Background and Discussion:
The Harris County Sheriff's Office was seeking a solution to accept credit card and debit card payments for cash bonds payments that will be available 24/7/365 via phone, online from anywhere, including notification of successful payment in real-time to HCSO and the consumer provided by AllPaid, Inc., dba GovPayNet.
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.
