Online Payments

Make small payments to the City, for example pay your Bylaw Ticket or pay to renew your licenses, online using an e-transfer! (This option is usually not used for tax or utility payments.)

Pay on-line by Interac e-Transfer

You may pay small amounts on-line by sending money via Interac e-Transfer directly to the City.


All you need is access to online or mobile banking offering Interac e-Transfer.

How to make payment?

  • Sign onto your online banking account and select the “Interac e-Transfer” navigation link
  • Enter recipient name: City of Williams Lake
  • Enter recipient email address pay@williamslake.ca
  • Enter the amount you would like to pay
  • In the message box enter information about your payment (we need to know who is paying and what payment is for - for example, enter the Bylaw ticket number or information about your license and make sure the number / information is correct – you do not want to pay for somebody else. You may want to provide your e-mail address as well (optional), just in case we need to contact you about the payment.)
  • Security question – What am I paying?
  • Security answer – ticket (If you prefer to create your own question and answer, please email the answer to finance@williamslake.ca).

The City staff will accept your payment and e-mail you the receipt within several business days.
