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
- Phone payment number
- 1-855-894-2392 (toll-free automated payment line; enter the CID and account number, pressing # after each value)
- Pay-by-text
- The City’s current utility-billing pages document text and email consumption alerts through the customer portal, but do not document a text-to-pay enrollment keyword or bill-payment SMS short code. Customers can register in the portal, set communication preferences, and configure usage-threshold or continuous-use alerts by text; those alerts are not represented as a payment authorization channel.
- Mail-in payment address
- Utility Billing, City of Round Rock, 221 E. Main Street, Round Rock, TX 78664. The City directs customers to include the payment stub or account information so the mailed check or money order can be credited to the correct CID/account.
- In-person payment
- The Utility Billing lobby is on the first floor of City Hall, 221 E. Main Street, Round Rock, Texas 78664, and is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding City holidays. The City accepts in-person payment at the lobby and provides self-service cash options through the online portal: a portal-generated cash barcode can be used at participating retailers such as CVS, Walgreens, Dollar General, and Office Depot for a $2.95 retailer transaction fee, while Walmart MoneyCenter accepts cash, debit cards, or Ucards for a $1.50 fee. A 24-hour deposit box along Bagdad Avenue at City Hall accepts checks and money orders only; the City’s current page does not present a separate staffed counter-hours schedule beyond the lobby hours.
- Digital payment methods
- The Paymentus customer portal accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, electronic check, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Walmart Pay. AutoPay can draft from Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, checking, or savings accounts. The automated phone system is documented for account-based payment, and the City also supports bank bill pay. Portal payments made by 7:00 p.m. Central Time are posted the next day; later payments may post within 48 hours.
