Overview

In this Tech for Public Good-themed STACK Meetup, the team behind GovWallet, GovTech’s latest digital tool, will share the technicalities of this improved way of distributing government payouts.

GovWallet removes the need for public agencies to develop multiple, similar disbursement systems and streamlines organisational processes for faster payouts. More importantly, it reduces the number of steps for users to receive government-issued monies and credits. GovWallet also enables users who do not own a bank account to withdraw cash at ATMs, and spend their credits on selected merchants via the LifeSG app.

The GovTech team will be taking you through the GovWallet development journey of improving the user experience for citizens, and lowering the entry barrier for more merchants to participate in this scheme. Hear behind-the-scenes stories on the challenges faced by the team when developing key features of GovWallet too!
