Fiserv,
Inc.
(NASDAQ:FISV), a leading global provider of financial services
technology solutions, announced today that on-demand payment pioneer
FlexWage Solutions is expanding the ways wage earners can receive their
pay to align with how people live and work today. In addition to being
able to access their pay on-demand via a FlexWage-branded card, earners
can now send their pay directly to their checking accounts at the time
of their choice via Fiserv technology.

“Life does not revolve around two-week pay periods,” said Frank
Dombroski, Chief Executive Officer, FlexWage. “A car repair or medical
expense often can’t wait, and not being able to pay is extremely
stressful. Having access to their money when it is earned can improve
not only people’s financial well-being, it can improve their entire
lives.”

By leveraging Digital Disbursements from Fiserv, FlexWage is now able to
reach more people with more options to receive their pay. FlexWage
utilizes Digital Disbursements to enable money to move in real time to a
checking or savings account via a direct push to the debit card the
individual uses to access their checking account.

“As the gig economy grows and consumer expectations for speed, ease and
convenience increase, there is significant demand for real-time access
to earnings,” said Tom Allanson, president, Electronic Payments, Fiserv.
“FlexWage continues to be ahead of the curve in helping people maintain
control of their finances by providing them access to their money when
they need it.”

FlexWage pioneered OnDemand Pay in 2010, and has a focus on financial
empowerment, offering financial benefits like budgeting, planning, and
live advice. With FlexWage, workers can access pay they have already
earned, and employers are able to place limits on the number of times
pay can be accessed to help promote responsible use.

In order to access their earnings, workers log into the FlexWage app and
move available funds to their FlexWage pay card or to their checking
account. FlexWage is used by workers across a wide variety of income
levels and industries.

In a world moving faster than ever before, Fiserv helps clients deliver
solutions in step with the way people live and work today – financial
services at the speed of life. Learn more at fiserv.com.
