Payment Methods

You may pay your water and sewage charges or water deposits by the following ways:

1. Autopay

   Autopay is a convenient and easy way to pay water and sewage charges, but this method is not applicable to payment of initial water deposit. Water and sewage charges will only be debited against your bank account on the payment due date. You may also set a limit for each payment. To arrange for autopay service, please download an authorization form WWO 1054 and return the completed form to your bank for processing. The form is available at any of our Customer Enquiry Centres and District Offices. You may also get a copy by calling our WSD Enquiry Hotline. Alternatively, you may approach your bank for the autopay arrangement.

   Since the processing of autopay application will take some time, please continue to pay your water and sewage charges by other payment methods until an autotpay date and amount are shown on the top right hand corner of the water bill. Upon closing of your water account, it is necessary for you to inform this department to cancel the autopay authorization. You may download the form Cancellation of Direct Debit Authorization for Payment of Charges issued by the Water Authority and return the completed form to WSD. To safe guard your own interest, you must cancel the autopay arrangement with your bank.

2. Automatic Teller Machine

   You may pay water and sewage charges or water deposits by using an Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) with either a logo of 'JETPAYMENT' or 'BILL PAYMENT SERVICE'. Payment made before midnight on the due date will be regarded as on time. Please keep the receipt as proof of payment, if required. ATM cardholders may contact their banks for more details.

3. PPS (by phone, Internet or mobile application “PPS on Mobile”)

   You may pay water and sewage charges or water deposits by using PPS. To begin, simply bring your ATM card or credit card with ATM function to any nearby PPS registration terminals to open a PPS account. After registering your water account and deposit account via phone (call 18011) or Internet (ppshk.com), you can pay your bill through phone (call 18031) or Internet (ppshk.com).
