Transforming wage payments for Green Grace Farms

THE PROBLEM

Green Grace Farms faced a problem that’s all too familiar for many businesses: how to efficiently and securely pay their workers. The farm relied on cash to pay its workers. While cash was simple, it came with significant risks. Theft was a constant worry, and the manual handling of wages was time-consuming.

To address these concerns, the farm transitioned to traditional bank cards. While the transition improved the safety of their wage payments, the solution introduced new issues. Workers had limited control over their cards, and spent hours at banks for minor tasks like PIN changes.

THE SOLUTION

Seeking a more effective system, Green Grace Farms adopted our CashCentral reloadable cards. These easy-to-use Mastercards for farmworkers came with many benefits as PayCentral’s solution didn’t just stop at providing cards.

Their self-service platform gave Green Grace Farms the power to manage wage payments with ease. The farm handled tasks like resetting PINs, loading wages onto cards, and activating new cards – all in-house.

This completely eliminated the need for bank visits. Workers also gained a much better experience. The reloadable cards worked at any card machine, allowing them to shop, withdraw cash, and make payments with ease. Unlike traditional bank cards, these cards provided flexibility without added complications.
