Card Benefits

A payroll solution that is simple to implement for any size business.

Seamless Integration: Each card has a routing number and account number that works with your existing Direct Deposit program

  • We provide dedicated card services to your organization, your employees and your current Direct Deposit program or payroll provider.

Every Legal US Resident Qualifies: All employees - banked, unbanked and credit challenged are eligible for the PayCard.

  • No Age Limit! Great for employers who hire high school students part time.
  • All U.S. residents with a valid social security number or tax ID are eligible for the Platinum Pay Visa Card.
  • No credit checks are performed.  No credit reporting is submitted.
  • A simple enrollment is all that is required.

Employer Savings: The American Payroll Association estimates the cost of issuing payroll checks between $2.00 to $10.00 per check.  The Platinum Pay Visa Card utilizes the ACH Direct Deposit program or a funding account for instant transfers, cutting the costs dramatically. 

  • Eliminate check fraud.
  • Eliminate the expense of buying checks, envelops and postage.
  • Eliminate tracking of unclaimed funds (payroll checks not cashed/received).
  • Eliminate lost/stolen check replacement.
  • NO per card costs: The $3 card issue fee is waived when the card is funded within 45 days of issue.

Increased Productivity:  

  • More productivity – frees management staff from handing out checks while employees don’t need to leave work early to get checks cashed.
  • Use the Paycard to manage employee expense.

Security:

  • Employers financial information on issued checks is eliminated.
  • Eliminates Check Fraud.

Disaster Preparedness:

  • Eliminates the need for physical delivery of pay, since pay is distributed through your current ACH direct deposit system. 

Customer Service Support:

  • A personal point of contact to provide ongoing support to our employer clients.
  • Personal welcome call to cardholder upon card activation.
  • Routing and account numbers never change. If a card is lost or stolen, the employee orders their new Platinum Pay Visa Card and your payroll department does not need to be involved.

PayCard Implementation Ideas:

  • Pilot Program: Hand select a team of employees to use the card (payroll department, plant supervisors, laborers, etc.)
  • 100% Direct Deposit Initiative meeting pay without discount rules.
  • New Employee Enrollment: offer the PayCard in your New Hire kit
  • Expense card: non-payroll payments can be mandated “Direct Deposit” – expenses reports, section 125, etc. via the PayCard
  • Money Management Tool: employees can order a PayCard for family members and share money with relatives / children / students.

Let us help you mandate direct deposit. We can help you customize a program to meet state regulations and the needs of your employees, independent contractors and union members.
