MyToronto Pay is a new platform offering residents a convenient and secure online payment option that allow users to pay from a bank account (electronic funds transfer) or by using a credit or debit card. MyToronto Pay users can also add and save their preferred payment methods to a personalized, secure digital wallet. More features and payment-related services are planned through 2022. More information on MyToronto Pay is available at http://www.toronto.ca/myt.../

Property owners can still make payments through their bank or financial institution using online banking or telephone banking, or by visiting a teller or ATM. Payments can also be made by enrolling in the pre-authorized tax payment (PTP) program, or by mailing a cheque. Payments submitted by mail need to reach the City before the due date, to avoid late fees and penalties. In-person counter services located at civic centres and City Hall are open; locations and hours of operation are available on the City’s website:

Property owners who are enrolled in the PTP program and who have recently moved are reminded to update their property account information with the City or with their financial institution, to avoid penalties and fees from payments being applied to the wrong account.
