Payroll Cards
Payroll cards are provided by employers and allow employees to access the money from paychecks using cards that look like bank debit cards. Payroll cards can be more convenient than using check cashiers, because they can be used to withdraw cash from ATMs and be used to buy things. However, some payroll cards charge more fees than others.
