Tammy Lloyd began her business Tammy Lloyd Bookkeeping in June 2013 after deciding she wanted to work closer to home. She provides bookkeeping and year-end pre-audit preparation for businesses and non-profit organizations.

Before using Telpay, her clients struggled to get vendor payments in on time. She would sign up non-profit clients who needed to make arrangements with signing authorities to sign cheques.

“Volunteer board members would need to take time out of their already busy schedules to physically stop by the office and sign cheques.”

Another one of her client’s office structure had changed with some of the office team working remotely. Having two people in the office at the same time to get signatures was completely inconvenient.

One of the questions that may come up with businesses you speak to is – “What are the cost savings when you eliminate cheques from your business payments?”

For your convenience, we have a simple Savings Calculator to show your clients just how much they can save.

Using this calculator will help give a perspective not only of the overall payment process but how many pieces go into each cheque sent out in the mail.

The Savings Calculator considers elements such as postage and the cost for cheques, but then comes other factors such as bank fees and forms, along with intangibles such as assembly and the actual mailing. Quickly, you will see how the cost of continuing with cheque payments adds up.

We also take into consideration another aspect – time. If businesses are writing cheques or balancing books with a ledger and chequebook, they spend more time than needed to keep records up to date.

This time, particularly for emerging business owners, can better be spent planning and growing their company. For those who have led or been part of a company for a longer period, well, it goes without saying just how much more time is needed in a day.

Bearing in mind these factors, you can easily show what payments through Telpay’s processing system can do for their business. Whether it’s a regularly-scheduled amount that goes to a supplier or a one-off, they will save time and money thanks to Telpay for Business payment software.

The signs of summer are all around us. Street vendors are out, signs for festivals are going up around the city, and the smell of barbeques are permeating everywhere.

Yes, summer is a relaxing time of year, but just because you’re taking a couple of weeks vacation doesn’t mean that your payments are also. Amid the rush to get out to the cabin or shutting down your office early on a Friday, it’s easy to forget to make a payment.

The good news is that with Telpay, you can authorize payments from anywhere you receive email.

Yes, you read that right. Whether you’re at the farmer’s market or on your boat, if you’ve got a signal, you’ve got a payment made, thanks to Telpay’s remote authorization email capabilities.

How does it work?
The bookkeeper or accountant on your Telpay account sends an email directly from the Telpay for Business software with payment details that you as a signing officer require for approving payments.

The benefits of remote authorization include:

• Increased productivity – No need to wait for your signing officer to come back from their holidays. Your office can progress with projects that involve supplier payments.
• Financial savings – Don’t let payment deadlines lapse and incur interest cost. Take advantage of advantage of sales that your suppliers may have over the summer.
• Getting greener – Don’t worry about pre-signed cheques in the office. Keep the space clean – and green – in your office for the summer months.

To learn more about remote authorization, join us for one of our upcoming webinars. As a bonus, you’ll receive a gift card for Starbucks or Dairy Queen so you can further enjoy summer with a special treat, courtesy of Telpay.

“The Telpay webinars were very informative. I learned how to enter new Biller information, including information to pay Provincial and Federal taxes. I also learned how to provide the Biller with invoice numbers and other information. There was also lots of useful information on USD Payments, as well. I enjoyed the webinars and will use the information in my daily transactions”.
