Indiana Department Of Environmental Management Now Accepting Credit Card Payments

IN.gov and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) launched an over-the-counter payment solution to provide an additional payment option to users. Citizens are now able to pay IDEM with a credit or debit card.

The new over-the-counter payment solution allows customers to remit payment via credit or debit cards from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. either by visiting the Indianapolis, Indiana, office located at 100 N. Senate Avenue, IGCN 1324 or by phone [phone]. Customers may continue to pay via electronic fund transfers (EFTS/ACH), by check via mail, or may visit the office and pay by check or cash between the hours of 8:15 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.

“It is great to offer an alternative payment method to our constituents,” said IDEM Commissioner Thomas Easterly . “Being able to offer IN.gov’s services to accept payments is convenient and improves IDEM’s customer service at no cost to taxpayers.”
