Sage Payroll Paycards: The Electronic Payroll Solution

Many employers are using paycards to offer employees an alternative to paper paychecks and direct deposit. Paycards, also known as payroll cards, are plastic, stored-value cards that work like debit cards. Over $6 billion was placed on payroll cards in 2005. The use of payroll cards is expected to grow to $17 billion by 2009.

The Sage Payroll PayCard works the same way as a direct deposit transaction, and requires no additional systems, software or hardware. Your company can incorporate the Sage Payroll PayCard program into your existing process regardless of the payroll software or service you currently use. Companies simply enroll in the paycard service. If your company offers direct deposit, you can also offer the Sage Payroll PayCard. It’s that easy! With the Sage Payroll PayCard, you can offer your employees 24/7 access to funds, safety and security, on-time pay no matter what (e.g., employees on vacation or sick leave, remote employees, etc.), elimination of time-consuming trips to the bank, and more. In addition, the payroll paycard can be just as popular with the “unbanked” employee as it is for those who have a banking relationship, offering both groups more flexibility and convenience in managing their money.

Read more about Sage Payroll Paycards in a special white paper, "Flexible Electronic Payroll for All Employees: An overview of payroll card benefits and considerations for employers."
