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
- Paymentus, based on the official Arvada payment link hosted at ipn.paymentus.com.
- Phone payment number
- (720) 898-7852 for 24/7 credit-card payments by phone. Utility Billing representatives use (720) 898-7070 Monday–Friday 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. for account questions, service transfers, restoration scheduling, and bill support.
- Pay-by-text
- The current Arvada billing pages reviewed do not publish a text-to-pay keyword or SMS enrollment number. Customers can create an online Paymentus account and enable AutoPay; the City also provides Ask Arvada for 24/7 electronic non-emergency water-problem reporting. No text-payment workflow is asserted.
- Mail-in payment address
- City of Arvada Utility Billing, 8101 Ralston Road, Arvada, CO 80002. The City instructs customers to include the account number and/or property address with a mailed payment.
- In-person payment
- City Hall, 8101 Ralston Road, Arvada, Colorado 80002, accepts in-person water-bill payments Monday–Friday 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Two payment drop boxes accept check or money order only: the drive-through at the Post Office, 5885 Allison Street, and the main entrance at City Hall, 8101 Ralston Road. Online payments and the 24/7 phone line are available outside counter hours. The City’s pages do not publish a separate satellite counter or after-hours cash desk.
- Digital payment methods
- The official payment page identifies online Paymentus account payments, online AutoPay, 24/7 telephone credit-card payments, and direct debit history; previous ACH auto-pay enrollments were canceled May 7, 2026 and customers must re-enroll online. The current pages do not enumerate specific card brands or digital wallets, so those are left to the portal’s checkout presentation.
- Online convenience fees
- Online AutoPay is described as available at no additional cost. The reviewed current pages do not state a separate one-time card convenience fee or percentage; customers should confirm any Paymentus transaction charge before submission.
