Matamata-Piako Turns Rates Stress into 4.9/5 Resident Satisfaction

Partnering with Payble allowed MPDC to transform the experience. Residents were able to check balances instantly via mobile and avoid penalties through flexible weekly, fortnightly or monthly payment plans that aligned with their pay cycles. By allowing residents to know exactly what is due when, at any time, we were able to achieve:

What you will get

Direct debit forms dropped to near zero

Direct debits were automatically created in the system, saving staff time.

Call centres no longer fielded endless balance checks

Automation freed staff time and reduced administrative burden

Rates teams shifted from firefighting to proactive support

Freeing staff from repetitive tasks allows them to focus on meaningful community support.
