About
Pay.gov’s services rest on the following cornerstones:
Collections
Enabling end-users to authorize electronic transaction funds transfers over the Internet that will be settled through a number of methods (Automated Clearing House (ACH), credit card, or debit card).
Forms acceptance and direct billing
Accepting agency forms submitted by end-users over the Internet and presenting agency bills to end-users over the Internet.
Reporting
Maintaining, processing, and providing online financial information and database documents for Treasury, agencies, and the public about transactions.
Pay.gov Services
The services of Pay.gov are modular; in other words, each of the services can be invoked separately of the others, sometimes from an agency’s own website.
Pay.gov provides:
- New electronic methods to make it easier for agencies to conduct transactions online.
- Help for agencies to convert forms into documents that can be accepted electronically and provide means by which agency bills may be presented electronically.
- Reports to agencies about these automated transactions. Pay.gov assists agencies in integrating the reports into their systems.
