Over the past few years, we have seen promising advancements across technology and policy that, brought together, have the potential to meet the need for G2P payments to adopt a whole of government approach keeping recipients at the centre Open source communities worldwide are developing appropriate software that constitute core pieces of the G2P payments infrastructure.

NOTE: In the context of this project, the G2P solution refers to the set of digital platforms working together to enable Governments to send money via mobile money or bank accounts or as non-transferable vouchers to individuals. For the scope of this project, the G2P payments use case of focus will be limited to cash or near-cash social assistance payments. This stack does not address other types of benefits such as health insurance, delivering physical goods, food, etc. However, its components and design can be adapted to also serve other G2P payment use cases such as public wages, subsidy payments, etc.

There are many point solutions, especially within the Digital Public Goods (DPG) space that can be used to combine and provide an integrated G2P stack.

This is an open source effort to offer an integrated G2P solution blueprint and design templates using a plug-and-play architecture to enable choice of components, a set of integration specifications to ensure interoperability, a design that addresses privacy & security, along with an integration sandbox for various systems/products to build solutions adhering to the blueprint and specifications to offer a well architected and interoperable G2P solution.

All of you are most welcome to join the effort, read documentation, collaborate, leverage, and contribute!
