NatPay Announces Extended Hours for Growing Number of ACH Customers

NatPay's New Extended Hours

Tampa, FL (February 10, 2012) – In order to accommodate a thriving West Coast customer base as well as provide valuable processing time to customers in all time zones, National Payment Corporation (NatPay) recently adopted a new operating schedule that gives payroll administrators more time to process their payroll.

“Based on our current growth, we’ve expanded our hours as a convenience to our ACH customers. They can now upload ACH payroll files until 8:50 p.m. ET starting February 13th, 2012. Customer support and technical support access has also been extended. In the past, we’ve gotten great feedback from our customers when NatPay has extended its hours before, especially from our friends on the West Coast, so naturally we are very excited about increasing our hours of operation once again,” explains Mark Williams, NatPay’s Marketing Director.

Many organizations have already made the switch to direct deposit and paperless pay stubs, but some still struggle to meet payroll submission deadlines. By extending their operating hours, NatPay is better able to accommodate growth into larger segments of the payroll processing ACH market. The new schedule also provides a critical advantage over traditional banking-based direct deposit models that force customers to adapt to standard banking hours, thereby failing to address the need for after-hours processing and live assistance – a key service that many banks simply cannot offer.

Since 1991, NatPay has become one of the nation’s largest independent Direct Deposit service providers. Today it remains one of the nation’s leading providers for all ACH distribution solutions. NatPay’s suite of paperless distribution solutions continues to expand, and now includes custom online document management solutions, online pay stubs, pay cards for employees without bank accounts, W-2s and other tax forms, electronic invoicing, and online billing with Click-To-Pay capabilities. By utilizing a fully-customizable SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that is SSAE 16 SOC 1 audited, NatPay’s ACH distribution services are safe, secure, and save employers time and money by eliminating tedious printing and envelope-stuffing processes.

“Per the recent changes to NACHA rules and regulations, NatPay fully understands that their customers need more time to get their work done since many are being asked to do more with less staff and fewer resources. NatPay simply wants to help their customers by giving them more time to send in their ACH files, and by giving them peace of mind that all compliance issues and and audit requirements are taken care of for them since NatPay has just completed a successful NACHA audit as well as the SSAE 16 SOC 1 audit,” says Williams.

National Payment Corporation Takes Wireless Payroll to Southeastern Educators

Tampa, FL (April 9, 2007) – National Payment Corporation announced today that it is sending delegates to the Southeastern Association of School Business Officials and South Carolina Spring Conference to demonstrate the latest innovations in the wireless payroll industry. National Payment’s Web Direct Deposit service, EZStub electronic pay stubs, and employee paycard programs have helped schools across the country save money, time, and critical human resources. By using National Payment’s “Keep More Money in Your Schools” program, many Southeastern schools have already reaped the rewards of a “less-paper” approach to their payroll process.

“We investigated and found EZStub to be a terrific idea,” said Sam Hurst, Executive Director of Business Services for the Citrus County School Board in Florida. “It piqued our interest because of the cost, and the fact that our staff spends three days stuffing envelopes for each payroll.”

Once schools eliminate the expense of creating, printing, and distributing paper checks and pay stubs, they can often save thousands of dollars each year. “ By drastically reducing their payroll administration costs, school officials can redirect valuable resources to other areas,” said Jim Hagen, National Payment’s VP of Sales and Marketing.

The Southeastern Association of School Business Officials (SASBO) is a regional non-profit organization made up of public and nonprofit school personnel from the twelve southeastern states – Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia. SASBO’s goal is to improve education by supporting the networking and professional development of its school administrators.
Their spring conference will be held from April 23rd through the 26th in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

For more information, please visit National Payment Corporation’s education website at http://www.schoolstubs.com or call 1-800-927-6120 for a free demonstration.
