How Do I Pay My Animal Registration?

Additional Information

Before you start: This feature may not be available from your council. Check its website for animal registration information. You can pay with an autopay plan or a one-off payment, and both are covered below. Only credit or debit cards are accepted for animal registration renewals. Bank account payments aren't supported for this notice type. An autopay plan renews automatically each registration year until you cancel it.

 

Renew your animal's registration online in a few minutes. Set up autopay so it's taken care of every year, or pay the full amount now.

Phase 1 — Sign In and Review Your Details
Step 1: Start the payment process

 

Go to your council's animal registration payment link, or scan the QR code on your registration or reminder notice.

Step 2: Sign in

 

Sign in with your mobile number or email address (if supported).

Step 3: Verify your identity

 

Enter your mobile number or email address, then enter the 6-digit verification code we send you.

Note: If you came from your council's website rather than scanning a QR code, you'll need your animal reference number to search for your registration.
Step 4: Review your details

 

The account confirmation screen shows your animal's registration details. Check they're correct. If anything is wrong, click Update pet details before you continue.

Phase 2 — Choose How to Pay

Once you've reviewed your details in Phase 1, choose one of the options below. You only need to complete one.

Option A — Set Up Automatic Payment (Recommended)

Note: Once set up, your autopay plan continues automatically each registration year unless you cancel it. The amount may change from year to year in line with registration fees. You can cancel or update your plan at any time before a payment is processed.
Step 1: Choose automatic payment

 

On the payment options screen, select Set-up automatic payment, then click Continue.

Step 2: Review the autopay terms

 

Read the autopay terms, which explain what to expect from the plan. When you're happy, click Continue.

Step 4: Choose a payment card

 

Select a card you've used with Payble before, or click Add card to add a new one.

  • If you're adding a new card, fill in the form that opens.
  • You'll need to agree to the Payble terms and conditions, privacy policy and any surcharge your council applies.
  • You can't add a new card unless you agree to all the terms shown.
Step 5: Schedule the payments

 

Select your card, then click Schedule payments.

Option B — Make a One-Off Payment

Note: A one-off payment is taken immediately, not on the due date. If you'd rather pay on the due date, set up an autopay plan instead (Option A). You don't need to do this if you've already set up autopay.
Step 1: Choose one-off payment

 

On the payment options screen, select Make one-off payment, then click Continue.

Step 2: Review the amount owing

 

Check the total amount owing on the payment confirmation screen, then click Continue.
