Automated Payment Solution Reduces Overhead and Lowers
Expenses
VSP Global is leading the way in improving the employee
experience for remote workers while reducing costs and increasing
efficiency. To simplify payments for broadband services for “work
from home” employees, VSP Global has partnered with Cass
Information Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CASS), a global provider of
integrated information and payment management solutions to launch
its Bring Your Own Network (BYON) program.
Leveraging Cass’s patented Direct2Carrier Payments™
solution, BYON enables eligible employees to sign up for broadband
subsidies to be paid directly to their home internet service
provider each month, automatically. Registration is a simple,
one-time event through a user-friendly portal. VSP Global will make
one monthly payment that Cass will manage and pay to every Internet
Service Provider for registered users. A credit will show up on the
employee’s personal account without the cost or burden of
processing expense reports or payroll stipends.
“With a largely distributed workforce due to the pandemic,
including our customer service teams, home internet access is
critical for employees to continue serving our members, doctors and
clients, and conduct business effectively,” said VSP Global Senior
Vice President and Chief Technology Officer Dan Fowler.
“We’re able to support these workforce needs thanks to an
innovative offering from Cass, which relieves administrative
overhead and provides a seamless and secure administration process
for broadband subsidies.”
“We’re excited to be working with VSP Global on this
initiative,” said Gary Langfitt, president of Cass Expense
Management Services. “As remote working is swiftly becoming the
standard for many enterprises, BYON enables business units such as
HR, IT, and Accounts Payable to adapt to the trend easily and
efficiently.”
