eTip Launches Debit Payroll Card to Modernize Tipped Wage Access

New Physical and Virtual Debit Card Provides Instant Access to Tips & Wages

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- eTip, the award-winning digital tipping and financial benefits platform specializing in digital tipping for hospitality and service industries, today announced the launch of its new, no-fee, user-friendly VISA debit payroll card. Crafted to provide service workers a modern, efficient, and flexible way to access their earnings, this innovative solution allows eTip customers to effortlessly load tips and wages onto physical and virtual debit cards. Eliminating manual processes ensures instant access to earned wages, enhancing convenience and streamlining payroll for employers and employees.

Employers are increasingly seeking solutions to streamline tip and wage distribution while eliminating the need for manual reconciliation. At the same time, employees seek faster, more secure, and more convenient ways to access their earnings. eTip's new debit card payroll product, purpose-built for the large-scale operations of hotels and hospitality companies, addresses both needs by eliminating hours or even days of financial reconciliation. With the decline of cash and the increasing demand for digital solutions, this innovation provides workers with direct, secure financial access while streamlining payroll operations for employers.

Key Features and Benefits for Service Workers:

    --  Instant Access to Tips & Wages: Employees no longer need to wait for
        checks to clear. Funds are available within seconds.
    --  No Fees, No Hidden Costs: The debit payroll card is free to get and use,
        and has no monthly maintenance fees, giving workers more flexibility
        over their finances.
    --  Convenience & Security: Service workers can access their wages anytime,
        anywhere, at thousands of ATMs or retail stores, or by adding the card
        to their favorite digital wallets.
    --  No Need for Check Cashing: Employees no longer have to deal with the
        costly and time-consuming check-cashing process. With the debit payroll
        card, they gain instant access to their full earnings, eliminating the
        hassle and ensuring they can access their funds quickly.
    --  Financial Control and Budgeting: With online and mobile access,
        employees can track their balance, monitor spending, and effectively
        budget their wages.

Key Features and Benefits for Employers:

    --  Efficient Payroll Processing: Employers can seamlessly deposit entire
        paychecks onto the Debit Payroll Card, streamlining payroll processes,
        saving time, and reducing administrative overhead. This efficient
        solution enhances convenience for employers and employees while
        minimizing payroll complexities.
    --  Cost Savings: Businesses can significantly reduce payroll processing
        costs by eliminating the need for printing and distributing physical
        checks. This streamlined approach minimizes administrative overhead,
        reduces errors, and enhances overall efficiency, making payroll more
        cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
    --  Employee Satisfaction: Instant access to wages enhances retention and
        job satisfaction, empowering employees with a modern, flexible way to
        manage their finances on their terms.
