title
Request for approval of a renewal option with AllPaid, Inc., dba GovPayNet for online bail bond payment services for the Sheriff’s Office for the period of November 13, 2026 - November 12, 2027, at no cost to the county (210101).

Background and Discussion:
The Harris County Sheriff's Office request for approval of a renewal option with AllPaid, Inc., dba GovPayNet for online bail bond payment services for the Sheriff’s Office for the period of November 13, 2026 - November 12, 2027 at no additional cost to the county (210101).
Expected Impact:
The Harris County Sheriff's Office receives approximately 3,000 cash bond payments from the community annually; to process this payment, the person must come to the Joint Processing Center in person to pay the bond. AllPaid provides a streamlined process of collecting the cash payment electronically from the community, eliminating the traveling downtown to make the payment and reducing the amount of foot traffic in our Harris County Sheriff's Office Facility. We are early after implementation, but this has been a step towards online-based solutions.
