Paying Cochise County Traffic Tickets
Cochise County courts accept online payments through nCourt and other portals. The Cochise County payment page has links to pay for each precinct. Not all charges are eligible for online payment. If your ticket does not appear in the system, contact the court directly.
Credit and debit card payments include a fee of 2.5% or $2.00 minimum through Point and Pay. This convenience fee goes to the payment processor, not the court. Cash payments are available in person at any court location.
Payment plans are offered with no interest. Many people cannot pay their full fine at once, and the courts understand this. The one-time fee for setting up a payment plan is $40. Contact your court to request a plan and set up monthly payments.
Note: Default fees of $100 apply if you fail to appear or pay by your court date. Returned checks cost $25. Pay on time to avoid extra charges.
