How to start direct deposit?

Hi all, 

I search the forums for something recent and relevant.  I have a company of about 12 employees with roughly 3 new ones starting up.  Currently I have the payroll solutions but not direct deposit.  I had write all the cheques which poses a problem as half my staff are scattered across the country or traveling.   I would like to set up a driect deposit option but the more I go into it the more misinformation I find.  

Is it as easy as getting the direct deposit add-on? Or do I need another add-on like I have read about like EFT or Beanstream (This one I could not find anything on but found something called Bambora?) Do I need a program like this? Or is it better just to switch and go completely to Payworks?

    Since you have the payroll support from Sage, all you need is an EFT upgrade from Sage. Depending upon the number of employees you have Sage will charge extra (in your case approx.$311.00 per year). Next you would want to check with your bank to see what they would charge for direct deposit and if there are any setups the bank has to do to accommodate your direct deposit for Payroll. A bonus with the EFT from Sage is you can also setup your vendors and customers for EFT payments as well.

    If this sounds too complicated there are other solutions available.

    Contact me off forum for details!

    I hope this helps!
