Automatic payment

AutoPay and Monthly Manager for SPRWS Customers

AutoPay is SPRWSโ€™ recommended automatic payment option. Payments are withdrawn on the due date from checking/savings, debit/credit card or digital wallet. SPRWS says checking or savings AutoPay can be a fee-free way to pay.

Monthly Manager is different. It provides a fixed monthly payment based on average water usage over the last 12 months. It is available to quarterly customers only and has no charge. Every three months, the customer receives a report showing actual consumption, and the monthly amount is recalculated once a year.

Before setting up AutoPay or Monthly Manager

  • Open the official Paymentus portal.
  • Have customer number and account number ready.
  • Choose checking/savings if you want the lower-fee route.
  • Confirm AutoPay is active before skipping manual payment.
  • Call customer service if you need to cancel or change an existing AutoPay setup.
  • Ask customer service about Monthly Manager if you are a quarterly customer.
AutoPay safety: Do not assume automatic payment is active until the portal or customer service confirms it. Keep paying manually until the setup is complete.
Mail and drop boxes

Pay by Mail, Cash, Check, Money Order or Drop Box

SPRWS says check or money order payments can be made in person, by return mail with the bill stub, or in drop boxes. Drop boxes are located in the visitor parking area and outside the main entrance door at 1900 Rice Street, and are available 24 hours a day.

High bill help

High Saint Paul Water Bill, Usage and Leak Checks

SPRWS bills are based on water used. Watering a lawn or garden, adding occupants to a home, or having a leak can increase your water bill. SPRWS says one water unit equals 748 gallons, and an average family of four uses about 18 units per 91-day billing cycle.

Your bill shows current usage and last-year usage, which can help you quickly see whether usage is trending up. If your bill jumps without a clear reason, check for leaks before assuming the meter is wrong.

High bill checklist

  • Compare current usage with last yearโ€™s usage on the bill.
  • Check toilets for silent leaks.
  • Check faucets, hose bibs, basement lines and water softener equipment.
  • Review lawn watering, garden watering and new household occupancy.
  • Use SPRWS meter reading guidance if you need to understand the meter.
  • Call 651-266-6350 if you need account-specific guidance.
Useful tip: A toilet leak can be expensive and quiet. Add food coloring to the tank, wait without flushing, and check if color appears in the bowl.

USA Water Bill Payment Safety & Assistance Tool

Before you pay a water bill online, use this quick helper to avoid wrong portals, prepare your account details, check late-payment risk, estimate possible leak usage, and know what to ask the utility office.

Payment checklist Late bill risk check Leak estimate Call script

1. Safe payment portal checklist

Use this before clicking any payment page. Water bill scams often copy city names, so users should confirm the portal from the official city, county, utility, or customer-service page.

Select your situation and click the button to get a safer payment checklist.

What to verify before paying

  • The payment link opens from an official city, county, utility, or contracted payment provider page.
  • The account number, service address, and customer name match your printed or digital bill.
  • You understand any card, phone, or third-party convenience fee before submitting payment.
  • If your bill is already past due, confirm whether online payment alone stops disconnection.
  • Save the confirmation number, date, amount, payment method, and screenshot or email receipt.
Tip: If the article provides a phone number, call the utility billing office before paying when the bill is very late, service is off, or you received a shutoff notice.

2. Due date and late-payment risk check

This does not replace your official bill, but it helps you decide whether to pay online, call the billing office, or visit in person.

Enter your due date and bill status to see the safest next action.

Late bill action guide

0โ€“2 days Normal online payment is usually fine, but keep your receipt.
3โ€“10 days Check for late fee, grace period, and posting delay.
Shutoff Call first. Ask about reconnection timing and required amount.
Online payments may not post instantly for every city or third-party processor. If you are close to shutoff, confirm with the official billing office.

3. Possible leak usage estimator

A sudden water bill increase can happen because of toilet leaks, irrigation leaks, meter issues, estimated reads, or seasonal outdoor use.

Enter your normal and current bill to get a practical high-bill checklist.

Fast leak checks at home

  • Turn off taps and appliances, then check if the water meter still moves.
  • Put food coloring in the toilet tank; if color enters the bowl without flushing, the toilet may leak.
  • Check irrigation, hose bibs, water softener, humidifier, and outdoor spigots.
  • Compare current usage with the same month last year if your bill shows history.
  • Ask the utility if they offer a leak adjustment, high-bill review, or meter re-read.

4. Utility office call script generator

Use this when you need to call customer service about payment, reconnection, high bills, payment plans, or service changes.

Your call script will appear here.

Keep these details ready

  • Account number or customer ID from the bill.
  • Service address and billing address.
  • Payment confirmation number if already paid.
  • Shutoff notice date, reconnect amount, or past-due balance.
  • Meter reading, photo, or bill copy if asking about high usage.
Best practice: Always write down the representative name, call date, time, promised action, and case/reference number.
