Seven years and counting: PayIt named to the GovTech 100 again in 2023

GovTech leader PayIt picks Toronto-based Productive Shop for North American digital marketing campaign

GovTech News

Toronto, Ontario — PayIt, an award-winning provider for digital government solutions, today announced it has hired Toronto-based Productive Shop to handle its digital marketing efforts for Canada and all of the United States. This news comes weeks after PayIt opened its Canadian headquarters in Toronto.

PayIt’s platform enables constituents to easily access government services from any device. Whether it is paying for vehicle, housing or health services, interacting with government offices has never been easier.

Improving public services by investing in Toronto’s private sector

“When we announced the opening of our Canadian headquarters we said we were committed to the government and business communities in Toronto, and we meant it,” said PayIt founder and CEO John Thomson.

“We are thrilled to partner with Productive Shop to help us spread the PayIt message to audiences in Canada and the U.S. We chose Productive Shop because of their digital technology expertise and deep knowledge of web design, SEO, and content development. We know they will be a long term partner that will help us grow all facets of our business and help us develop a global brand.”

“The PayIt team is building what most citizens and government agencies have been patiently waiting for, a hassle free platform to conduct business with provincial and municipal offices. Currently the ecosystem is fragmented, citizens scramble to use various sites, which is time consuming and frustrating – PayIt solves that,” said Productive Shop founder Imran Selimkhanov.

He continued, “The fact that the team mutually agreed to work with us is a testament of their promise to invest in the Canadian business sector. We’re a selective B2B agency and accept clients by referral only, we are excited to have started this relationship to help grow the government and public service platform awareness. PayIt simplifies the way people transact with core government services.”

In addition to showing its support of Toronto by partnering with Toronto businesses, PayIt has also committed to investing in Toronto’s future. Just last month PayIt announced a sponsoring partnership with Women Who Code Toronto, to help inspire women to pursue careers in information technology.
