Billing – Make A Payment Page
We are pleased to offer Automatic Draft (ACH), free of charge! Enrolling in ACH payments means that your regularly scheduled assessments will be automatically withdrawn from your designated bank account on the same day each billing period, between the 5th and 10th of the month. Check your portal for details regarding your region’s Auto Draft policies.
If you are enrolling in Auto Draft, please note that any enrollment after the 1st of the current month will not take effect until the following month. If you are enrolling in ACH payments after the 1st of the current month, please make a one-time payment or a standard check payment for the current assessment until the ACH is effective.
With Auto Draft, the draft amount will automatically change according to your Association’s yearly budget, so you won’t have to make any changes when your Assessment balance increases or decreases.
To enroll in Auto Draft, your account balance must be paid in full.
Zero Balance Required to Enroll in ACH
If you have a balance due, you can submit a one-time payment to bring your balance current, and then return to this page to enroll in Auto Draft.
