From the City with notations about service fees for credit card payments
New in 2026, the City and County of Denver is moving property tax statements online to denvergov.org/property. Property owners will receive a postcard in the mail with instructions on how to view and pay their property taxes online.
Key Messages:
Online property tax statements are a more sustainable solution that benefits residents:
• Taxpayers can now see multiple years of property tax statements
• Taxpayers can easily pay taxes on the same webpage
• Taxpayers will have a digital copy of their tax statement, which can be downloaded, saved, and emailed
• Taxpayers no longer need to contact the city to request copies of lost statements
• Denver saves 500,000 pieces of paper and $100,000 in mailing costs each year
To view your statement and pay your taxes online:
• Visit denvergov.org/property, click ‘Real Property’ and enter your property address.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page and find ‘Tax Documents.’
• Download your statement by selecting the applicable tax year.
• To pay, scroll to the top of the page and select ‘Tax Payment.’
• Repeat this process for all properties you own.
How to Pay
- If your payments are made by a mortgage holding company (escrow payments), no change will occur.

Regarding Service Fees for Credit Card Payments
Taxes can be paid online, by check or money order in the mail, or in person. There are no service fees when paying by check, money order, cash, or electronic check (ACH payment online). Most jurisdictions in the state charge service fees for credit/debit card payments, because the cost of accepting cards has become quite high. For reference, in 2024, the city absorbed over $17 million in credit card processing fees. Denver started charging the 2.5% service fee last year, and it applies to most city payments. The city does not make any revenue on this fee. All of it goes to cover the processing costs charged by credit and debit card companies.
