Pay your rates by direct debit

Pay your rates by direct debit 

We can arrange a direct debit option to spread your rates payments, with a monthly plan. 

If you are setting up a new direct debit to pay your rates, you can choose from three options:

1. One annual payment on the due date of 20 September. 
2. Pay your current rates for 2022-23 in full by the due date of 20 September 2022, and we will then set up a 12 month payment arrangement to clear your estimated 2023-24 rates by 20 September 2023.
3. Include this year’s rates balance into your direct debit payments. This means that you will initially pay a higher amount each month to clear the current 2022-23 rates plus the estimated 2023-24 rates by 20 September 2023. 

Please note: If you sign up to direct debit you will not be charged a penalty fee on the 21 September, as long as your direct debit payments are paid.

Financial hardship

If you are currently experiencing financial hardship, and direct debit is not an option, our Rates team can help set up an alternative payment arrangement. Please tall our team +64 6 835 9200 for a confidential discussion.
