Paying your rates

Credit card

Please note: When paying online by credit card, you may receive two confirmation emails. This does not mean that payment has been processed twice. We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this issue.

You can pay your rates online with Visa and MasterCard credit and debit cards.

Fees

An online convenience fee of 2.0 per cent per transaction will apply. A minimum online convenience fee of $2.50 applies to all card types. The fee is at the Banks discretion and is subject to change.

Auckland Council does not receive any part of this fee and it will appear as a separate transaction on your credit card statement.

Check with your credit card issuer for any other fees or charges that may apply. This credit card transaction is carried out in terms of the arrangement between you and your credit card issuer. 

 

Processing time

Be sure to allow time before your payment due date for processing the transaction. If you make your payment before 10.30pm New Zealand time your payment will appear in your Auckland Council rates account the following business day. Transactions after 10.30pm will appear after two working days.

Currency conversion

If you make a payment with a credit card issued outside New Zealand, any currency conversion will be done in accordance with the terms and conditions of the card. Your card issuer may charge currency conversion fees. 

Payment confirmation

You will be emailed payment confirmation if you provide an email address.
