How to Pay Probation Fines and Restitution in Stanislaus County
Trying to pay probation fines or restitution in Stanislaus County? Start by checking whether the county's online payment system is working. If it's down, there's a phone option so you can still get your payment in on time.
Right now, Stanislaus County's payment page shows that online payments are temporarily unavailable. If you can't get through, it's a system outage, not something on your end. Don't wait it out. Switch to the phone payment option, especially if your deadline is coming up.
Phone payment option: If online payments are unavailable, call 209-525-6700 to make a payment by phone.
Stanislaus County's probation payment portal lets you search specifically for "Probation Fines/Restitutions." Select that bill type, then follow the prompts to pull up the fines or restitution tied to the account you're paying.
Minimum payment: The probation payment portal requires a minimum payment of $20.00.
Paying through the county's online vendor (CSA Stanislaus)? Have a Visa or Mastercard ready. Those are the only card types the vendor accepts for online payments.

If you tried to pay online while services were down, keep proof. Screenshot the "temporarily unavailable" message, note the date and time of your attempt, and save any confirmation details from the probation fines/restitution portal. If anyone questions whether you tried to pay on time, a clear record makes it much easier to explain the delay.
Follow up if timing is tight: If a technical issue delayed your payment, contact your probation officer to document what happened and the steps you took to get the payment made.
