SACRAMENTO, Calif., March 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The California Rural Water Association (CRWA), has announced a new strategic partnership with GovCard, a division of Approval Payment Solutions.


GovCard specializes in providing electronic payment options that allow citizens to pay bills from the comfort and security of their homes. Citizens can pay with a credit card, debit card, or via ACH. Payments can be made through their user-friendly customer interface or by calling your local office for manual input.
