Pay online

Welcome to the Great Yarmouth Borough Council 24 hour secure internet payments service. You may make a variety of payments using this secure site with most major credit or debit cards, including Visa, Mastercard, Maestro and Visa Electron (not Diners Club or American Express).

Alternatively, did you know you can sign up to pay your Council Tax or business rates using our Direct Debit online service? You can do this via OPENPortal (opens new window). If you already pay by Direct Debit, and you have signed up for OPENPortal (opens new window), you can use this online service to update your bank details or change your payment dates. If you do not have an OPENPortal account, you can complete this Direct Debit application/amend payment form (opens new window).

You can also sign up for eBilling to have your Council Tax or business rates bill sent to you by email rather than post.

You may pay for any of the accounts shown below via our 24 hour secure internet payments service by clicking on the selected item:
