"The new system is tremendous. It's quicker, less reconciliation effort, and the reporting has greatly improved & the staff spends less time this year. The new systems offer an easier process for the public with less chance of error. Great job and keep up the excellent advancement and service."

Robert Skidmore

E-Pay is designed for local governments and state agencies to offer users of their services easier, faster payment choices.

E-Pay participants can now accept credit cards, bankcards and/or electronic check payments over the counter, online and by phone using a speech recognition system.

In addition, E-Pay also offers electronic funds transfer (checking) on two services: Internet and Over the Counter (OTC). The OTC system images the check and stores that image for seven years. What's more, E-Pay now offers check truncation that converts paper checks to an electronic equivalent for lightning fast execution through the Federal Reserve. The OTC system processes single or recurring transactions charging your receivables to your user bankcards, checking or savings accounts. Here's a novel service - ask about Direct Recovery of bounced checks - it's a zero-cost add-on that you will love.

Each of these state-of-the-art services deposits your revenue directly to your Illinois Funds Money Market Fund account.

To date, more than 450 local governments and state agencies enjoy the faster, easier payment options offered by E-Pay.
