A.
Your regular monthly payment amount will be deducted from your account once a month, and applied on the last business day of the month.

Q. What are the benefits of CheckmateTM?
A.
Using CheckmateTM is the most convenient way to make your student loan/account payment. You will save time and money, as well as eliminate the hassle of writing checks.

Q. Is it safe?
A.
ABSOLUTELY! No one has access to your account, except you and your bank.

Q. What if I change my mind later and want to cancel the service?
A.
That's easy, too. Just contact ACS if you want to discontinue the service. Please allow us 30 days to resume normal billing.

Q. What if I have more than one account?
A.
Include the account number for every account you wish to have automatically deducted.
