Electronic Check/Credit-Debit Card/Apple Pay

e-Check Payments/Credit-Debit Card Payments

You may prefer to pay your bill with an e-Check (electronic check) payment. Similar to a debit card, e-check electronically debits your checking or savings account. E-Check payments are made via your CUNYfirst account. There is no convenience fee associated with the e-check payment option.

You can also pay with a credit/debit card. There is a 2.65% service fee added to this method of payment.
