Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

it
in
Section 10 of the Local Governmental Acceptance of Credit Cards Act.
(b) The Department may, but need not, accept payment by credit card for any
fee,
fine, or other charge that it is authorized by law to collect. The Department
may adopt rules and procedures governing the acceptance of payment by credit
card and may enter into such agreements as may be necessary to accept payment
by
credit card.
(c) The Department may, but need not, accept payment through a third-party
payment
agent of any fee, fine, or other charges to the Department. The Department may

third-party payment agents.
The Department may enter into agreements with one or more financial
institutions, internet companies, or other business entities to act as
third-party payment agents for the payment of fees, fines, or other charges to
the
Department. These agreements may authorize the third-party payment agent to
retain a service fee out of the payments collected.
(d) Receipt by the Department of the amount of a fee, fine, or other charge
paid
by credit card or through a third-party payment agent authorized by the
Department, less the amount of any service fee retained under the Department's
agreement with the credit card service provider or the third-party payment
agent, shall be deemed receipt of the full amount of the fee or other charge
and
shall discharge the payment obligation in full.
(e) In the event of a conflict between this Section and a provision of any
other
Act administered by the Department, this Section controls.
