‘e-Pay Punjab upgraded to ensure effortless tax payments’

LAHORE: Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) Chairman Faisal Yousaf has said that e-Pay Punjab, a mobile application for payment of taxes and fees, was upgraded to ensure effortless tax payments and enhance user experience.

“The citizens can save their time and petrol, as they can pay taxes from the comfort of their homes instead of visiting government offices; 33 taxes of 14 different departments can now be paid with just one click through e-Pay Punjab,” he said while chairing a departmental meeting on Tuesday.

He further said that the app, developed by the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB), in collaboration with the Punjab Finance Department, has been upgraded to make its user interface more attractive and user-friendly. “The details of various government departments were presented in the app in the form of attractive icons allowing users to view tax details of each department by clicking on the respective icons,” he added.

“A 'favourite' button has also been added to the home screen, enabling citizens to easily include traffic fines and other taxes on their home screens, saving time and making payments more convenient,” he said, adding that additionally, a 'slider bar' has been added to the home screen, displaying important and up-to-date information about the app and taxes.
