General Questions
What is Aazly?
Aazly is a billing and customer portal platform built specifically for water districts. It gives your district an admin portal to manage billing and a customer portal so ratepayers can pay bills, set autopay, and view usage online.
Who is Aazly for?
Aazly is designed for municipal water departments, irrigation districts, and special-purpose water utilities of all sizes. Whether you serve 20 or 20,000 ratepayers, the platform scales with you.
How do I get started?
Request a demo through our contact page. We'll walk you through the platform, set up your district, and help you configure your portal. Most districts are live within a few weeks.
Can we use our own domain?
Yes. Each district gets a dedicated subdomain (e.g., yourdistrict.aazly.com). Custom domains can also be arranged for branded URLs.
Billing Questions
How do billing cycles work?
You keep your existing billing cycles. We integrate with your billing data so invoices appear in the customer portal. Ratepayers see their current balance and history, and autopay runs on your schedule.
What payment methods are supported?
Customers can pay with credit cards, debit cards, ACH bank transfers, checks, and cash. Online payments are processed securely with full PCI compliance.
How does autopay work?
Customers can enable autopay from their portal. When a new invoice is generated, the saved payment method is charged automatically. You can configure timing and notification settings.
Can customers see their usage data?
Yes. The customer portal displays usage trends and billing history so ratepayers understand their bills. Data is synced from your billing system.
Security Questions
Is payment data secure?
Yes. All payment data is handled by our secure payment processor. Card numbers and bank account details never touch our servers. Funds go directly to your district's account.
Are you PCI compliant?
Yes. Our payment processing is PCI Level 1 certified, the highest level of compliance. Since we use hosted payment elements, your district benefits from this compliance without additional burden.
How is customer data protected?
We use encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. Access is role-based and audited. Your district's data is isolated from other districts in our multi-tenant architecture.
