According to Taiwan's "Dongsen News Cloud". In response to the trend of mobile payment, the Taipei Municipal Government held a press conference at the end of last year (2016) and in February this year (2017), to preview the future of the roadside parking fees, tap water fees, United Hospital medical expenses, etc. in Taipei City will be paid through the Taipei Municipal Government’s intelligent payment platform "Pay.taipei", and announced that the platform will be officially launched in March this year. However, after investigation by Taipei City Councilman Li Jianchang, it was found that the system of Pay.taipei and Taipei Citizen Card 3.0 have not been properly integrated, and the launch may be nowhere to be possible.

Taipei City Government Intelligent Payment Platform Pay.taipei System Construction Tender was won by Taiwan's "Blue New Technology" for NT$7 million in March 2016. On February 18 this year, the Taipei Municipal Information Bureau made a big move and handled a press conference across bureaus, inviting the suspension department, the tap water department and the United Hospital to cooperate, and swore with 8 payment operators to jointly launch the platform, so as to benefit the public in the future, through mobile APP, they will be able to pay various fees at any time and anywhere with multiple tools. The announcement will be launched online in March to serve citizens.

However, after Li Jianchang checked, he found that the organizer of the Taipei Municipal Information Bureau admitted that he had long discovered that the system of Pay.taipei and Taipei Card 3.0 had not been successfully integrated. Only after the Information Director Li Weibin reported to Ke Wenzhe and could the real launch date be decided.

Regarding the questioning of the lawmakers, the Taipei Municipal Information Bureau responded that the Taipei Municipal Government’s intelligent payment platform Pay.taipei plans to be built in two stages. The first stage plan combines the online citizen verification mechanism and integrates the payment pipeline of 8 action payment operators to provide a variety of payment options for the people, and has entered the "test" of real data.

Information Bureau stated that in March, the first phase of the plan would be launched, combining online citizen certification with payment platforms and integrating eight mobile payment operators; the second phase would be added to mobile or bank certification functions. However, considering that the "National Science and Technology Council" and "Silicon Valley in Asia" plans will also be integrated in June for the financial technology and telecommunications industry. The Information Bureau decided to integrate the first phase plan to the second phase, so that the plan will be in place at one time. The overall plan limit will be postponed, and the Information Director Li Weibin is also willing to bear it.

Li Jianchang pointed out that the first shot by Deputy Mayor Deng Jiaji of Taipei City at the end of last year and the preview service content will be expanded this year; in February this year, the Information Bureau held the second press conference with confidence. Now that Pay.taipei's launch date may be postponed to June, "Why is the system unsuccessful announcement to the world before it is integrated? The system is officially launched by then. Will you have to spend money to hold the third press conference?! Is the first two reporters holding a wine or consuming a budget?" In addition, because the built-in platform failed to be launched as scheduled, the Taipei Municipal Government also needs to pay an extra service fee to Lanxin Technology Company, which will undoubtedly increase the burden on the municipal database and waste citizens' tax payments.
