"What really attracted us to eCommLink is how nimble and flexible the system is and how responsive they are as a company," stated Mike Busher, President, VAT. "We were able to seamlessly integrate to their extensive API library. Throughout the entire process, we knew that we could pick up the phone and receive an answer immediately if we had any questions. It's hard to underscore just how important this type of responsiveness is for us and for the clients we will be bringing on board."
"Every once in awhile you are lucky enough to find a partner who truly values the same things you do. VAT has the same passion for prepaid debit, the same focus on innovation and the same dedication to service that we have. This makes for a very powerful partnership; one that I expect we will see rapid growth from in the next few months," stated T. Jack Williams, CEO, eCommLink.
The first programs that eCommLink will process for VAT are prepaid payroll cards. These prepaid debit cards enable businesses to offer direct deposit to their employees who do not have a traditional bank account. Payroll cards are the fastest growing segment of the prepaid debit industry because they offer significant benefits for every party involved, including the employee who enjoys instant access to funds, the employer who cuts disbursement costs and the banks who are able to retain funds within their institution longer. Prepaid debit cards for multi-level marketing commission payments, payday loans, and consumer rebate and incentive programs will also be offered through this partnership.
