Internet or phone banking
You can use internet or phone banking to pay your rates. You must:
- identify "Wellington City Council" as the creditor
- include your rates account number as reference.
If Wellington City Council is already set up as a bill payee with your bank, you won't need to enter our bank account number – just quote “Wellington City Council”.
When prompted to add a reference for your payment, please type “RT” followed by your seven-digit rates account number (this number can be located on your rates assessment notice, rates invoice or from the rates property search).
If you sell your property and purchase another, you will need to change the reference used to that of your new rates account number.
