To make payment online click Here
Montgomery County Building Regulations is excited to announce the release of a new credit card and Echeck/ACH payment portal through our partnership with Point & Pay. Effective January 4, 2021, our online payment options are expanding to include debit card, credit card and Echeck payment options.
The following service fees will be applied to each transaction through the new payment portal.
Credit/Debit Cards: 2.30% with a minimum service charge of $2.00 per transaction.
Echecks/ACH: $0.50 per transaction
The new online payment portal will allow entry of multiple items in a single transaction. What this means is that customers can complete payments for more than one permit or item in a single transaction and the service fee will be applied to the transaction – Echeck’s are only $0.50 per transaction and credit/debit cards would be calculated per the 2.30% minimum $2.00 transaction criteria.
