Payment channels

Pay City of Denton Water Utilities / Utilities Customer Service

Use the provider’s verified online, telephone, mail, or counter instructions. Check the final confirmation screen for the amount, processing date, and any transaction fee before submitting.

Primary online route

Use the official payment portal

The direct portal is the fastest route when it is available. The provider identifies its payment gateway as InvoiceCloud; the City also offers a separate MyUsage prepaid-account platform and is beginning a Badger Meter AMI customer-data rollout.. Never enter account credentials into a lookalike site reached through an unsolicited message.

Alternative channels

Mail, text, and in-person payment instructions

Pay by text

2026 transaction pricing

Convenience fees

No additional fee is published for standard online payment through September 30, 2026. The City states that a 1.55% service fee for online and phone credit/debit-card payments processed through Utilities Customer Service takes effect October 1, 2026. eCheck and other non-card methods should be checked at checkout for any applicable fee; remote pay centers separately charge their own transaction fee.

Fees can vary by payment type, channel, account class, and processor terms. The checkout screen is the final fee disclosure.

Payment guidance

Choose the payment channel that fits your deadline

The safest payment path is the one published by City of Denton Water Utilities / Utilities Customer Service and matched to the account information on your bill. Online portals are convenient, but telephone, mail, counter, and drop-box options may follow different posting schedules and may use different fees.

For a routine payment, save the final confirmation page or IVR number and check when the transaction will post. For a same-day shut-off notice, do not assume that submitting a card payment automatically stops a field order; ask the provider what amount and confirmation are required.

Never send your account number, password, card details, or bank information to Water Ledger. Those details belong only on the provider’s verified payment channel or at an authorized counter.
