Boston, September 22, 2020 – Though evolution in bill payment has meant adding new channel support and expanding the range of payment methods accepted, traditional methods such as ACH still dominate the bill pay space. But paying bills on either a financial institution’s website or a biller’s website is a complicated and friction-prone task for consumers. The market is due for new bill pay solutions to improve the customer experience and to help banks and billers capitalize on better digital consumer experiences and interactions.

This report, sponsored by BillGO, sizes the channels and methods consumers used to pay their most common bills in the last year and analyzes bill payment volume and gross dollar volume across the 30 most popular bill categories. Based on a Q2 2020 Aite Group survey of 3,039 U.S. consumers, it uncovers insights into how all generations are conducting bill payment activities and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected these activities.
