About the Go DE Initiative



Go DE is a partnership among the Governor’s office, OST, GIC, and DTI to develop the new digital government portal for residents and visitors. This portal will provide a single human-centered entry to reach state services managed across many different agencies.

Phase 1 of Go DE focuses on replacement of the statewide legacy web payment system (”Govolution”) with a single configurable SnapPay integration. This evolution allows Go DE-integrated agencies to provide customers with an enterprise single highly-configurable touchpoint fronted by the Go DE Payment Engine. Residents and visitors can make trusted web payments for multiple state agency products and services, using a secure, responsive, and accessible industry leading solution.

The Go DE roadmap includes support for both an anonymous payment engine (i.e., resembling the legacy Govolution method) and the ability for people to connect via a more secure, authenticated My Delaware ID identity for a highly personalized experience. By using their trusted identity, people can monitor and view all their transactions enabled by Go DE.

As Go DE evolves beyond Phase 1, it will add many features to support more general intake and information services, beyond integrated payments. Go DE will be able to deliver service intake of behalf of agencies including such advanced features as multi-step form intakes, digital signing with digital signature processors, payment via the Payment Engine, notifications, notarization, image capture, document uploads, payment reconciliation and more.

“We should also make it easier for everyday Delawareans to interact with their state government.

We need a One Stop for Delaware Citizens – where you can buy your park pass, register to vote, renew your license or check for snow closures.”

– Governor John Carney 2020 State of the State
