PAYMENT METHODS
HOW CAN I PAY MY UPC BILL?
Important: This information applies exclusively to customers who use UPC via a cable connection.
You can choose between the following payment methods to pay your UPC bill:
eBill
With eBill you can receive your UPC bill directly in your e-banking account and can authorise its payment there. Simply register for eBill in your e-banking account (bank or PostFinance). You will find further information on our support page.
Direct debit (LSV) & CH-DD direct debit
If you activate the LSV+ (direct debit) or CH-DD (CH-DD debit direct), the bill amount will be debited from your account automatically. As a bank (LSV+) or PostFinance (CH-DD) customer, simply send the signed form to your bank or PostFinance to activate direct debit as the payment method for your UPC bills.
Online bank transfer
You can also pay your bill by online banking.
Payment without QR code reference:
If a payment is made without a QR code reference (e.g. using only the IBAN in online banking), a fee of CHF 7.50 will be charged.
Paying at the post office counter
For payments at the post office counter you need a payment slip. Please note that there is a fee of CHF 3.50 per payment when using an orange payment slip; CHF 7.50 when using a red payment slip (one payment per year free of charge).
Changing the payment type
It may happen that switching over to the newly selected payment method will not take place until the following month.
Example: Your request to switch payment methods has overlapped with your current invoice being sent.
Important: In this case, please pay your invoice again with the previous payment method.

You can always find the exact payment date on the upper right of your UPC bill. If you like, you can select in My UPC whether you would prefer to always pay your bills at the beginning, middle or end of the month.
