Introducing

MuniciPay™

Our MuniciPay™ solution provides your tax office the ability to accept secure online payments from individual taxpayers through your website. Using our fully featured shopping cart, taxpayers can locate their parcel(s), add them to their cart, setup automated payments, and submit their payment using credit and debit cards, or eCheck.

  • Secure Online Payments for Government Obligations

    MuniciPay™ empowers your government office to accept secure online payments from individuals and businesses through your website. Whether taxes, licensing fees, fines, or other government obligations, our fully featured platform enables payors to locate their account, add items to their cart, set up automated payments, and submit payments using credit cards, debit cards, or eCheck.

  • Payments from Anywhere, at Any Time

    Your payers can make payments 24/7/365 online using their phone, tablet, or computer, by phone using our robust automated toll-free IVR, or in-person at your office using our fast and secure EMV devices. Payments are batched daily, and we’ll produce a perfectly balanced payment file that integrates seamlessly with your government software.

  • Competitive Credit Card / eCheck Rates

    We offer some of the most competitive rates today thanks to our strong relationships with card brands and processors. Combining these rates with our comprehensive product and user experience delivers the best value for your office and payers.

  • Seamless Integration with Autoagent EscrowCloud

    MuniciPay™ is the perfect compliment to Autoagent EscrowCloud and will tell your tax payers if their escrow company is planning or has paid their tax bill. It will block second payment attempts by either side to eliminate duplicate payments.

Yuma County, CO
Very Easy. Yes, the number of refunds we had was much lower than in the past. We did have refunds on a couple of properties, but that was due to the delay in processing. When we first received our file and ran a trial, we would have had no refunds to issue.
