Default Question on tax return

Hey guys tiger king here!
So I was just doing my taxes using turbo tax and filed electronically. At no point was I ever asked for payment info to pay electronically, so I'm just a bit confused.
Turbo tax says my tax file is pending acceptance/rejection and am wondering will I be able to then pay online after this has gone through, or just print the papers off and mail them in. making the whole point of filing online a bit pointless?

I just watched my girlfriend do her taxes using HR block and at the end was a very clear screen asking for payment options. Think I'll be using those guys next year.

I understand that this isn't really the place to be getting such information but I'd rather google and ask about first before sitting on the phone in a queue for ages.

Thanks for any help in advance.

If it is the IRS you want to pay, you can go online and pay them direct. https://www.irs.gov/payments Your SSN number will tie the payment to your return, and the IRS take up to $10 million in a single payment.

I know Turbo Tax asks for bank details for refunds to be paid into, but not sure about tax due.

thanks for your help Iansbury. yeah that seems to be the case, bit of an odd system they have going on there. guess I'll just pay them direct with that link you posted.

Thanks once again.

I used TurboTax home and business (Mac download version). I put in ACH bank details 3 times for the 2 payments and a refund. 1 Federal, 2 State.
