In a major stride toward digital governance, Sri Lanka’s Information and Communication Technology Agency (ICTA) is preparing to launch a unified “Super App” aimed at transforming citizen interaction with government services. The initiative is part of a broader national strategy to streamline public sector operations through cutting-edge digital infrastructure and reduce dependency on paper-based systems.
The ‘Super App’ will serve as a centralised mobile platform integrating various government services into a single interface. ICTA’s Acting CEO Sanjaya Karunasena described it as the next phase in Sri Lanka’s Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) journey, building on the recently introduced GovPay system, which laid the groundwork for online payment facilitation across state institutions.
“The app is already under development, and the first rollout is expected within the next six months,” Karunasena announced at a media briefing. He explained that the platform would allow citizens to digitally access key services, including national ID, examination certificates, and licenses, all stored and managed through a secure mobile system.
