GovTech API integration

South Africa citizens expect digital services. API integration connects front-end portals to back-office systems without multi-year replatforming.

Legacy wrap vs replace

Often the fastest path is an API layer over existing systems — buying time for full modernisation while delivering online services now.

What our government integration delivers

From strategy to launch — every site is engineered for speed, SEO, and conversions.

Citizen service portals

Online applications, status tracking, and document upload connected to back-office case management.

Inter-agency data exchange

Governed APIs between departments with role-based access and audit logging.

Payment gateway integration

PayFast and government payment flows for fees, fines, and service charges.

Identity verification

ID validation and document checks for citizen onboarding.

Legacy modernisation

API wrappers around mainframe and on-prem databases for cloud service consumption.

Reporting & BI feeds

Scheduled and event-driven data pipelines to dashboards and national reporting systems.

Permit application

Apply online → validate → route to official → inspection schedule → outcome notify.

Fee payment

Quote → pay → receipt → case advance → ERP post.

Cross-department verify

Citizen consent → verify registry → return minimal attributes.

Do you work with legacy government systems?

Yes. We wrap legacy databases and batch systems with modern REST APIs for portal and SaaS consumption.

How do you ensure POPIA compliance?

Purpose limitation, consent where required, access controls, and logging on every data exchange.

Can you integrate SARS or CIPC data?

Where official APIs or approved channels exist, we integrate with proper credential management.

What is typical project duration?

Pilot portals: 8–12 weeks. Enterprise inter-agency hubs: 3–6 months depending on security review cycles.
