VanillaDirect provides real-time cash payment solutions at Dollar General, Family Dollar, Walgreens, CVS Pharmacy and others. To make a payment at one of the VanillaDirect locations, you must have a barcode. To obtain a barcode, go to www.aec.smarthub.coop and follow the directions below (you must have your AEC coount number to sign into SmartHub). If you have downloaded the SmartHub app onto a mobile device, this can be done from that as well. When paying at a VanillaDirect location, it is cash only and there is a $1.50 service charge per transaction.
Step 1 – Select Bill & Pay
Step 2 – From the drop-down menu select “Pay by Cash”
Step 3 – Select “Print Barcode” to print and take to a VanillaDirect location. This same barcode can be used every time you pay with VanillaDirect.
Also from this page, you can search for VanillaDirect locations by address or zip code.
