Paying Glendale Traffic Tickets

Glendale City Court accepts online payments through nCourt. You can pay with credit or debit cards. A 5% processing fee applies to all credit card payments as of October 2025. You need your citation or case number to find your balance.

In-person payments are accepted at the court during business hours. You can pay with cash, check, or credit card at the counter. Mail payments by check or money order to the court address with your citation number.

Paying your ticket means you admit responsibility. Points go on your driving record. Contact the court before paying if you want to fight the ticket or attend defensive driving school.

Defensive Driving School in Glendale

Arizona law allows most drivers to take a defensive driving class to dismiss traffic tickets. You must request this option before paying or appearing for your court date. Contact Glendale City Court to get approval. The court will tell you the deadline for completing the class and submitting your certificate.

You cannot use traffic school if you completed one for another ticket in the past 12 months. CDL holders cannot use this option for violations while driving commercial vehicles. The class takes about four hours and is available online or in person. Completing the course keeps points off your driving record and prevents insurance rate increases.

If you got a ticket near the stadium, check whether it was issued by Glendale Police or another agency. Only Glendale Police tickets go to Glendale City Court.
