SOLE Paycards Now Offered to Corporate Building Services Employees in Dallas, TX
(PRWEB) January 13, 2016 -- SOLE Financial Partners with Corporate Building Services
SOLE® Financial, a leader in the payroll card market, has partnered with Corporate Building Services (“CBS”), a Dallas, Texas-based comprehensive janitorial staffing services company, to offer the SOLE Visa® Payroll Card to its temporary employee base of 700 service, cooking, engineering, manufacturing, sanitation and porter workers.
The unbanked employees who work for CBS will now have access to services typically only offered to the banked population, such as online bill pay, point-of-sale cashback and a mobile app to check account balances. The SOLE Paycard provides cardholders with their paycard’s routing and account numbers so those employees can use the card for any direct deposits. This feature gives cardholders the ability to receive tax returns, child support, and paychecks from any job, all in one place. For many cardholders, the paycard is their first experience of holding all of their money electronically, in one FDIC-insured account.
Implementing the SOLE Paycard will allow CBS’s payroll staff to reallocate resources previously dedicated to the sorting, shipping, and envelope-stuffing of paper checks every other Friday. CBS, which prides itself on maintaining efficient business processes, was issuing 625 paper checks at the time of contract signing. CBS is expected to save $52,675 annually by transitioning those employees from paper checks to the SOLE Paycard.
“We are excited that our paycard is part of the Corporate Building Services paperless initiative,” said SOLE Financial President Tom Secor. “As I’ve gotten to know the team, it’s become apparent that their culture revolves around providing best-in-class services to both their clientele and to the employees who make it all happen. We look forward to being a part of CBS’s all-inclusive direct deposit message. For the employees, namely the unbanked, who need an alternative to the antiquated brick-and-mortar bank account, we’re ready to serve.”
From CBS Payroll Manager, Diana Arenas: “Taking care of our employees is critical to our success and was one of the main reasons we looked to partner with SOLE Financial to provide a payroll card to our people who needed access to our direct deposit system. A number of our people didn’t have a bank account and couldn’t sign up for direct deposit. With the paycard from SOLE Financial on hand, we can empower all of our employees to participate and avoid the high costs associated with check cashing.”
