The City of Portland is making it more convenient for you to pay your utility bill—without any fees. We accept MasterCard and Visa credit/debit cards. Payments are received immediately.

The site provides a number of features:

  • Customers can create an account that allows them to access more features, including:
    • Automatic (recurring) online payments using your credit/debit card. With the auto pay feature, you never risk missing a payment. Many residents use a credit or debit card that gives them points for their purchases--including utility payments. 
    • View and pay multiple accounts at one time (business, multifamily accounts).
    • View billing and payment history.
    • View consumption history
  • Customers can make a one-time online payment without setting up an account. You will need your account number and the amount of your last payment.

You’ll receive a confirmation email upon the successful set-up of your account. Start set-up. (link)
