My fiancé will be getting a surgery that will take him out of work for a month or so, and his pay will be reduced during that time. [Push-to-debit] will help tide us over to pay for week-to-week household items…

Challenge: Getting up to speed quickly in a crowded financial services market
The worlds of lending, money services businesses, brokerages and payroll are increasingly driven by convenience, flexibility and speed of funds access. No matter what the industry, customers want access to their funds 24/7. For TabaPay’s clients to remain competitive, they need to keep innovating and move funds quickly, reliably and securely to any debit card, at any time – even outside of banking hours. To meet these needs, TabaPay set out to build a payout option that combines the cost savings of ACH, the guaranteed nature of wire transfers and the speed, coverage and on-demand availability of push-to-debit/pull-from-debit, so their clients could better serve customers with immediate needs.
Solution: Innovating funds transfers to help clients stand out
TabaPay decided to tap Visa Direct to help enable clients to securely disburse loans or payouts in real time,* directly to the recipient’s Visa debit card. Clients like lenders, check cashers, currency exchange companies and money order and remittance handlers can now release funds to customers’ cards faster,* even when outside of banking hours. Push-to-debit saves on check or ACH handling times, helping set clients apart from their competition. Compared to other solutions, Visa Direct offers simple, direct connectivity and payouts to a card that’s already in most people’s wallets.
Result: Delivering real value for a large and diverse client base
TabaPay’s push-to-debit solution enabled by Visa Direct combines the ubiquity of a card that’s already in the wallet of most Americans with the flexibility to handle a wide variety of use cases. For TabaPay, this adds up to an incredible business opportunity, and a great way to help clients offer value to their customers.
