The Challenges of Global Crew Payroll Distribution

 

 

 

 

 

Making global shipping crew payments can be tough

 

In the shipping industry, large shipping companies often need to:

 

  • Deal with high payment costs for their organization & crew members
  • Mitigate security risks of carrying cash on ships for expenses
  • Juggle different payment systems and file formats
  • Add lots of extra staff to administrate & keep it all running smoothly

 

 

For many shipping companies, these issues can add up to additional costs, time, administrative overhead and a host of payment-related challenges which can become overwhelmingly difficult to manage on a global scale.

 

 

The hyperWALLET Solution

Imagine you have access to a global shipping crew payment service branded as your own, that provides significant cost and time savings for both the shipping company and their staff.

It's easily administered and it puts the responsibility on your crew members to manage how they want to receive their funds, at their convenience.

 

 

Convenient crew-controlled payout options

 

Shipping companies can leverage hyperWALLET's platform to offer crew members multiple payment options. A crew member can have their payroll:

  • Deposited to a family bank account
  • Loaded onto a prepaid card
  • Sent for pickup in cash at over 400,000 Western Union locations.

 

 

 

Payments flexibility for your shipping company & crew
