Provider-specific findings

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
Paya Citizen Portal, a Paya/Nuvei payment platform. City FAQs state that Citizen Portal replaced the former Municipay account system and requires customers to create a new account.
Phone payment number
888-291-0977. The City’s payment-options page says the IVR requires the utility account number and payment amount, charges a 3% transaction fee, and is separate from the Utility Billing office, which does not take payment by phone.
Pay-by-text
The City’s new-service form offers an opt-in checkbox for text notifications, and Denison Alerts/CivicReady can send public-works and water notifications by SMS or email. The reviewed pages do not publish a text-to-pay keyword or payment-by-text checkout workflow; text enrollment is for alerts, not bill settlement.
Mail-in payment address
City of Denison Utilities Customer Service Division, P.O. Box 347, Denison, TX 75021. The City instructs customers to include the payment stub and write the account number on a check or money order.
In-person payment
Utilities Customer Service Division, 300 W Main Street, Denison, TX 75020. The City accepts check, cash, credit card, and money order at the office; current posted customer-service hours should be confirmed before visiting. A drop box is in the alley behind City Hall (Music Alley); payments dropped after 5:00 p.m. are applied the next business day. Customers can also use the City’s listed bank-draft process and the online/IVR channels.
Digital payment methods
The Paya Citizen Portal supports online debit/credit-card payments and ACH payments. The City also offers no-fee automatic bank draft through an authorization form and a 24-hour IVR card-payment line. Current online fees are 2.75% for debit/credit and a flat $1.00 for ACH; phone payments are listed at 3%.
Online convenience fees
The FY2026 City fee schedule lists a 4% fee on all credit/debit-card payments, while the current Payment Options page lists 2.75% online and in-office card fees and a $1.00 ACH fee; the IVR page lists 3%. These official pages are version/channel-specific and conflict, so the customer must rely on the final Paya/IVR checkout quote. A 10% past-due balance charge is separate from the card convenience fee.
