Before submitting a new filing to the court, you must configure at least one payment account. Depending on the state, county, and court, you can add a Credit Card, eCheck, and/or Waiver account.

You can have cards on file for specific clients, or have one firm card to use for all your filings firm wide.

If you need to update a current card, you need to create a payment account for the new card as well. You can not simply change the account number or expiration date of an existing payment account.

Note: When you submit a filing, the court does a pre-authorization on your card for the filing fees. If the filing is rejected, the court will not settle that pre-authorization. It will eventually fall off your card. However, the time it takes to fall off can range from one (1) day to a few days depending on your banking institution. When you “re-submit” your rejected filing, the court does another pre-authorization. Because of this, you may not want to use a debit card as a payment method.
