Our East Ayrshire customer portal gives you access to a wide range of council services online including payments, uplift requests, copy certificates and many more.
If you create a customer account you can:
- manage your council tax and rent accounts
- store your contact details

Our short video shows just how easy it is to register so why not create a customer account using your chosen device, any day of the week, any time you want.
Important announcement about cash payments
Our Customer Service Centres can no longer take cash as we have moved to more efficient payment methods including direct debit, online transactions and card payments. Our Customer Service Advisors will be available to provide support and advice on alternative methods of payment.
For those customers who prefer to continue making payments by cash, this option is available at PayPoint locations.
