e-Bill (view and pay your bill online)

An EBMUD e-Bill is a complete electronic version of the paper bill you currently receive, available online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Paying your EBMUD bill with e-Bill is free. A secure log-in and 128-bit encryption protects your online bill and ensures that only you have access to your billing information. You simply review and decide when you pay your e-Bill online with a click of a mouse. You can make a one-time payment or set up automatic payments. 

When you sign up for e-Bill, you will no longer receive paper bills and agree to pay your water bill electronically. You can cancel your e-Bill service at any time and receive paper bills again for your next billing cycle. This service is offered through EBMUD's third-party vendor CheckFree.

Direct Payment Program (Automatic Debit)

You can have your bill payments automatically deducted from your bank account by signing up for our Direct Payment Program.
