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
- City of Richardson Discovery utility-billing portal (the public City pages do not identify a separate payment-gateway vendor)
- Mail-in payment address
- City of Richardson, P.O. Box 831907, Richardson, TX 75083-1907. The Water Customer Service office itself is at 2360 Campbell Creek Blvd. Suite 550, Richardson TX 75082, with a separate general City mailing address of P.O. Box 830309.
- In-person payment

The current payment page states that drive-through service is temporarily unavailable and the night depository is closed because of the City Hall fire. Customers should bring both portions of the bill to the Customer Service counter; no current staffed third-party payment locations are listed.

- The City accepts American Express, Discover, MasterCard, and Visa for online account payments and live phone payments. It also provides no-cost automatic bank drafting from a checking account and recurring credit-card payment, plus paperless e-billing. Cash and checks are accepted in person for service deposits and account applications; the current public payment page does not list Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or eCheck as separate supported methods.
- Online convenience fees
- No additional cost is published for automatic bank drafting or recurring payments. The City does not state a separate 2026 online card convenience fee on the current Pay Your Bill page; confirm any checkout disclosure in the Discovery portal before submission.
