At present, the E-Government Gateway includes a total of 21 services as well as information on administrative procedures. Secure transaction is currently provided through electronic signature, mobile electronic signature or password offered to users upon request. Future enhancements will facilitate users to access the portal with smart cards. In addition, the system will be extended to serve additional communication devices like cell phones and Pocket PCs.
Furthermore, the implementation of a payment/banking module is also in the pipeline and will provide each electronic service with a central mechanism to enable payments and money transfers between the government agencies and users.
The project's responsibility lies with the government company Turksat, Turkey's main provider of Satellite and IT infrastructure services. The portal can be accessed at http://www.turkiye.gov.tr.
