The City of Chester is the first municipality in West Virginia to partner with PayGOV. However, Chester joins a growing number of municipalities across the United States which have chosen PayGOV. PayGOV provides a comprehensive suite of electronic payment services at no cost to the agency.
The search for a vendor took longer than expected. Few were willing to accommodate the needs of the Town or were simply too expensive. Clerk/Treasurer Brenda Schneider found the right vendor after reaching out to surrounding Montana towns. The response was overwhelmingly in favor of one vendor, PayGOV.US. Mrs. Schneider explained, “PayGOV has positioned us to move forward technologically without absorbing the costs.”
In order to offer this service the Town has contracted with an Minority Owned Indiana based company known as a premier provider of electronic payments. PayGOV.US is a leader in merchant processing in the government sector. Chief Operating Officer Jonathan Stoops credits their success with their “ability to adapt quickly” to the changing environment. “We found PayGOV.US after searching for just the right company,” explained Clerk/Treasurer Linda Fisk, “ they came highly recommended by other cities and towns throughout Indiana.”
“We are pleased to continue to offer our electronic payment service to Sturgeon Bay at a reduced rate and to add electronic check acceptance. In this economy it is vital that every avenue is explored to increase revenue collection.” Remarked Jonathan Stoops, Chief Operations Officer for PayGOV.US. “Sturgeon Bay is a Utility on the forefront of innovation.”
Clerk-Treasurer Robyn Cook is to be commended for the expansion of service. "The addition of credit cards has been a long time coming, and I'm extremely happy to offer convenient payment options without placing that cost on the Town," explained Cook. "Residents have continually requested this and we are excited to begin!”
Safety Director Greg Berquest researched a dozen vendors before deciding upon a midwestern company. “PayGOV is known throughout the midwest as a great fit for government”, explained Mr. Berquest, “After a thorough search I am comfortable with our selection. We expect to work with them for years to come.” Special thanks to Julie Fish and Sherryl George who worked closely during the selection process and were able to negotiate a waiver of all costs to the City. This keeps the burden off taxpayers who do not use plastic. PayGOV.US is the preferred vendor for Ohio municipal government.
