Payment Models

Revenue Neutral

A revenue neutral solution offers the ability to direct 100% of the face value of fees and financial obligations to the county. A Convenience or Service Fee is charged to the cardholder. Those fees as well as all processing costs will then be directed to NXGEN.

Revenue Positive

This option offers the ability to obtain the full amount of the fees and financial obligations, as well as the Convenience or Service Fee that is charged to the cardholder. With this model the county is responsible for the processing costs.

Traditional Merchant Account

Departments may not be able to surcharge their residents for services. In this case they will be setup with Cost Plus rates and fees. The Cost Plus pricing plan will minimize expenses associated with processing credit cards and checks.

The Point of Citation program effectively streamlines the bond posting process. It runs on an Internet web application providing a Card Present, Over-the-Counter solution for:

  • Bond Rooms
  • Squad Cars
  • Circuit Court Clerks
  • Internet

The POC Program is customizable to handle multiple traffic citation fines and warrant/ bond posting combinations in a single transaction. The system is also customizable to address Cross County recognition by itemizing Home and Secondary County. NXGEN's POC Program has the unique ability to integrate with accounting and ticketing software.

Processing Transactions

The architecture of the program is open ended, allowing each county to collect data specific to their needs. Fields can be setup to auto-populate, chosen from a drop down menu and/or be required.

How It Works

  1. Tax clerk enters the property tax amount to be paid and the program calculates the associated “Service Fee” and prints two receipts.
  2. Cardholder signs two receipts, one for Property Tax and the other for the Service Fee.
  3. Property Tax funds are instantly sent to the County/Municipality’s bank account and the Service Fee funds are sent to the Processor to cover processing costs.

Now taxpayers can pay property taxes using their credit card.
