ADP has acquired Global Cash Card, a pioneer in payroll and contract employee payments. The deal gives ADP a proprietary payments processing platform that, it says, provides value-added services for existing clients and will speed time to market for new clients.
The New York Department of Labor has fired the latest salvo in the battle over the use of payroll cards in the state. The agency has filed an appeal that could jeopardize the outcome of a petition granted to Global Cash Card to revoke the N.Y. DOL payroll card regulations, which were due to go into effect March 7, 2017. At stake are rules that are considered so burdensome by the prepaid industry that—if restored—could force some payroll card providers out of New York.
