MyStub webinars resonate - now with special offers

We're pleased at the response to the MyStub webinars. We've scheduled three so far, had to add a fourth because of demand, and may put them on a recurring schedule. Since belt-tightening has become a necessity, electronic paystubs are the logical next step once direct deposit (with Directo paycards, of course) is offered. Why print and distribute paper stubs? On payday, employees want to know net pay, and questions about withholding for taxes and benefits are easily viewed online. The savings in time and supplies is eye-opening.

To celebrate the MyStub launch, we're offering two Summer Specials guaranteed to save you even more.

Want to attend a webinar? Email bplatas@directo.net to be added to the list.

Cut costs before cutting staff

The latest Labor Department employment statistics show that U.S. jobs continue to decline. As small and mid-size businesses struggle to deliver products and services with diminished resources and personnel, others fight to keep the team they've worked hard to build.

Among the efficiencies that businesses can employ is the proven cost savings of direct deposit and payroll cards. Find how much your company can save.

At Directo, we've seen paycard use increase, as well as more companies willing to mandate direct deposit. The savings can be significant.

When your provider becomes your competitor...

Gaining a competitive advantage is tough enough without having your provider in a joint venture with your competitor. It came as a surprise when I read this announcement:
First Data (Money Network) and Bank of America created a joint venture to market credit, debit and prepaid cards as well as merchant loyalty, check and eCommerce payment processing to small business, commercial and corporate clients worldwide.
What does this signal to the Regional and Community banks?
Call Directo to find out how we support our bank clients and their paycard needs.
