Online Payments

Please read the following before using the online payment system to pay a Municipal Court citation fee. Not all violations can be paid online.

Effective Oct. 18, 2021, Hutto customers who choose the convenience of paying by credit or debit card will take on part of the City's expense. You can avoid the card company's 2% fee by submitting a money order or cashier’s check to the City.
