After three years of work, the New South Wales government is planning to complete its transition to Australia’s digital payments system, a faster, more efficient solution to traditional payments.
The government has focused on ensuring agencies are using what’s already available to them, like the Customer Payment Platform (CPP), which is operated by the Department of Customer Service. The state’s Department of Education and Transport are currently using the CPP, according to Lynne Cardwell, NSW Treasury’s executive director for banking and financial services.
