Billing and Payments
Your Lakefront bill must be paid in full on or before the due date in order to avoid the assessment of late payment charges – late interest 1.5% monthly (19.56% annually). To make paying your bill quick and easy, we offer the following convenient payment options:
Credit Card
Lakefront now accepts Visa and MasterCard payments in the office.
Lakefront has partnered with Paymentus Corporation to bring you the convenience of using your MasterCard or Visa to pay your bill online or over the phone. Payments of up to $1,000 per transaction, online or over the phone, will be allowed with a service fee charged at a rate of 1.75%. To use this service please call 1-888-896-0976 or click here to pay online.
*There is no transaction fee charged when paying with Visa or MasterCard at the Lakefront Office.
Telephone or Internet Banking
This option is available through most banks and trust companies. It allows you to pay your bill through the Internet and on a touch tone phone.

Payments at Banks

Drop Box
The drop box located north of our office door on Division Street (cheques only please – do not insert cash).
Pre-Authorized Payment
The net amount of your bill will be withdrawn from your bank account on the due date printed on your bill. You will continue to receive your bills, as usual, showing the amount that will be withdrawn. A message will appear on your bill telling you that you are a Pre Authorized Payment, PAP, customer and not to pay the bill, as it will come out of your bank account automatically on the due date. We require a void cheque and a signature to set your account up for PAP.
Equal Monthly Payment Plan (Budget Billing)
Make budgeting easier by signing up for our Equal Monthly Payment Plan.
Your billing costs for the year are estimated based on your past usage and spread equally over the year, based on 12 equal monthly payments. The payments are automatically withdrawn from your account on the 6th, 20th, or 30th depending on your billing date. You will receive your bills, as usual, with a message indicating you are on a Budget Plan.
You may also choose to opt in a Pre-Authorized Payment Plan where your equal monthly payment amount will automatically be withdrawn from your bank account on the 6th, 20th, or 30th of each month. We suggest that you keep an eye on the status of your account to make sure the balance does not get too high through the year.
Your Equal Monthly Payment Plan amount is subject to a semi-annual review that may require an additional adjustment due to usage or rate changes. You will be notified, in advance, if an adjustment is required.
Your account will be reconciled yearly, and a new Equal Monthly Payment Plan will be calculated. Lakefront will inform you in advance of this new Equal Monthly Payment Plan amount.
