DuPage County Treasurer launches easy online property tax payment system

In a recent meeting held on May 16, 2025, DuPage County officials emphasized the convenience and security of paying property taxes online through the county's Treasurer's website. This initiative aims to streamline the payment process for residents, making it easier for them to manage their tax obligations.

The online payment system is designed to be user-friendly. Residents can access the service by visiting dupagecounty.gov/treasurer. From there, they can look up their property tax information either by parcel number or by address. Once the tax summary is displayed, users can select options to pay their current taxes online.

The meeting highlighted two primary payment methods available to residents. The first option allows users to pay without incurring any fees by using a checking or savings account. This method requires users to enter their bank details, including routing and account numbers, which can be found on their checks. The second option permits payment via credit card, although it incurs a 2.1% convenience fee. Officials clarified that the county does not collect these fees, and residents are advised against using debit cards for online payments.

Once the payment information is submitted, users will receive an email receipt for their records, ensuring they have proof of payment. This online system not only saves time but also enhances the security of transactions, aligning with the county's commitment to improving services for its residents.

As DuPage County continues to adapt to the needs of its community, the introduction of this online payment option reflects a broader trend towards digital solutions in local government services. Residents are encouraged to take advantage of this efficient method to fulfill their tax responsibilities. For further assistance, the county has provided a contact number for inquiries related to the online payment process.
