Payment research for this provider
The compiled notes distinguish confirmed channels from details the public material did not expose. Fields containing only an unavailable-information marker are grouped in the research record below.
- Payment platform
- iPaySmart; West Valley’s enterprise catalog separately identifies Tyler Technologies as the customer-information-system vendor and Chase Bank as the electronic-payment processor.
- Phone payment number
- (909) 875-1804, then press 2. The automated system is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, supports account information, payment history, bill payment, and fax receipts, and accepts Visa or MasterCard; gift cards are not accepted.
- Pay-by-text
- The District’s iPaySmart launch material says the new portal can send text notifications and provides the option to pay through text after the customer registers. The official material does not publish a text short code, keyword, or complete SMS opt-in sequence. Customers should create the iPaySmart account at the portal, verify the mobile number and notification preferences, and use the portal’s enrollment prompts; if the text option is not displayed, call Customer Service at (909) 875-1804 rather than sending payment to an unverified number.
- Mail-in payment address
- West Valley Water District, P.O. Box 102060, Pasadena, CA 91189-2060. The February 2026 bill illustration also identifies the District’s administrative mailing address as P.O. Box 920, Rialto, CA 92377-0920; customers should use the remittance address printed on the current bill for lockbox processing and include the account number with the payment.
- In-person payment
- The main customer-service office is West Valley Water District, 855 W. Base Line Road, Rialto, CA 92376. Customer-service counter hours are Monday 8:00 a.m.–5:30 p.m., Tuesday 9:00 a.m.–5:30 p.m., and Wednesday through Friday 8:00 a.m.–5:30 p.m.; it is closed Saturday and Sunday. A payment drop box is located in front of the Customer Service entrance at 855 W. Base Line Road. Customers can also pay cash through PayNearMe at participating CVS Pharmacy, 7-Eleven, and Family Dollar locations, and at J Check Cashing, 11391 Cedar Avenue, Unit A, Bloomington, CA 92316, open daily 9:30 a.m.–6:00 p.m.; J Check Cashing payments may take two days to reach the District. In-person payments should be made with legal tender, check, money order, or the card types accepted at the counter; confirm any card limitations with the office before visiting.
- Digital payment methods
- The iPaySmart portal accepts Visa, MasterCard, and ACH/bank-account payments and supports one-time payments, recurring payments, autopay, online statements, and text-payment capability where enabled on the registered account. The automated telephone system accepts Visa or MasterCard. PayNearMe provides a cash barcode route at participating retailers. The District does not publish Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Venmo, or other digital-wallet support on the reviewed 2026 pages.
- Online convenience fees
- The District says a convenience fee applies when a customer pays by credit or debit card and can be avoided by linking a bank account. The reviewed official 2026 portal material does not state the exact flat dollar amount or percentage, so the precise card surcharge is not publicly documented; ACH/bank-account payment is identified as the no-convenience-fee alternative.
