Mississippi is one of the first states to offer
auto-renewal options for licenses purchased through all methods of
sale.
NIC Inc. (Nasdaq: EGOV), one of the country’s leading hunt and
fish licensing providers, recently added auto renewal licenses to
its library of outdoor recreation digital services. Jackson-based
Mississippi Interactive, LLC, an NIC company, partnered with the
Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks to launch
an all new Hunting and Fishing Licensing System and Customer
Dashboard, allowing outdoor enthusiasts to opt-in to auto renew
their annual hunting and fishing licenses. The new system is the
first instance of a state offering automatic renewal for all
license holders, regardless of purchase method.
“Mississippi’s new automatic renewal option for hunting and
fishing licenses is a great example of how NIC employees and their
government partners are using technology to enhance the citizen
experience,” said Harry Herington, Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of the Board for NIC Inc. “The service is an innovative
addition to the cutting-edge outdoor recreation licensing services
NIC has been providing for nearly 20 years.”
Currently, one out of six hunting licenses is sold through an
NIC system. Along with outdoor recreation licensing and
auto-renewal options, NIC has developed solutions for campground
reservations, game tagging, electronic park permits, and numerous
websites and applications for outdoor enthusiasts.
Earlier this year, the Pennsylvania Game Commission and the
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission signed a 10-year agreement
with the Company to provide a new licensing technology platform.
With the addition of Pennsylvania, the Company will process nearly
15 million outdoor recreation transactions annually and become the
largest provider of hunting licenses in the United States.
According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Pennsylvania ranks
second in the nation with 2.6 million hunting licenses, tags,
permits, and stamps sold in 2018.
“Pennsylvania, and all of our government partners will benefit
from our expertise in this area throughout the country,” said Harry
Herington. “All of us at NIC are excited for the future of outdoor
recreation digital services, and the best-in-class innovative
solutions that will continue to create convenience and
efficiencies, and make it easier for citizens to enjoy the
outdoors.”
