Do Not Pay Connect provides federal agencies and their program partners with streamlined access to payment integrity data. This technical resource center will guide you through the complete integration process, from initial planning to production deployment.
Getting Started
Step 1: Get Acquainted →
Before starting your technical implementation, it's essential to understand your agency's current infrastructure and integration requirements. This planning phase will help you choose the right integration approach and avoid common pitfalls.
Step 2: Establish Connections →
Once you've completed your planning phase, you're ready to establish technical connectivity. The connection process varies based on your chosen access method (or the access method chosen by your vendor).
Step 3: Quality Assurance (QA) Testing →
The QA testing environment provides a safe space to validate your integration using synthetic data that mirrors production data structures without containing real personally identifiable information (PII). Thorough QA testing is essential for identifying integration issues before production deployment.

Successful Do Not Pay Connect integration extends beyond technical connectivity to thoughtful workflow design. This phase focuses on embedding payment integrity checks seamlessly into your business processes.
Step 5: Technical Integration →
This phase focuses on the detailed technical work of integrating Do Not Pay Connect into your application architecture and business logic.
Step 6: Production Deployment →
Production deployment is the end point of your integration effort. This phase requires careful coordination between development, security, operations, and program teams.
