Online Bill Payment

Overview
Payments may be made online using Visa, American Express, Discover, and Mastercard. Debit cards may be used as long as they are set up to act as a credit card and do not require entry of a PIN number.

Online payments can be made for the categories below. For all other payments via credit card please call the Finance Department at (302) 539-8011 so we may verify the amount due and that we have all necessary information before taking your card information over the phone.

Water Bill
Semi-annual water bills for the six months ending March 31 and September 30 are sent shortly after these dates and due within six weeks. Penalties will be assessed if payment is not received by the due date printed on the bill.

If you would like your water bill automatically deducted from your bank account, use our Automatic Payment Form to supply your bank information, along with a voided check. Your semi-annual bill will be mailed to you and the total amount due will be automatically deducted from your bank account within a few days of the due date. The form and voided check may be mailed to PO Box 109, Bethany Beach, DE 19930 or emailed to finance@townofbethanybeach.com.
