SANTA CLARA, Calif.-Billeo, a personal finance tool that helps consumers pay bills and shop online, and NetSpend, a provider of prepaid reloadable debit cards, recently unveiled an online service designed to help consumers pay bills with a NetSpend card.
The companies said the new service gives millions of unbanked Americans access to financial tools that the majority of consumers now enjoy. Under the terms of the agreement, consumers who have a NetSpend card will be able to access a searchable online directory of billers that accept the card. Billeo will provide a free, downloadable toolbar to help cardholders manage their bills.
The service, called the "Biller Directory," will be available on www.netspend.com as part of NetSpend's suite of Bill Payment Services. By clicking on the "Pay Bills" tab on the main menu of NetSpend's website, cardholders will have access to more than 9,200 company websites where they can search for their billers and pay bills instantly with their card. Cardholders can also download a "Bill Management Toolbar" that will enable them to save their card information in a secure eWallet, save website passwords and automatically fill-in forms. In addition, Billeo's Shopping Assistant will enable cardholders to easily save and search for online receipts.
