How does direct deposit to the employee
PAYCHEK PLUS! card work?
The process is identical to traditional direct deposit
except funds are deposited to the PAYCHEK PLUS!
card account, not a personal bank account. Please refer the procedures outlined
in the Payroll System Update section of this document.
How do I promote the PAYCHEK PLUS! program
to my employees?
Always rely on the features and benefits outlined within the materials provided
to you. Provide information on bulletin boards, through departmental distribution,
in break rooms, in their paycheck envelopes - any place where you can highlight
the value this program will deliver - then schedule an employee meeting to
discuss the program and enroll employees.
Can employees choose not to participate?
Existing employees must have the option to continue to receive their pay via
paper paycheck. However, it is in your best interest to promote PAYCHEK
PLUS! as the replacement to paper paychecks and require existing
employees to 'opt out' of the process by completing a form available through
your Human Resources department.
How do employees sign up for the PAYCHEK PLUS!
card?
Once an employee elects to be paid using PAYCHEK PLUS!,
they obtain a card from you, complete the Employee Enrollment form and begin
enjoying the benefits of PAYCHEK PLUS!. The Employee Enrollment
form is similar to traditional direct deposit forms and should be kept within
the employee's files.
I currently utilize a payroll processor. How will the
PAYCHEK PLUS! card affect this process?
Most payroll processors already provide direct deposit service to their customers.
Our process is a similar process, therefore it shouldn't impact your payroll
processor. The employee is paid directly on the PAYCHEK PLUS!
card.
How long will it take from my company signing on with
PAYCHEK PLUS! to actually be able to process payroll using the
system?
Having your company set up to begin enrolling employees will happen within
just a few days. However, if your payroll system/provider requires a pre-note
process, it may take more one or more pay periods for the process to become
active.
What if an employee's card is lost or stolen?
Refer to the procedures outlined within this document. The cardholder has
the ability to transfer funds from the old account to the new very quickly
and easily, or they can report the loss to FSV and have the funds transferred
by the Customer Service Department. Either way, it is important that the cardholder
reacts quickly when they discover the loss - in all cases, the cardholder
can contact FSV to immediately have funds frozen, preventing further loss.
What if an error is made in payroll calculation and an
overpayment or underpayment of payroll occurs?
This type of error is corrected by your Payroll Department by initiating two
transactions: one to reverse the incorrect amount and one to deposit the correct
payroll amount.
What if an employee reports that an unauthorized charge
has occurred on his/her PAYCHEK PLUS! card?
Have the employee contact Customer Service immediately at your program specific
toll free number. Make sure the employee refers to his/her cardholder agreement
disclosure under "Error Resolution Procedures" and follows the requested
procedures to expedite the correction to be made.
