Paying business rates
Pay business rates online
You can pay your business rates online through the Land & Property Services (LPS) site. This service allows you to pay your rate bill by debit card.
When making a rates payment, you will need your LPS Account ID and Ratepayer ID - this is found at the top of your rate bill. You will also need to know the amount you need to pay.
While LPS and their payment provider do not impose a payment limit on the online payment site, some card providers do impose a single transaction limit (commonly around £2,000). If you experience a problem trying to process a large transaction this may be the cause. To avoid this you could try to process the payment in two smaller transactions.
Debit cards accepted for rates payment
The following debit cards are accepted when paying business rates online:
- Switch
- Visa Electron
- Solo
- Maestro
Please note that LPS is currently unable to accept credit card payments on business rate accounts.
