- nFinanSe Inc. (OTCBB:NFSE) today announced that it has signed an agreement with Paychecks Plus, Inc., a payroll and professional employer organization (PEO) with employees and clients in over 10 states, to be its exclusive Pay Card Program provider.

The administration of payroll is a large expense for all companies, large or small. According to the American Payroll Association, it costs between $1 and $2 to process, print and deliver a paycheck and approximately $9 to replace lost or stolen paychecks. The nFinanSe Pay Card eliminates these payroll costs. Issuance of the nFinanSe Pay Card to employees is relatively easy to implement and increases employee direct deposit participation and therefore, employee productivity as they no longer need to pick

up their paycheck, leave work to wait in line at a bank or check cashing location and incur excessive fees for cashing their paycheck.

"There are currently 70 million unbanked or underbanked adults in the U.S. paying a significant percentage in check cashing fees and money orders to conduct their financial business. The nFinanSe Pay Card is an inexpensive alternative to bank accounts and credit cards and is a necessity for the large percentage of the population without bank accounts. It is a way of having a 'plastic card' that can be loaded with their paycheck and used repeatedly for payments as required in our 'card payment world.' Employees are no longer limited to the cash they carry in their wallets," stated Clare Morgan, nFinanSe's Vice President of Marketing.

Paychecks Plus is offering the nFinanSe Pay Card as an alternative to traditional paper checks, thereby providing their employees with the cost savings, convenience, flexibility and security of a card-based program. Participating employees will have their payroll electronically deposited onto their instantly issued nFinanSe Discover(R) Network Pay Card. The Pay Card can be used to make purchases at millions of merchant locations nationwide - including online and over the telephone - and to access cash at ATMs. Plus, one of the "cool tools" available with an nFinanSe Pay Card is the ability to receive an email or text message with purchase and balance information after each purchase or transaction, and on pay day, receive summary pay stub information.

According to Cherie Fretto, President and CEO of Paychecks Plus, "While evaluating pay card issuers, we realized that nFinanSe was able to provide us with both the economics of electronic paychecks plus the benefits of a card program for our employees. The success of any pay card program demands buy-in from the top, but, it also requires that the card be a product that employees want, know how to use and in the end, is cost effective to use. With nFinanSe, it is a win-win for all parties."

"As with all of our cardholders, employees of Paychecks Plus will be able to go to any nFinanSe Network(TM) location nationwide, including MoneyGram(R) and Western Union(R), and load the funds from a second paycheck from another job or cash from other activities to their Pay Card. In addition, the nFinanSe Pay Card does not 'nickel and dime' employees with hidden fees, charges for making purchases or charges for calling our 24/7 Bilingual Customer Service Center," concluded Ms. Morgan.
