Abstract: A computer-based system and method calculates and facilitates periodic revenue accrual for making larger, less frequent payments of estimated taxes by electronic messaging. A service host enables a plurality of payers to make set-asides at various levels as needed, on an individual or batch basis. Payer preferences are applied to satisfy variable payment intervals, amounts, and available resources. The obligation, required payments, and set-aside schedules are recalculated as needed, under payer and/or system control. Excess accruals are minimized; set-aside schedules are configurable. Automatic data links move information and command fund transfers from the payer's bank, to accrue funds and make payments to other accounts. The service host provides individual or batch taxpayer enrollment with the taxing authority for tax payment by electronic messages, and makes the tax payments by transmission of individual payment messages or by batch file transmission to the taxing authority.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for managing funds in anticipation of paying at least two financial obligations, such as an estimated tax payment and a mortgage payment. The due dates and amounts due are determined from customer financial information. During an escrow period leading up to the first obligation due date, amounts of money are transferred on at least two occasions from a customer account into a second account, whereby the combined value of the transferred amounts substantially matches the estimated tax or other amount due for the first obligation. The transfer amounts and/or timing are adjusted so as to maintain sufficient funds in the customer account for paying the other obligations. The transferred money is used to automatically pay the first obligation on or near the due date. In embodiments, the customer can access the money in the second account until the first financial obligation is paid.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention may provide a method and system for accepting financial information from a customer for generating an estimated tax due to the taxing authority and a date by which the estimated tax is due, and periodically impounding an amount of money from an account held by the customer, where each amount impounded is less than the estimated tax and the combined value of the amounts impounded by the date substantially match the estimated tax.
