    1. How do I add a payee in Online Bill Pay?

      From a Web Browser

      • Log in to your Digital Banking account and choose Bill Pay in the top menu. 
      • To add a new payee, type the name of the payee in the “Need to pay someone new?” entry box near the top middle of the main payments page. 
      • As you type, what you are typing is matched to a known payee. 
      • If you see your payee in the drop down list, click the name and then click the Add button. Enter and confirm the account number and add an optional nickname. 
      • Select Add Payee.

      If you do not see the name in the drop down, don't worry, just complete typing the name of your payee and click the Add button. You will then be asked for some information about your payee:  

      • Account Number – This is your account number with the payee. Enter the account number as it appears on your bill. When making a payment to a person and not a business, you may not have an account number to provide. If this is the case, leave the account number field blank. 
      • Nickname - This field is optional, but if you have a different way to identify the payee besides the payee name, enter it here.
      • Payee Address – This is the address to which you send your payment. 
      • Payee Phone Number – Enter the phone number your biller provides for questions about your bill. If you are adding a company, look for a customer service phone number on your bill, statement, or invoice. If you are adding a person, use the person's work, home, or mobile number. 
      • Zip code – Enter the payee's zip code to which you send your payment. 

      When your payee is added, it will display at the top of your payee list on the main payments page. The next time you come back to the screen, your payees will display in alphabetical order. Bill Pay has its own FAQ in Digital Banking as well. You can find it on the Bill Pay screen in the lower right corner under I want to . . . 

      Mobile App

      • Open the Mobile App, tap Payment Center, then Bill Pay.
      • Select Payees at the top right of the screen

    3. How can I get a replacement for a broken or damaged debit card?

      To order a replacement for a damaged debit card, call Client Care at 1-800-731-2265 or visit any banking center.

      The normal timeframe for delivery is 7-10 business days. To receive a card sooner, you can instead choose to pay a $35 fee and receive the replacement card in two business days. The card must be ordered by 4pm on any business day for it to be delivered in two business days.

      A Lost or Stolen Debit Card
      If instead of a damaged debit card you need help with a lost or stolen card, please call us at 1-800-731-2265, option 2, in the US. You can report a lost or stolen card 24-hours a day. If you are outside of the US, call 1-812-422-2197. We can cancel or restrict your card, check for unauthorized transactions and order a new card for you.

    4. Can I cancel a payment in ZelleĀ®?

      You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn't yet enrolled with Zelle®. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn't yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel and then select Cancel This Payment.

      If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle®, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it's important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you've used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

      If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back. If you aren't able to get your money back, please call the Old National Client Care team at 1-800-731-2265 so we can help you.

      Scheduled or recurring payments sent directly to your recipient’s account number (instead of an email address or mobile number) are made available by Old National but are a separate service from Zelle® and can take one to three business days to process.

      You can cancel a payment that is scheduled in advance if the money has not already been deducted from your account.

    5. What is a commercial lending bank?

      Broadly speaking, there are two types of bank clients: Personal banking clients are individuals who need banking services, while commercial banking clients are larger businesses, companies or organizations that need banking services.

      A bank that lends to larger businesses would be a commercial lending bank. At Old National, we offer a variety of commercial lending services.

    10. What is the difference between a Money Market vs. CD?

      While both are savings accounts that offer the opportunity to earn interest on your deposit, they have important differences. A money market account typically has a variable interest rate, while allowing you to write checks and have regular access to your money. A certificate of deposit, or CD, typically has a fixed rate for a guaranteed term, provided you don’t make any withdrawals of your money during the term—typically, there is a penalty for an early withdrawal of deposited funds.
