How TXT-2-PAY works

Once enrolled in TXT-2-PAY, you will receive a free text message six days before your wireless bill due date. To complete payment, you must respond to this text message; your bill will not be paid if we do not receive a response to the balance due notification.

Note: TXT-2-PAY cannot be used in conjunction with AutoPay, and isn’t available when wireless service is interrupted.

  2. Select your payment method and enter payment information if prompted.
  3. If you have multiple numbers on your account, select the wireless number to receive the TXT-2-PAY free text message.
  4. Select Continue. If you have AutoPay set up on your account, you’ll be prompted to cancel it.
  5. Review the TXT-2-PAY Terms and Conditions and select Submit.
