Gain more control over your finances with pay business bills—a free, simple, and secure way for small businesses to pay their bills.
Use pay business bills to pay utility bills, vendor bills, contractors, and even rent. However, there are some bills you can’t pay.
The most important thing to remember is that both entities must be businesses. Meaning you can only pay other businesses.
For non-business payments, please refer to other payment options offered by Capital One.
Here are some guidelines to help you save time.
