GovPayNet accepts the major credit and debit card brands for payments 24/7 online using the Marion County Treasurer’s website, or by phone using GovPayNet’s call center (1-888-604-7888). Tax payers are also able to make payments in our office during normal business hours. 

Cardholders can make payments on their own behalf or on behalf of friends or family. They need only have some basic information regarding the payment easily provided by the Marion County Treasurer’s office and also available on the tax bill.

Cardholders pay a service fee at the time of their transaction. There is an additional fee for payment by phone via the GovPayNet call center (1-888-604-7888). There are no charges to Marion County Treasurer for participation in the GovPayNet service.

“Taxpayers can pay their property tax obligations to the Marion County Treasurer in the same way they handle other transactions, anytime, day or night, and without having to write a check, carry large sums of cash, or wait in line,” explained Jan Draper, Marion County Treasurer.

GovPayNet accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. “Each business day, we reconcile the previous day’s payments with the government agency and then electronically forward the cardholders’ payments in full to the agency’s bank account,” said Mark MacKenzie, CEO of GovPayNet. “We also handle all cardholder calls and inquiries about any payment issues,” he added.
