BILLING

PACER users are billed quarterly. Users may either receive a notice that their
invoice or statement is available online by email or, if requested, by U.S.
mail. Login to:

 * Review detailed billing transactions (e.g., track monthly usage)
 * Check your current balance
 * Update credit card information
 * Make online credit card payments
 * View invoices, statements, or transaction details for the past 24 months.

If you accrue PACER charges within a quarter, you will receive either:

 * an Invoice if you have a balance due at the end of the quarter, or
 * a Statement of Account if you have a credit or zero balance at the end of the
   quarter.

PAY MONTHLY BY TRACKING USAGE

You may also pay on a monthly basis by tracking your usage. The previous month’s
transactions are available after the 10th of the current month.

Upon logging in, select the “Usage” tab and click “View Detailed Transactions.”

If you plan to pay monthly:

 * The payment will be posted to your account as a credit until you are billed
   at the end of the quarter.
 * To ensure your payment is applied correctly, you must include your PACER
   account number, dollar amount being paid (if paying multiple accounts), and
   month you are paying on the check or money order.
 * Acceptable forms of payment are check, money order, and credit card payment
   (online or by phone). To make an online payment, select "Make One-Time PACER
   Fee Payment" under the "Payments" tab, when logged into "Manage My Account."
 * If your monthly usage is less than $30, we recommend that you wait for your
   quarterly invoice before remitting payment. PACER user fees that do not
   exceed $30 in a quarterly billing cycle are waived in accordance with the
   Electronic Public Access Fee Schedule.


PAYMENT ADDRESS

PACER Service Center. You must include your PACER account number on the check or
money order and mail payment to:
