Investment Detail

Pay.gov life cycle benefits are based on historic unit cost for processing Internet based collection transactions versus the unit cost of paper-based collection methods which results in a cost avoidance. Pay.gov is a more efficient collection mechanism as compared to paper-based collections as measured by the unit cost (.24 in FY2022.).
Revenue Collection Management (RCM), a department of Treasury's Fiscal Service, charged Pay.gov with supporting Treasury's goals through the following business goals:
Promote financial stability through financial sector critical infrastructure and cybersecurity. (Supports Fiscal Service Strategic Goal One)
Transform government-wide financial stewardship through financial data access and use, debt management, and federal financial performance. (Supports Fiscal Service Strategic Goals Four and Five)
Achieve operational excellence. (Supports Fiscal Service Strategic Goal One).
