BOSTON and LOOMIS, Calif.—February 8, 2024: TruePoint Solutions, leading provider of CIS/billing solutions for utilities, agriculture, and professional services for public agencies today announced that the City of Evanston, IL has enhanced payment options for its customers through the addition of InvoiceCloud, an EngageSmart solution for online bill payment services. InvoiceCloud integrates directly with Evanston’s existing TrueBill utility billing solution.

“We’re committed to providing the best possible service and experience for our customers,” states Vicki Biner, Customer and Meter Services Coordinator at the City of Evanston. “A big factor in that is how we use TrueBill to manage our utility billing – it touches every aspect of our customers’ experience, so it was important to us to adopt a payment component that would integrate tightly with TrueBill and WaterSmart, our customer portal.”
