Account Number
Your Account Number is a unique number that identifies your account. Your account number is on the receipt provided with your I-PASS purchase. Or, if you purchased your I-PASS at Jewel or Road Ranger, it will be found on the transponder activation label.
When you are trying to associate your user to an existing I-PASS account, and you do not know your I-PASS account number you can use the transponder number located on your I-PASS transponder above the barcode. This number begins with 015 and is eleven digits long. Include leading zeroes, but NOT any dashes, letters, spaces, or other special characters.
Transponder Number
Your transponder is the actual I-PASS device that you position in the window of your vehicle. Your transponder number is located on your I-PASS transponder above the barcode. The number begins with 015. Enter the entire 11 digits of your transponder ID. Be sure to include any leading zeroes. Do not include any dashes, letters, spaces or other special characters. For example—your transponder number should be entered as 01500000000.
Driver's License Number
The Driver's License Number registered on your I-PASS account. Commercial Accounts should use their FEIN (Federal Employer Identification Number) in place of driver's license number. Please leave out any spaces or special characters that may be in your license number entering only letters and numbers. Note: All Illinois driver's licenses begin with the first letter of your last name. For example—your driver's license should be entered as A00000000000.
If your driver's license is not recognized, you must visit an Illinois Tollway customer service center so that your driver's license number can be verified and updated on your account. For security purposes this cannot be done over the phone. Verification and updates will need to be completed before you will be able to create an online username.
FEIN
The FEIN (Federal Employer Identification Number) registered with the account. If you are receive an error message that states that your FEIN is not recognized, for security purposes, you must mail a letter on company letterhead requesting updates that need to be made to your account. Verification and updates authorized by your letter must be completed before you will be able to create an online username.

What is the Card Security Code?
The card security code is a unique three or four digit number, separate from your credit card number. It is an authentication procedure established by credit card companies to further efforts towards reducing fraud for internet transactions. This feature is a three- or four-digit code which provides a cryptographic check of the information embossed on the card. Therefore, the code is not part of the card number itself and is presented unembossed (flat) on the card. These three or four numbers help ensure that the physical card is in the cardholder's possession while shopping online or by phone, assisting to prevent unauthorized or fraudulent use.
Your security code can be found in the following locations on the following cards:
Visa/MasterCard/Discover
Your card security code for your MasterCard, Visa or Discover card is a three-digit number on the back of your credit card, immediately following your main card number.
American Express
The card security code for your American Express card is a four-digit number located on the front of your credit card, to the right or left above your main credit card number.
