Sultan: New option to pay city bills online

Sultan residents can now save on stamps by paying their city bills online or over the phone.

The new method expands payment options. Residents can still make payments by visiting City Hall in person, depositing payments at the community center drop box, or mailing their checks.

The city cannot pay transaction fees. To cover the costs, a $2 convenience fee is applied to checking and savings payments and a 4.167 percent online convenience fee is applied to debit and credit card payments.
