What ScotPayments is

ScotPayments is a payment service designed and built by the Scottish Government. It allows the Scottish public sector to make outbound payments to people or organisations.

Custom built features

ScotPayments has custom built features designed for government, by government. This means it’s quicker and easier to make payments through ScotPayments, rather than relying on legacy technology or an off the shelf product.

Common platform with shared standards

ScotPayments is a common platform with shared standards, it can slot into your organisation’s current technology frameworks. It also means that when we need to update something, our team can do it once to update the payment system for every organisation.

Government priority

ScotPayments is part of the push towards common platforms highlighted in the Digital Strategy, to transform the payments landscape and lead to improved public services. By using ScotPayments, organisations will have more time to focus on operational front line work rather than back end products and services.
