HOW DOES THE ELECTRONIC PAYMENT IN FULL OPTION WORK?
A taxpayer, who wants to pay their 2009 property tax bill in full, may do so electronically by visiting the City Treasurer’s Home Page at http://www.milwaukee.gov/treasurer. Just follow the step-by-step instructions to authorize the City Treasurer to debit your checking or savings account for the full payment amount due without a convenience fee being assessed, or you may charge the full amount due to either your VISA™ or MasterCard™ credit card with a convenience fee of 2.5% being assessed on your credit card payment transaction or you may use a debit card with a convenience fee of $3.95 being assessed. Remember that the transfer of funds to the City Treasurer will not occur if there are insufficent funds in a taxpayer’s checking or savings account, or you exceed your credit card limit. A tax receipt will be mailed to you within five working days of payment settlement. Please note that transactions authorized prior to 5 P.M. will be settled the next regular, banking business day.
