Log in to Cal Coast Online and click on the Pay Bills tab to get started. Please make sure you are using a supported and updated browser. Also please check to ensure Javascript is enabled. Certain features used in Bill Pay will not function properly if Javascript is disabled.

The payment date is now the date your bill is paid and not the date your payment is sent. The payment is withdrawn from your account on the selected Deliver by Date or when a payee deposits their checks. The new Payment Guarantee* of 4 days instead of 5 days protects you from late payments and fraud.

*We will bear the responsibility for any late payment related charges (up to $50) should a payment arrive after its due date as long as you scheduled the transaction in accordance with Bill Pay's terms and conditions, which are available Online upon enrollment.

This is a problem with browser cookies. Cookies must be enabled to open the Pay Bills window. Sometimes cookies get deleted, which can also cause this problem.

To solve the problem, ensure that cookies are enabled, and open Bill Pay in a new window. To do this, right-click on the Pay Bills tab (Mac users cmd-click the tab), and select "Open in New Window". This will load cookies into your browser, and the next time you use Cal Coast Online, you should not need to do this again.

Vendors that support eBills (called eBillers) are only able to provide one eBill at a time. If you have set up this vendor for eBills at another financial institution, you can't set it up again at Cal Coast unless it is deactivated at the other financial institution. Your eBiller may take one full billing cycle to deactivate your old eBill. Once it is deactivated, you should be able to set it up again in the bill pay in Cal Coast Online.

California Coast's eBills make paying bills efficient and easy. eBills are electronic versions of your paper bills delivered to you through Bill Pay. With eBills, you won't need to wait for a paper statement because your bills will appear inside Bill Pay along with their amounts due, due dates and other details. And, it all happens on one secure website, so you don't have to visit multiple biller websites.

Mobile Wallets like Apple Pay^®, Samsung Pay and Google Pay allow you to carry your card information in a Mobile form on your mobile device. Instead of using a plastic physical card to make purchases, you can pay with your mobile device. Here’s how it works:

• Mobile Wallets allows you to make purchases with a mobile device by holding the device near a contactless reader at a participating merchant and authorizing the payment with your finger print or PIN.

Apple Pay

1. Go to Wallet and tap the "plus" sign
2. Tap “Continue”
3. Position your card in the frame to capture card info. If the phone cannot read the numbers, tap “Enter Card Details Manually”
4. Enter the 3 digit CVV from the back of the card

Your card number and identity are not shared with the merchant, and the card number is not stored on the mobile device. Mobile Wallets create a device-specific Virtual Card Number and uses it instead of providing the actual card number. Plus, transactions are monitored by California Coast’s fraud detection systems.

Yes. Mobile Wallets are free. Check with your wireless provider to determine if data and text messaging rates apply.

You can pay with Mobile Wallets within a participating merchant app, and use it at more than a million stores and restaurants who accept contactless payments.

Note: Home Equity Line of Credit credit cards are not eligible.

To remove a card, open your Mobile Wallet app and select the Remove/Delete Card Option.

When using the Mobile Wallet app verify the app is set as the default payment service and default payment app. When opening the Mobile Wallet app you will be prompted to make that wallet the default. Also check your phone settings to verify NFC is turned on.

All loan payments have two transactions: the negative transaction of money leaving your bank account, and the positive transaction of money paid towards the debt, decreasing what you owe. Please Note: Credit cards are different because there is no asset associated with the debt. A credit card payment is repayment for money borrowed on transactions already accounted for in your budget.

Each color in the chart corresponds with the category colors in the spending wheel. Hover over any category to view the exact amounts spent month to month over time. Click a color to see subcategory spending, or click a circle to view transactions for that month.
