- Payment platform
- InvoiceCloud / OneMeter
- Phone payment number
- (605) 367-8131, the Utility Billing interactive voice response system, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for card payments.

Customers register at onemeter.siouxfalls.gov, link the account using the bill information, provide a mobile number, and authorize the saved payment method when prompted. Standard message and data rates may apply; the reviewed pages do not publish a separate keyword or short code.

Dakota Avenue, Sioux Falls, during regular business hours, Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Accepted in-person methods include cash, check, credit/debit card, and the no-fee automated ACH payment plan.
