The City of Asheville, North Carolina, has selected Velosimo Connect to integrate the Accela Civic Platform with Elavon, streamlining payment processing and enhancing staff efficiency. The project was initiated to replace a legacy integration under a tight deadline, and was delivered on time, without disruption.

For government agencies, manual reconciliation and disconnected payment systems often lead to data inconsistencies, staff frustration, and delayed services. With Velosimo Connect, Asheville has eliminated those challenges by deploying a purpose-built, off-the-shelf integration that enables real-time payment processing directly within Accela, no custom development, no middleware, and no surprises.

With the new integration, payments made through Elavon are automatically synced back into Accela, reducing reconciliation time, eliminating duplicate entries, and increasing transparency across departments. This direct connection empowers staff to focus on higher-value tasks while ensuring greater accuracy and audit readiness.

Asheville’s deployment is another example of how Velosimo Connect acts as the glue that holds government systems together, seamlessly linking permitting, licensing, payments, and more to help agencies work smarter and more effectively.

By choosing Velosimo Connect, the City of Asheville is not just solving an immediate need; it’s laying the groundwork for a more connected, digital-first government that can adapt and scale as technology evolves.
