In a distribution deal similar to the Visa.com partnership launched earlier this year, Billeo is now powering biller-direct payments for Target's REDcard (see inset). See previous coverage here.
Billeo received an Online Banking Report Best of the Web award in 2005 for its innovative toolbar-based payment services (see 15 March 2005 post).
How it works
New users start by searching for credit-card-accepting billers via zipcode and company search (see screenshot below).
To schedule a payment and use the other tools, users must first register with Billeo. While the initial biller-search screen runs under Target branding, the sign-up page and subsequent user interfaces do not maintain any Target branding.
Previous Billeo users can skip the registration process and simply sign in to their previous Billeo account.
