Riata Capital Group (“Riata” or “RCG”), a Dallas-based private equity investment firm, today announced it has made a strategic investment in Government Window (the “Company”) to support the Company’s next phase of growth. Headquartered in Kennesaw, GA, Government Window provides state and local governments with a proprietary payments software platform that facilitates payment collection across a broad array of payment methods and service lines. Riata’s investment will support Government Window’s accelerated geographic expansion and the continued buildout of its leading payments software platform.

Government Window’s platform facilitates payments transactions between government departments and constituents, allowing citizens to make payments online, in-person, or by phone while providing governments with advanced back-end financial workflow and reporting tools. Operating across more than 30 states and serving more than 550 county and municipal customers, the Company provides its customers with a no-cost, highly secure, and customizable payments platform that includes white-glove customer service, tailored payment and reconciliation reporting, and improved financial oversight. Constituents looking to submit payments through Government Window across a wide array of government departments benefit from increased convenience and an intuitive interface which enables a seamless payments experience via the platform’s purpose-built features and designs.

Jeff Fronterhouse, Managing Partner of RCG, said, “Scott and his team have systematically built one of the leading payments solutions in the government market. By delivering a proprietary and modern software solution, supported by white-glove customer service, the Company delivers exceptional value to its state and local government customers as evidenced by its high customer retention and best-in-class NPS.
