ANNOUNCER:

DID YOU KNOW THAT WALKING CAN BE GOOD FOR YOUR BUDGET?  IT’S TRUE. 

WESTERN UNION HAS CREATED TIPS ON HEALTHY WAYS TO MANAGE YOUR WALLET AND WELL-BEING. SO LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT SIMPLE WAYS TO GET YOUR BILL PAYMENT SKILLS IN SHAPE STARTING NOW. 

TIP NUMBER ONE: TIME YOUR BILL PAYMENTS. WHEN MONEY IS TIGHT, LATE FEES AND INTEREST RATES CAN BREAK YOUR BUDGET.  WESTERN UNION® BILL PAYMENT SERVICES MAKE ON-TIME PAYMENTS A BREEZE. 

YOU CAN PAY THAT UTILITY BILL IN THE GROCERY STORE WHEN YOU’RE DOING YOUR FRIDAY AFTERNOON SHOPPING, OR AT THE CHECK CASHER  WHEN YOU ARE CASHING YOUR PAYROLL CHECK. 

TIP NUMBER TWO: BE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE BILL PAYMENT OPTIONS AVAILABLE AND PRIORITIZE YOUR BILLS AROUND THEIR DUE DATES.

CONSIDER USING A MIX OF METHODS THAT WORK WITH YOUR CASH FLOW INCLUDING ONLINE, MOBILE AND SCHEDULED RECURRING PAYMENTS, AND DON’T FORGET THE CONVENIENCE OF A WALK-IN PAYMENT. A BRISK STROLL TO A WALK-IN PAYMENT LOCATION CAN BE GREAT FOR HEALTH AND MONEY!
