Why Q? e-Pay Is The Way To Go


Discover how simple it is to make government payments online with ‘Why Q e-Pay' at www.gov.sg

The Why Q? e-Pay promotion – from 1 November 2006 to 28 February 2007 – is a joint effort by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) and eNETS Pte Ltd, aimed at increasing awareness and use of government online services in Singapore.

During this four-month promotion, online users stand to win attractive prizes when they transact with the government using eNETS.


The promotion is an effort by the Singapore Government in improving the reach and richness of government online services

Ms Tan Ai Ching, the grand prize winner of the Jul-Dec 2005 Why Q? e-Pay promotion, was paying her road tax via the Internet when she won. “It was so hassle-free and easy. And I am so surprised I won a plasma TV by just doing this simple task!"

Online users in the new campaign can look forward to weekly prizes of iPOD Nanos, monthly prizes of six-day four-night trips for two to Korea, and a grand prize of a 46-inch Sony LCD TV.

 

Prizes are sponsored by Network for Electronic Transfers (Singapore) Pte Ltd (NETS).

Mr Lo Yoong Khong, Deputy Director of e-Government Policies & Programmes Division for IDA, said, "Our iGov2010 vision looks to improve the reach and richness of government online services. Through the promotion with NETS, we hope to encourage more Singaporeans to transact with the government online."

"With online payment growing in tandem with broadband penetration, e-payment for government services will be commonplace once the public understands its advantages," said Raj Lorenz, General Manager for eNETS and International Markets at NETS. “As Singapore's largest gateway for online payment, eNETS is well-placed to extend the reach of government online services to the masses, in line with the iGov2010 vision."
