Making Payments

Online Payments

The University of Illinois System accepts both e-checks and credit card payments online through the Online payment Center.

To pay by e-check, the following information will need to be included:

  • U.S. bank account number (NOT the number on your debit card)

Financial Institutions can provide the payee’s bank routing and/or account number, if unknown.

Credit cards are accepted if the customers department has opted into the credit card program.
