About this opportunity

The Internal Revenue Service published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to award bridge contracts to incumbent contractors Link2Gov, WorldPay, and ACI Payments to continue providing electronic payment services from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. The contractors currently capture payment information from over 8.6 billion taxpayers annually who use credit cards to pay taxes via phone, internet, and mobile devices, obtaining authorization, providing confirmation numbers, and transmitting payment files. Full and open competition was deemed infeasible due to the extensive testing and certification required of new contractors to ensure uninterrupted taxpayer access and compliance with program requirements for the 2024 tax filing season.

Notice text

The Internal Revenue Service has a continuing need to have an Electronic Credit Card Payment Program that allows taxpayers to pay their federal tax liabilities by means of Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Internet or mobile device. The Electronic Credit Card Payment Program's mission is to offer convenient, safe, and secure payment methods that allow taxpayers to electronically pay individual and business taxes. The current credit card payment program is a key tax payment method that encourages and reduces paper handling for the service. The credit card program supports IRS and Wage and Investment (W&I) Strategic goals of promoting paperless filing and enables taxpayers to conduct transactions electronically with the IRS. The contractors capture taxpayer card and payment information, obtain real time authorization of the line of credit, provide taxpayers with a confirmation number at the end of the transaction and transmit files to a Treasury Financial Agent as required by the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) Credit Card Bulk Provider Requirements. 

Awarded contract 2032H8-24-C-00004 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2024-12-18.
