What are the requirements to enroll in the online bill pay program (Click2Gov)?

You must have a PC with an internet connection and an email account, because you will receive a verification email from the City of Elgin that contains the password for your account, which can be retained for your records. Although we do not recommend any specific browser, for security reasons we have tested C2G on the Microsoft Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers.
Have a copy of your bill handy, as you will need your account information during the initial enrollment process. Your account must be in “active” status to enroll.
