand column, you can contact ACMG’s team of member service representatives directly. Mail It allows you to review, save, and delete received messages between you and the credit union and to send new messages to ACMG in which questions, problems or requests may be shared.

All correspondence e-mails will be displayed immediately upon logging into the Online Banking system.
