ClickSWITCH makes it easy for you to quickly and securely switch your current automated payments and direct deposits from your existing financial institution to your new or existing Old Point account.

Timing for each payment switch can vary depending on the type of payment, biller and the method needed to switch the payment. Automated payments and direct deposits typically take between 7-10 days to switch, but can be faster or slower depending on the billers. It's always a good idea to review your switch status page for the most current information regarding each switch before closing your old payment account(s).

We display the status for each automated payment or direct deposit on the "Status" tab. If a switch shows as "Completed" there's no need to contact the biller. For switches that are "Pending" for more than 10 days, you may want to contact the biller to confirm the status.

Your billing account number is required by the biller to ensure your identity and to update the account information in their system.

A number of billers are included in our system. If we do not have a biller's address, please use the address that is indicated on the payment confirmation or statement the biller sends you. You can also find most billers' payment addresses displayed in the "Help" or "Contact Us" areas of their websites.

You need at least some billing information to switch the payment, as billers require certain information to confirm your identity and complete the switch. Your name, biller's name and account number are required. For some billers, an address and phone number will populate automatically, however, if the biller is not in our database we'll need you to provide the biller's address and phone number as well.

You can easily add additional switches at any time! Simply log into your ClickSWITCH account and click the "Start a New Switch" button.

Monitoring your switch status is an important part of moving your account. It is advisable to keep enough money in your old account to cover each payment until the switch status for that payment has changed to "Completed," or you've confirmed with your billers that your payment account information is updated in their systems

We recommend keeping enough money in your old account for approximately 30 days, to cover each payment until the switch status is "Completed." This is especially important for any payments that might be due during 14 days after you initiate a switch.
