Payroll cards • A payroll card is a card that allows an employee to access their paycheck by using a card that looks like a bank debit card. • A payroll card can be more convenient than using a check cashier, because it can be used at participating automatic teller machines (ATM) to withdraw cash, or in shops to make purchases. • The payroll card account usually is held as a single account in the employer's name. That account holds the payroll funds for all employees using the payroll card system. Some payroll card programs establish a separate account for each employee, but others do not. • Most payroll cards will charge a fee if used at an ATM more than once per pay period.
