Orchestrating Collections
GovWallet orchestrates collections through a simple, secure process designed for efficiency and scale:
Start checkout: The payor initiates the payment or checkout flow in the agency’s frontend.
Submit payment request: The frontend sends the payment request to GovWallet.
Orchestrates the payment: GovWallet processes the request and routes the payment through the appropriate payment rail.
Initiate settlement: If the payment is processed via PayNow, GovWallet initiates the payment to the bank (or payment service provider). If it is processed via credit card, GovWallet initiates the card payment through a payment service provider.
Complete fund settlement: PayNow or the Payment Service Provider settles the payment with the agency’s bank account.
Record the transaction: GovWallet records the transaction and makes the transaction data available in the GovWallet Admin Portal.
Download the transaction report: The transaction report can be downloaded from the Administrative Portal for reconciliation and reporting purposes.
