Payment Questions

What forms of payment can I use?

You can pay with credit or debit card or you may issue an electronic check from your bank account (checking or savings).

What do I need to do if I already had ACH set up prior to the new system?

There is nothing further you need to do.  Your ACH will continue to be withdrawn from your checking account as in the past.  If you would like to receive your statements by email or view your statement online, you would need to register online with our new payment processor.  Otherwise, there is nothing further for you to do.

What is a service or convenience fee?

A non-refundable fee added to an invoice to cover various administrative costs associated with billing and accepting your payment.  The fee is $2.25 when paying by credit card or EFT/ACH.  There is an additional $0.95 surcharge when paying by phone. The maximum payment permitted per transaction is $250.00.

Can I tell if my payment has been posted?

Yes, simply login to your account and select “View paid or closed invoices.”

How will I know that my payment has been accepted?

After you submit your payment, you will see a payment confirmation screen.  It will contain your payment confirmation message.  It will show an approved number for credit cards or a processed number for electronic check.  You will also receive a confirmation email after your transaction is submitted.  The email will include your account number, invoice number, amount paid and confirmation message.  If your electronic check does not pass through the bank, you will receive an email informing you of the rejected payment.

How long will my payment history be maintained?

24 months is the standard retention period.
