TERMS OF PAYMENT
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF PAYMENT CAREFULLY. IT CONTAINS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS, AS WELL AS LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS THAT MAY APPLY TO YOU.
Conditions of Payment
These Terms of Payment set forth the terms of the Internet/online payment service ("e-Pay Service") offered to you by the County of Los Angeles
("LACO", "County", "we", "us" or "our") with respect to your payment via County's website ("Site"). We will NOT accept payments through this Site
from any party/individual who is not an authorized user of the credit/debit card utilized for the payment to us or is making a payment from a foreign country.

Credit/Debit Card Payments
A credit/debit card payment, limited to credit cards with the American Express, Discover, MasterCard, and VISA card logos and debit cards with the Star,
Pulse and NYCE services, are the types of payment that will be accepted through this Site.
If the service fee is returned or charged back for any reason, the third party payment processor will return the payment to your credit/debit card account and your payment to County, in its entirety, will be canceled. The service fee and your payment, in its entirety, will appear on your credit/debit card bill as separate items. The service fee will be labeled "Link2Gov Service Fee", and your payment will be labeled "L2G*LACOEPAY-Department of Public Health". L2G is the credit/debit card payment processor Link2Gov, and LACOEPAY is County of Los Angeles Electronic Payment.
