Liberty Utilities' online payment portal lets you pay your bill from your computer or phone without calling or mailing a check

Liberty Energy and Water operates the payment portal at www.libertyenergyandwater.com. You can log in with your account number and set up a one-time payment or enroll in automatic payments. The site accepts bank transfers and credit or debit cards, though card payments may carry a small processing fee.

You do not need to create a new account if you already receive bills from Liberty. Your account number appears on your bill statement — it is the identifier the company uses to match your payment to your service address.

Payments made online typically post to your account within one to two business days. If your bill is due soon, confirm the posting timeline before relying on an online payment to avoid a late charge.

Key Takeaways

  • Visit www.libertyenergyandwater.com and log in with your account number to access the payment portal.
  • You can pay once or set up automatic monthly payments using a bank account or card.
  • Card payments may include a processing fee, while bank transfers typically do not.
  • Online payments usually post within one to two business days, so plan ahead if your due date is within a few days.
  • Your account number is on your bill statement and is required to log in.

Logging in with your account number

Your account number is printed on the front of your bill, usually near the top or in a box labeled "Account Number" or "Service Account." It is a unique identifier that ties your payment to your specific address and meter.

Go to www.libertyenergyandwater.com and look for a link that says "Pay My Bill," "Login," or "Customer Portal." Enter your account number and the password you created when you first set up online access. If you have not created a password yet, the site will prompt you to do so using your email address and the last four digits of your phone number or other verification information.

If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page. Liberty will send a reset link to the email address on file. Check your spam folder if you do not see the email within a few minutes.

Choosing between one-time and automatic payments

A one-time payment is best if you want to pay your current bill without committing to future automatic payments. You enter the amount, choose your payment method, and confirm. The payment processes immediately and posts within one to two business days.

An automatic payment (sometimes called autopay or recurring payment) deducts your bill amount from your bank account or card on a date you choose each month. This works well if your bill amount stays roughly the same and you want to avoid late payments. You can change or cancel automatic payments anytime through your online account.

Automatic payments from a bank account usually have no fee. Payments by credit or debit card may include a processing fee — Liberty's site will show the fee amount before you confirm. If the fee is a concern, use a bank transfer instead.

Payment methods and fees

Liberty accepts payments by bank transfer (also called ACH or electronic check) and by credit or debit card. Bank transfers pull money directly from your checking or savings account and typically have no fee. Card payments are convenient but may carry a fee of 2 to 3 percent of your bill amount — the exact fee appears on the payment screen before you submit.

If you pay by mail, send your check or money order to the address on your bill. Mail payments take longer to post than online payments and should be sent at least one week before your due date to avoid a late charge.

Do not send cash by mail. If you cannot pay online or by check, call Liberty's customer service number on your bill to ask about other options.

What to do if your payment does not post

Online payments usually appear in your account within one to two business days. If more than two business days have passed and your payment does not show, log back into your account and check the payment history or transaction status. The site will show whether the payment is pending, posted, or failed.

If the payment failed, the site will explain why — often because the card expired, the account number was incorrect, or there were insufficient funds. You can try again immediately with corrected information.

If the payment shows as pending after two business days, or if you see no record of it at all, contact Liberty's customer service using the number on your bill. Have your account number and the date and amount of the payment ready. They can look up the transaction and confirm whether it is still processing or was rejected.

Avoiding late payments and service interruption

Your bill has a due date printed on the front. If you do not pay by that date, Liberty may charge a late fee. If you remain unpaid for 30 to 60 days (the exact timeline varies by location), the company may disconnect your service.

If you are having trouble paying your bill, contact Liberty before the due date. Many utilities offer payment plans that let you spread the amount over several months, or hardship programs for customers facing financial difficulty. These programs are not automatic — you have to ask for them.

Setting up automatic payments is the simplest way to avoid missing a due date. You can still adjust the amount or cancel the arrangement if your circumstances change.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pay my bill by phone instead of online?

Yes. Call the customer service number on your bill to pay by phone. You will need your account number and payment method (bank account or card) ready. Phone payments may also carry a processing fee if you use a card.

What if I pay online but my bill shows as unpaid the next day?

Online payments take one to two business days to post. If it has been less than two business days, the payment is likely still processing. Log into your account to check the status. If more than two business days have passed, contact Liberty's customer service.

Can I change or cancel automatic payments?

Yes. Log into your account on www.libertyenergyandwater.com and look for a section labeled "Autopay," "Recurring Payments," or "Payment Arrangements." You can pause, change the amount, or cancel anytime. Changes usually take effect within one billing cycle.

Is there a fee to pay my bill online?

Bank transfers have no fee. Credit and debit card payments may include a processing fee of 2 to 3 percent — the exact amount appears on the payment screen before you confirm. If you want to avoid the fee, use a bank transfer instead.

What should I do if I cannot afford my bill?

Contact Liberty before your due date to ask about payment plans or hardship programs. These let you spread payments over time or may reduce your bill temporarily. The company's customer service number is on your bill.
