Update: New Account Settings Section

Both in preparation for the future (wink, wink) and to improve the current version, we've redone the Account Settings aspects of billQ. Previously the Account Settings were displayed in a lightbox-style overlay. We started to outgrow this, and overall it was a bit clunky. So we've created a dedicated Account section located at http://www.mybillq.com/account/. From this new section... Read More

Experimenting With Banner Ads Again

Backstory: Even though we planned on having the Free version of billQ be ad-supported, we've been struggling with a good way to handle the ads. We tried Google Ads for a little while, but eventually just scrapped third-party ads all together and instead just ran an ad promoting the coupon code for billQ Free users who wanted to upgrade to billQ Plus.

Update: Additional Reminder Settings

We just made an update to the Reminder Settings that some of you should find useful. Previously when choosing a date in advance of your due date to receive your reminder, it was a start date. This meant that if you chose to receive your reminder starting 7 days before your due date, you would also receive it every date in between then and the due date (until you paid or deleted the bill or stop...

Mini-Update: Reply-to-Reminders with Amount

We just launched a small improvement to the reply-to-reminders feature that turns out to be very helpful. Now, when you get your reminder email, and you reply stating that your bill is paid, you can also include the amount the bill was paid for. The formatting is very simple, you just reply, as usual, with the first word of the email being 'Paid' and then you add the amount in parentheses. ... Read More
