Entities that you pay (payees) can either receive a paper check or have the funds deposited electronically*.

How to pay a bill and set up electronic bills (eBills)
You can opt to receive electronic versions of your bills (rather than receiving paper bills). If you set up an eBill for an eligible payee, Cape Cod 5 receives a notification when your bill is available. Instead of receiving a physical bill from the payee, you’ll receive an electronic notification from Cape Cod 5 that your bill is ready.
You must use Online Banking to set up Payees for eBills. This cannot be completed in Mobile Banking.
