Paying Your Bill by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)

*One-Time*

Paying your Sacramento County Consolidated Utility bill by using a One-Time Electronic Funds Transfer gives you the power to choose when and how much you wish to pay.

When you use "Pay now" on My Utilities​, your bill payment is deducted within 1 to 2 business days from your checking or savings account automatically:

  • Saves You Time – no more checks to write or envelopes to stuff
  • Saves You Money – no stamps means no postage costs or gas to drop your payment off in person
  • Cutting Stress – no more worries about late payments or late fees
  • Improving Security – electronic accounting documents your payments

To initiate and make a one-time EFT payment, simply log into My Utilities​.  Select "Pay now" from the quick link menu bar on the right hand side of the screen.

How does it work?

  1. Once a "Pay now" request has been submitted, our systems import the data and perform validation checks to ensure the bank account details entered are compliant.  If we detect any issues, we will respond via e-mail within 1-2 business day so that the issue can be rectified.
  2. If the data entered passes all validations, your account will be updated with the information entered and a confirmation e-mail sent to you confirming your request.
  3. The payment amount requested will be sent to your bank within 1 business day for withdrawal.
  4. Proof of payment appears on your bank statement and on your next billing statement, so you will know how much you paid.​​
