With Peoples State Bank's online bill pay, paying someone is easy with three ways to pay. 
  1. Email or text message (Electronic payment) - Once you've set up the payee, they'll receive a notification to provide their banking information for the funds to be deposited.
  2. Direct Deposit (Electronic payment) - If the person you're paying has already provided you with their account information, you can enter it when you set up the payee saving extra steps and time.
  3. Check (Mailed payment) - If the person you're paying would prefer, you can always have a check physically mailed to them.
