Your Accounting Software and Our Payment Solution

One of the most interesting aspects of human nature is that very few of us are truly open to change. We establish our routines; we settle in a particular neighbourhood, and for the most part, we keep these consistent for much of our lives. This is particularly the case in our professional surroundings.

A hockey player, for example, will remain loyal to a brand of equipment for familiarity and comfort, a chef will swear by a particular knife maker whether they are cutting meat or vegetables, and an office worker will remain steadfastly loyal to Windows-based or Mac computers.

Plan Ahead for the Festive Winter Holidays

The holidays are almost here, and we want to help ensure you have a problem-free festive season. After all, this season is for appreciating and reuniting with loved ones, not worrying about payment deadlines. It’s especially not the time to be muddled by many holidays interfering with your payment schedule.

Avoid any last-minute stress by planning your payroll and payable payments in advance. This is a perfect opportunity to remind you that Telpay will be closed on December 26 and 27, and as such will not be processing payments or accepting funding for payroll and/or payables. We have our handy Holiday Funding Schedule for you, complete with
required lead times for both payroll and payables.

We also want to thank you for your continued support and look forward to working with you again in the new year. As our gift to you, we have put together a holiday playlist, comprised of the Top 10 festive songs as selected by our staff. (Feel free to use this at your holiday party – we don’t mind!)

Why go to a traditional store, when you can buy the perfect item online. What about your bill payments? How does “Next Business day, Bill pay,” sound to you?

Payables funding options are really important because this is how Telpay receives money from your business to process your payables payments. There are two available funding options. You can choose to send money to Telpay via online banking which has a one-day lead time or request Telpay to automatically withdraw the money from your bank account through Pre-Authorized Debit which requires a four-day lead time.
