Automatic Bill Payment

  1. What is automatic bill payment?
    • Automatic bill payment, using the Cox EasyPay secure transaction process, allows customers to have their Cox bill paid automatically each month from a designated bank account or credit card.

  2. What is the difference between EasyPay and Pay Bill on Cox.com?
    • While EasyPay is an automatic and recurring payment program, Pay Bill (see View / Pay Bill) is used for making payments one-at-a-time. Pay Bill is neither automated nor recurring. You must log in to pay your bill each time you wish to pay via the Pay Bill method.

  3. What are the requirements to sign up?
    • A valid bank account or credit card.

  4. How can I sign up for EasyPay?
    • Click on the EasyPay logo to complete an online enrollment. If you’re using your Bank Account, you will need a blank check to obtain the bank number and routing number.
    • If you are using your Credit Card, you will need your credit card to provide the card number and expiration date.

  5. How much does EasyPay cost?
    • EasyPay is a free service.

  6. How does EasyPay work?
    • We contact your bank or credit card company to have your monthly Cox charges deducted from the bank account or charged to the credit card each month. We will still send you a monthly statement so you can review your charges. You may also view your charges through the View/Pay Your Bill feature on www.cox.com at any time.
  1. How can I be sure my Cox bill has been paid through EasyPay?
    • A record of the transaction will appear on your monthly statement from Cox, as well as on your monthly bank account statement or credit card statement.

  2. Can I stop my participation in EasyPay?
    • Yes. You may stop participating in the EasyPay program at any time by speaking with a Cox customer care representative.
  1. What happens if I change banks or credit card companies?
    • If you change your bank or your credit card company, you can provide the updated information quickly and efficiently by visiting www.cox.com/easypay. You simply check the “Update EasyPay payment information” box and enter the updated Bank or Credit Card information.

  2. What happens when my credit card expires?
    • If your credit card is about to expire, you will receive a notice from Cox reminding you to provide the updated card information via www.cox.com.
    • As long as you provide this information prior to the month the card expires, your monthly bill will continue to be paid via EasyPay.
  1. Can I sign up for EasyPay with a debit card?
    • If your direct debit cards can also be processed as a credit card, then you can use this card to enroll in EasyPay.
    • If your debit card has a credit card logo on it (example: Visa, MasterCard), it can be processed as a credit card.
