Paying bills with amex

So i've read about people use bluebird, serve, or things like chargesmart to pay companies that don't accept credit cards as payment.

 

Can someone please explain how this is done? I  want to shift all my payments onto my amex to get MR points but my auto loan company doesn't take credit cards.

My electric company DOES, but does NOT accept Amex.  I wish I knew how to get around that.

evolve is an way around that. Back to original question, if you are looking for easy way to pay for taxes, electricity , auto loans , etc. Serve is probably easiest way you can load by cc from home for 1000-1500 an month depending on the card softcard or regular serve. From there you can do an push payment to what ever company you want to pay.

This is kinda beyond the scope of this forum. if you google it you will quickly find an explanation of the different products. They are simple to understand by viewing their websites.

Re: Paying bills with amex

Please use google and find out about the products/explanation of how to use for bill pay/other things. There are forums more dedicated to this sort of thing.

 

We really don't need to start another situation which we all just agreed not to discuss on here!

Sorry i wasn't aware it was against the rules to discuss this. 

 

I checked evolve and they only accept discover for credit card payments.

It is not against the rules to discuss it. its just that it is kinda beyond the topic of credit cards in general when you start getting into the specific details of how the product works. Also, by looking at the websites or running google you will get a much more in depth analysis of which product would suit your needs and the pros/cons of each.

And they no longer allow you to pay lenders (your auto loan) with Discover.  Electric bill, yes, but only if your power company is already set up on their system.  I haven't had luck a single time trying to get them to add a biller for me, even after I forwarded all the requested documentation.
