Kittrell Paycard Adds InstantWage™ To All Its Payroll Cards
BOCA RATON, Fla. (PRWEB) March 27, 2018 -- Cardplatforms announced that its long-standing partner Kittrell Paycard, a leading provider of prepaid payroll cards to the staffing industry, has launched InstantWage on all of its payroll cards. InstantWage is a new feature that allows cardholders to immediately* transfer a portion of their earned but unpaid wages to their payroll card so they no longer have to wait until payday. An unexpected expense or short-term cash volatility no longer have to force employees to turn to predatory lending products that charge high fees and interest rates.
Through Kittrell Paycard’s extensive network of staffing company clients, InstantWage will be available to tens of thousands of employees across the country to help them fight the effects of financial stress. To take advantage of the benefits of InstantWage, employees must have a Kittrell Paycard.
The pain of employee financial stress isn’t felt by just employees. It also substantially impacts the employer and their bottom-line. Research has proven that cash-strapped employees get less done, call out sick more often and are more likely to look for another job. By offering InstantWage, employers can not only help employees improve their overall financial health but they can also increase worksite productivity, reduce absenteeism and improve retention.
“One of the biggest strengths of our Blu Box technology platform is its ability to easily add new products and features like InstantWage to help our clients stay on the cutting edge of payments innovation,” said Darin Petty, President and COO, Cardplatforms. “InstantWage is transforming how companies pay wages to meet the changing needs of today’s employee.”
“We believe InstantWage will prove to be a great competitive advantage for our clients, as it will help them increase productivity and attract the best team members,” said Mary Kittrell-Kinkaid, CEO, Kittrell Paycard. “For our hardworking cardholders, InstantWage is a powerful financial wellness tool that will make a difference in their lives instead of pushing them into a vicious cycle of re-borrowing.”
InstantWage is exclusively available to Cardplatforms’ clients. To learn more about InstantWage, visit http://www.cardplatforms.com/Instantwage.
