Rellevate revolutionizes public sector fund distribution with our cutting-edge digital banking and payment solutions.
Our innovative platform streamlines disbursements across essential government programs, ensuring efficient, secure, and accessible financial services for citizens.
Government disbursements are the electronic distribution of public funds, such as unemployment benefits, child support, foster care subsidies, and one-time emergency assistance, from government agencies directly to recipients. Modern digital disbursement platforms replace paper checks and legacy EBT cards with instant, secure transfers, reducing costs for agencies and giving recipients real-time access to their money.

Yes. Rellevate’s digital disbursements are issued through regulated bank partners and run on major payment networks, with encryption, fraud monitoring, and program controls built in. Delivering funds directly to a wallet or card also reduces the risk of checks being lost or stolen in the mail.
EBT (Electronic Benefit Transfer) has long supported programs like SNAP and certain cash assistance. Modern digital disbursement platforms build on that foundation by extending electronic payments to a broader range of programs, supporting faster delivery, and giving agencies real-time visibility into disbursements. Digital disbursements can complement existing EBT programs where agencies need more flexibility, scale, or different payment options.
Agencies can use a digital disbursement platform to send funds directly to a recipient’s virtual wallet or card—without requiring an existing bank account. This is the model Rellevate used to help deliver over $1 billion in cash assistance to more than 3 million residents of Georgia in just weeks.
Rellevate partnered with the State of Georgia to distribute over $1 billion in just weeks, supporting 3 million Georgians with one of the largest deployments of virtual wallets in a government program.
