Promoting goodwill with a flexible pay card that saves time and money

Celebrating 100 years of serving the underserved and providing pathways out of poverty for those in need, Goodwill Industries of Kentucky is on a mission to offer free, life-enhancing programs and services to those most in need.

Kim Satterly is the Payroll Operations and Tax Compliance Manager at Goodwill Industries of Kentucky. She and her team of three payroll specialists and one payroll administrative assistant handle payroll and time and attendance for 1,800 employees in 12 payroll groups throughout 67 stores and five regional offices in Kentucky.

We are saving money on card delivery because the Wisely cards are available in each location to hand out to new hires when they onboard. With our former card provider, we shipped out an average of 20 cards a day via FedEx at $30 each. That’s $3,000 a week or $156,000 a year that we are saving by having ADP mail cards to each location as their supplies get low.

Challenges

  • The pay card program that Goodwill Industries was using was being discontinued. The program involved a lot of work to administer and was costly to maintain. Any new pay card program they adopted would have to be less labor-intensive for their staff and more cost-effective for their organization.

How ADP Helped

  • Wisely has allowed the payroll team to save almost 20 hours a week in pay card administration and has saved $3,000 per week due to not having to mail out cards to new employees.
