Payment processing amounts 2025.xlsx

This is a payment processing volume spreadsheet for the City of Ashland, Oregon, supporting a Request for Proposals for comprehensive utility billing software. The document details the city's transaction volumes and payment processing requirements across multiple channels. Credit card transactions averaged approximately 6,600 transactions monthly throughout 2025, with monthly volumes ranging from 5,782 to 7,338 transactions and dollar amounts between $1.3 million and $1.9 million, totaling approximately $18.6 million annually. The city also processes annual ACH volumes of 14,165 transactions valued at $2.88 million, along with in-person cash payments of 123 transactions ($23,655) and kiosk payments of 570 transactions ($92,998), bringing total cash payment volume to $116,653 annually.

The spreadsheet demonstrates the city's significant payment processing infrastructure requirements across multiple payment channels, with credit card transactions representing the largest transaction volume and dollar value. These metrics are directly relevant to the utility billing software procurement, as the selected vendor must support integrated payment processing capabilities for the city's 13,000 customers across five utility services (Water, Wastewater, Stormwater, Electric, and Telecommunications). The data indicates the system must accommodate high transaction throughput with PCI-DSS compliance to handle credit card processing securely, web portal payment functionality, and integration with existing payment processing systems. No specific budget allocation for payment processing fees or system costs is outlined in this spreadsheet.
