Replace long lines with online.

Let defendants pay fines, submit pleas, and check their case status anytime, anywhere, and from any device.

By making it easy to complete these tasks online, your team can spend less time on manual transactions and paperwork, and more time on other priorities.

Easier payments for them. Less work for you.

Other solutions have clunky payment options, often forcing defendants to make separate payments in multiple places. Or call in with questions. Or give up and head into court.

With PayIt, you give defendants one place where they can plead and pay for just about anything from paying a parking ticket to pleading guilty to a misdemeanor.

Plus, your defendants can:

Choose from a wide range of payment methods

Request payment plans & schedule AutoPay

Pay by cash at local retail chains with QR codes

Give defendants a secure profile so they can answer their own questions

“Did that payment go through?”

Without a receipt, defendants have to call in to confirm their pleas and payments.

With PayIt, you give defendants a secure profile with access to their case status, receipts, payment history, saved payment methods, documents, and more.

That way your defendants have all the information they need at their fingertips – no need to call or walk in.
