- Digital payment methods
- Free online and telephone payment is available from a checking or savings account; residential customers may also use Visa or MasterCard credit cards. Automatic payment can debit checking/savings or a residential Visa/MasterCard, and the current pages do not verify American Express, Discover, ACH processor surcharges, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Venmo, or text-to-pay. Returned-payment accounts may be placed on cash-only status and then require cash, cashier’s check, or money order.
- Online convenience fees
- $0 for the current LADWP online and residential telephone payment services. LADWP explicitly describes one-time online payments, automatic payments, and 1-877-MYPAYDWP residential phone payments as free of charge; the current pages do not publish a separate electronic-check or digital-wallet fee because those methods are not verified.
