Berrien County has entered into an agreement with Government Payment Services to process credit card payments for delinquent real and personal property taxes via the internet. (NOTE: this is for "delinquent" only.)
A kiosk workstation is available in the Treasurer's Office, or you may pay via your home PC as well. In either case, you must get the following from the Treasurer's Office before you can make your payment online:
Pay Location Code
15-digit Property Number
Total Amount Due
NOTE: A 5% convenience fee will be added to the total amount due.
The payment process is very easy. From the kiosk station (or from https://www.govpaynow.com/ on your home PC), simply enter the Pay Location Code given to you by the Treasurer's Office, your 15-digit property number, and the amount owed. Enter a valid MasterCard, VISA, Discover, or American Express card.
Once the transaction has been approved and concluded and if you provided your email address, you will will receive a confirmation of payment via email.
It's that simple. If you have any questions, please call the Treasurer's Office.
