This case study explores the implementation of payroll cards as a business solution. ACCESS Financial (Company) identified a growing market opportunity in the prepaid card sector. The company researched small community banks and credit unions (FI’s) with limited financial and human resources to launch a prepaid card program and found that these institutions were not able to offer their business customers a solution to help reduce payroll service costs by replacing paper checks with payroll cards. The aim was to reach out to the FI’s to assist them by providing a turn-key solution that would modernize their customers payroll process, reduce administrative overheads, and empower unbanked employees with a more convenient, cost effective, and flexible financial solution.
