Inc. said Wednesday it entered a bill payment deal with CheckFree Corp. (Nasdaq:CKFR - news), an electronic billing company. The company said in a statement that it had started Yahoo!

Through the company's relationship with CheckFree, Yahoo! users can pay anyone electronically in the United States. Yahoo! users are eligible to sign up for a free three-month trial. Users who want to continue online bill payment after their free three months can choose from two payment plans. The first option is $2 per month, plus $0.40 per payment for an unlimited number of payments per month. The second option is $7 per month for up to 25 payments, plus $0.40 for each additional payment over 25. CheckFree will automatically debit the bank account from which users' Yahoo!
