The only requirement for making a Discover Credit Card Payment Online is to have a checking account. With this facility, Discover card holders can make payments even on the due date, at or before 5pm EST. They can track back their payment history for the previous seven months and can even cancel a scheduled payment.

Discover Credit Card Payment Online: Process

First, a card holder needs to get registered for making online payments. Online registration is a short process that includes filling in information, such as the card number, expiry date and three digit card ID number.

Once the registration is done, card holders need to go to their ‘Personal Profile’ and select ‘Update Your Personal Information.’ Here they can change their account information, besides managing their online payments. For setting up online payment, consumers need to submit the checking account number, bank name and routing number. This information is saved for future use and can be used for scheduling a payment as well.

However, consumers who are enrolled with Direct Payment plan need to cancel their direct payment services before enrolling for online payment. This can be done by calling the customer service number.

Discover Credit Card Payment Online: Canceling a Payment

A consumer can cancel the payment by making a request before 5pm EST (for it to be effective the same day.) This can be done by clicking on ‘View/Cancel Pending Payments’ and selecting the payment that needs to be cancelled.  Phone payments can also be cancelled by 5:30 pm by contacting customer services.

Consumers can also opt out of the online payment service by going to the account management section and selecting the appropriate options. However, it is important to remember that once this is done, all other scheduled and in process payments get cancelled as well. Therefore, consumers looking to pay off their credit and opt out of the online payment service need to wait till their payments get posted.

Discover Credit Card Payment Online: Frequency

Discover credit card users can make online payments every fourth day. This means that if a consumer makes a payment on the sixth day of a month, his next payment can be made on or after the tenth day. Discover credit card payment online services are accessible 24*7. Therefore, card holders can use this service to avoid late fees and finance charges by planning their payments ahead of time.
