Activating a Paycard for Employees

Paycards allow clients to pay their employees electronically through a paycard. There is no check or direct deposit that the employees have to wait for.

They are immediately and instantly paid through the RealStaff system and they can get a notification that funds have been received on their paycard.

1. From the RealStaff main menu, click on
   Emp/Hrs/PR >> Employee Maintenance

2. Select the employee and click the Change button.

3. Check to make sure the following information is entered correctly.
   • Mailing address (No P.O.Boxes are allowed)
   • Birthdate
   • Phone Number

4. On the Ded/PayAccts tab, select Pay Card from the Pay Type dropdown.

5. Enter the Paycard Account Number (last eight numbers) in the entry box.

Note: The Paycard Account Number is located on the paper the actual paycard is attached to. (See image of sample paycard & paper below)

6. Click Ok.

7. Check all of the information again, then click Activate the card button. This will update the personal information.

8. To double-check that the card has been activated, click on the Ded/Acct tab. At the bottom of the window, it will show that the card is active, who activated the card, and the date/time the card was activated.

Complete!
