Illinois Interactive, an NIC company, has been selected to
partner with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) to
provide an enhanced licensing system that will deliver modern
technology for hunting and fishing licenses, campground
reservations, and watercraft and boat registration and renewal.
The new solution will focus on a user-friendly experience for
outdoor enthusiasts who hunt and fish in Illinois or frequent the
state’s waterways and IDNR-managed sites. It will feature lifetime
user accounts for each client that can be used for all IDNR
services - hunting, fishing, campground reservations and
recreational vehicle registration. The solution utilizes responsive
design principles so patrons can use it on all devices.
“We look forward to expanding our outdoor recreations services
to assist Illinois’ active outdoor community,” said Sandi Miller,
NIC’s Vice President of Outdoor Recreation. “It’s part of our
mission to make state services more accessible through digital
government services, and this will certainly make enjoying the
great outdoors easier in Illinois.”
Patrons can expect the new solution to launch during the first
quarter of 2021.
Currently, one out of six hunting licenses in the nation is sold
through an NIC system. NIC is a leading provider of outdoor
recreation transactions, and with the addition of Illinois, NIC
will process nearly 18 million outdoor recreation transactions
annually. NIC also provides outdoor recreation and payment
solutions in 13 states, including Mississippi, Wisconsin, New
Jersey and Alabama.
