Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias announced that all DMV locations in Illinois now accept digital payments, including Apple, Google, and Samsung Pay. This move aims to enhance customer convenience and modernize services.
Giannoulias emphasized the commitment to improving the DMV experience through technology.
With over half of Americans using contactless payments for everyday transactions, the adoption of this method has surged, particularly during the pandemic, due to its security features.
The use of near-field communication (NFC) technology ensures that transactions are encrypted, providing robust protection against fraud.
Giannoulias reassured residents that their payment and personal information remain secure during DMV visits.
Digital wallets can now be used at all 150 Illinois DMV locations, as well as in the Secretary of State’s Business Services and Index departments.
