Businesses - We Want You!

When it comes to paying out employees and publishers, many companies use a variety of options such as wire, check, direct deposit, etc. All these choices need to be managed and maintained and ultimately used for payments.

What if you could use just ONE payment service and have every single one of your global employees and publishers paid INSTANTLY, and still able to withdraw their funds how THEY prefer, leaving you with just one mass payment to make each pay period?

Welcome to Paxum!

Paxum can help you streamline your payments, and fast! Getting setup with a business account is easy and free and only takes about 5 minutes of your time.

Once you offer payments through Paxum, your employees and publishers will have various options for withdrawal when the funds are delivered to their Paxum account; wire, check, ACH, to a previously existing credit/debit card, or to their Paxum Credit Card. This enables your employees and publishers to STILL receive their funds THEIR way while saving your company money!

We'd be more than happy to walk you through the signup or answer any questions you might have about getting setup with a Paxum ewallet business account. Don't hesitate to contact us and let us show you how we can save YOU money!
