Digital Payments – NetaPAY

The solution for digitizing the collection process — simple, reliable, and multichannel.

NetaPAY is the cloud-native platform for real-time digital payment collection, developed by Engineering.

It is designed to enable full operability within the PagoPA network.
NetaPAY connects to the multichannel infrastructures of PSPs (Payment Service Providers) and acts as an intelligent bridge between the client's management system and the PagoPA technology intermediary, handling all verification, control, reporting, and execution activities required by regulations.

The platform is fully hosted on an AgID-qualified Cloud infrastructure, offering native scalability to support the growth of volumes and users, flexibility in adapting to the customer's workflows and processes, 24h operational continuity, even in the most critical contexts. Thanks to its advanced architecture, the solution allows PSPs to execute payments directly on the customer's systems in a secure and compliant way and provides the service of an accredited technology partner, thus ensuring a complete, stable, and certified connection to the PagoPA platform.

Why Choose Neta

A single system for all payments

Centralized management of payments on PagoPA, even in the presence of multiple management systems, thanks to a subscription-based architecture. A single control point for a wide range of application contexts.

Flexible integration with intermediaries

Maximum freedom in choosing or replacing technology intermediaries, thanks to standard interfaces and native connectors that simplify and speed up the integration process.

Active monitoring and anomaly management

Integrated monitoring, alert, and diagnostic tools enable prompt and accurate intervention in the event of malfunctions or anomalies in payment and reporting flows.

Multi-entity and centralized management of services

Native support for multi-entity (multitenancy) management, ideal for multi-utility companies or groups managing payments for multiple companies or business units, with customizable service models.

Open and compatible with all systems

Integrated with the entire Neta suite, yet fully compatible with third-party systems such as SAP, Terranova, and other ERP/CRM platforms commonly used in the Utilities and Public Administration sectors.

Complete and simplified management of the payment cycle

End-to-end coverage of the entire cycle — from verification to the management of the electronic receipt, including notification and request handling. It also includes the ability to onboard new PSPs without manual intervention from the creditor entity.

Centralized management of the Expected Payments Archive (APA)

NetaPAY seamlessly manages debtor positions generated by multiple subsystems and enables real-time recording of payments through the PagoPA multichannel network (with over 400 PSPs).

Full automation of reporting and accounting

The system automatically receives, processes, and manages the reporting flows notified by PSP, linking them to the corresponding debtor positions and generating accounting entries. These are stored in an internal repository, enabling structured access to the files.

Automated financial reconciliation (optional)

NetaPAY enables automated reconciliation between bank transactions and reporting flows, highlighting any anomalies (discrepancies, shortfalls) through configurable workflows.

Full support for all PagoPA models

It supports the main payment models provided by PagoPA: Model 1 — direct payment via the Creditor Entity’s portal or app; Model 3 — payment through PSPs (e.g., ATMs, home banking, physical branches). NetaPAY manages standard interfaces such as payment verification, outcome notification, and electronic receipts in XML/PDF format.

Flexible integration with intermediaries and external portals

NetaPAY provides standard connectors for the most widely used intermediaries and supports open integration methods, enabling interoperability with both Neta systems and portals and third-party and platforms. This ensures scalability and independence from the Creditor Entity’s technological infrastructure.

Multitenancy support and service-based management for multiple entities

The platform is designed for multi-tenant management (multitenancy), enabling the delivery of payment services as a service to multiple organizations, each with its own subscribers, users, and customized processes.

Security

Management of the Expected Payments Archive (APA) in the cloud, shielding management systems from unnecessary intrusion risks, with technology focused on security and performance

Reliability

System designed to handle hot updates, separated from management systems to allow for both routine and extraordinary maintenance.

Time to market

Ready-to-use and fully operational solution: with just a few clicks, you can configure the new provider and choose from the available technology partners to be immediately integrated with PagoPA.

Fully open-source solution

Features a highly competitive per-transaction pricing model, offering minimal costs for public entities and operators — outperforming many alternatives on the market.

Simple, fast, and always under control payments

With a single code (NAV/IUV), the customer can make secure payments through over 400 PSPs across a wide range of channels (ATMs, apps, home banking, and physical branches). Before making the payment, they have full transparency on the amounts and any applicable fees.

Freedom of choice and complete autonomy

The customer decides where, how, and with whom to pay, leveraging competition among PSP to get the best service — with no constraints and maximum flexibility.

Accelerated collection, guaranteed reconciliation

Payments are credited as early as the day after the transaction, with guaranteed automatic reconciliation: unauthorized or unmatched payments are not allowed.

Minimized errors, reduced manual effort

Process automation drastically reduces the risk of duplicate or incorrect payments, streamlining operations for the Collections Office and improving service quality.
