International Money Express, a leading money remittance provider to Latin America and the Caribbean, announced the expansion of its Payroll Card Program in partnership with Central Payments. The program enables U.S. employers to digitize payroll disbursement at no additional cost to employers, eliminating the burden of issuing paper checks or handling cash. Employees gain fast, secure access to their wages and the digital economy.
“Employers carry a huge operational burden when running payroll with cash and checks. At Intermex, we can eliminate this in just days by digitizing the disbursement process at no cost for employers or employees,” said Marcelo Theodoro, Chief Digital, Product and Marketing Officer for Intermex. “Employees paid by check are often excluded from the digital economy and may incur significant fees to cash their wages. Adopting the Intermex Payroll Program provides an economic opportunity and a new level of care for employees.”
As part of this initiative, Intermex and Central Payments also launched a new feature that allows Intermex Payroll cardholders to send international wires with no transfer fee directly from the Intermex mobile app and web platform.

“Together with Intermex, we’re bridging payroll, payments, and remittances into one seamless digital experience. This partnership empowers employees and their families by reducing costs and expanding access to financial tools they can trust,” said Eric Cotton, Central Payments President and Chief Payments Officer.
The no-fee wire feature underscores how payroll and digital remittance solutions can save families money, reduce reliance on costly check-cashing services, and expand access to financial tools anytime, anywhere.
