Government Online Payments
Hundreds of local governments throughout North America use ActiveGovernment’s cashiering and payment management solution to offer citizens the capability of online government payments.
What are government online payments?
ActiveGovernment’s integrated cashiering and payment management solution, part of the Citizen Access Suite of solutions, enables governments to offer citizens the option to pay bills online with credit cards. Whether a citizen needs to pay for his or her property taxes, utilities, recreation program registration fees, parking tickets or any other government fees, our industry-leading solution integrates data across departments so that all payment transactions can be managed through one system.
With ActiveGovernment, cities and counties can better serve its citizens by offering convenient payment options and a one-stop-shop for all payment needs. Citizens no longer have to go from one building to the next paying each individual department; now citizens can pay for multiple payments in a single transaction with one receipt, whether in-person or by logging on to the government Web site from any Internet-enabled computer.
The online conveniences also transcend to staff members, alleviating heavy workloads, manual entry and long lines of citizens waiting to make a payment. With hundreds of cities and counties across the continent already taking advantage of government online payment options, isn’t it time your citizens had access to the most convenient and simple options?
