How to Pay Your BMO Line of Credit from Another Bank

If you have a Bank of Montreal (BMO) line of credit, it is convenient to make your payments directly from another bank. This article outlines various options available to you in making these payments. You can do this through online banking, mobile banking apps, or calling customer service. Read on to find an approach that will work well for your situation.

Online Banking

Online banking is a popular, secure, and convenient method for making your BMO line of credit payment from another bank. You will need to have an online account set up with your other bank to follow these steps:

• Navigate to your bank's website and log into your account.
• Find the option section for making payments or transfers.
• Add your BMO line of credit as a new payee. This usually requires you to input your BMO account number and select BMO from a list of banks.
• Once your BMO line of credit is added as a payee, you can make your payments or set up automatic bill payments if your bank offers this feature.

Mobile App

Mobile banking apps have made banking on-the-go easier than ever. Most banks have mobile apps that offer the same functionality as their online banking websites. Keep in mind that to use this method, you need to have the mobile banking app of the other bank installed on your phone.

• Open your bank's mobile app and log into your account.
• Navigate to the payments or transfers section.
• Add your BMO line of credit as a payee, inputting the necessary information as described in the online banking section.
• With the BMO line of credit added, make your payments as desired.

Customer Service

If you prefer to speak directly to a representative to make your payment, you have the option to call your bank's customer service. This method can be beneficial if you encounter any issues during the payment process or if you prefer speaking with someone directly.

• Search for your bank’s customer service number. This can usually be found on the back of your bank card or on your bank’s website.
• When connected with a representative, tell them you want to make a payment to your BMO line of credit.
• You will need to provide the representative with information such as your bank account number and your BMO line of credit account number. They will guide you through the payment process.

Being able to pay your BMO line of credit from another bank gives you the flexibility to manage your finances as you see fit. Whether you choose online banking, a mobile app, or calling customer service, find an option that suits your needs and ensures that your payments are made on time. Remember, making consistent, on-time payments to your line of credit is key to maintaining your credit score and financial health.
