Government Disbursements

Berkeley Payment Solutions can provide government departments with a highly-customized, secure and fully-integrated payment platform for managing government disbursements. We develop and manage programs on behalf of our clients, as well as provide monthly reports to identify cost savings and continue to improve efficiencies.

The process works as follows:

After enrolling with local agency, recipients are mailed a Visa Government Disbursement card embossed with their name. No credit checks are required.
Each pay period, the benefit funds for the enrolled recipients are automatically deposited into their individual card account. Recipients can use the card anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted, including ATM withdrawals.
All transactions are documented on a monthly account statement and can be received either electronically or in print.
