Rita Chahal General Manager	Manitoba Chamber of Commerce	"For me the most important aspects of the Telpay system are its ease of use and customer support – the agents are gems to work with. Since I wasn’t particularly technically savvy at first, the Telpay system seemed a bit overwhelming. With assistance from Telpay’s helpful staff, once the software was installed, things worked out really well."
Dave Angus President and CEO	Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce	"The notion of Manitoba taking the lead is exactly the kind of bold step we’d like to see Manitoba companies take. We recently went electronic because we think the Telpay business model is the way of the future. If we’re going to be an advocate, we need to walk the talk. That is why we are going cheque-free here at The Chamber and see this technology being the norm down the road.”
Evelyn Jacks Founder and Owner	The Knowledge Bureau	"Telpay is robust and simple to use and it allows us to maintain accuracy and consistency. Our employees appreciate the new direct deposit payroll and I’m able to authorize payments from anywhere – much to the relief of my Administrative Manager.”
Stuart McKelvie, FCA CFO	Celco Controls	"I began using Telpay’s e-payment software several years ago with my former company. When I joined Celco Controls Ltd., our accounts payable process resembled that of many businesses; very manual and payments were made primarily by cheque. After implementing Telpay for Business we were able to virtually eliminate all cheque payments and related manual processes. By switching from cheques to Telpay, we not only saved money, our biggest benefit was the time savings and convenience brought about by automating our payables. I estimate that Telpay has helped to reduce our payables workload by 20-30% and we are no longer required to print, sign, assemble, or reconcile cheques. I recommend Telpay e-payment solutions for any business."
Lori Cassetta Financial Administration	Eddi's Wholesale Garden Supplies Ltd.	"I was recommended Telpay by our software support team. They sold the service telling me I would save a lot of time and hassles from our 'old' system of writing cheques, mailing them and then the time consuming job of reconciling them. They were right! I can't tell you how much more efficient our payables is using Telpay! They have a wonderful staff that follows up on the very infrequent issues that can occur, usually because of banking information errors supplied to them. Telpay also advises software programmers of improvements that can be made to their software so that when subsequent upgrades were implemented the system became even more seamless. I can honestly say if you have people to pay, Telpay can make your both your job the recipients easier. The recipient will be thrilled with the system having received the funds sooner and without the extra step of taking a cheque to the bank. I believe it is the future of moving money."
Ms. Kelly Cust AVP, Information Services	Canadian Western Bank	"My experiences have been very positive from both a development and a support perspective. Telpay fosters a team environment - there's good communication between their "players" and the customer. They have a genuine concern for the customer. Their people, knowledge and hands-on approach are very good and working with them has been a positive experience. Their system is very stable and when there is a problem they make it right."
Joe Horvat IT & Marketing Manager	Slovenia Credit Union	"We have been very pleased with how well the project has progressed and integration between the Telpay and O'Dea systems, and are looking forward to a successful launch of this new service for our members."
Pam MacCormack Financial Administration Office	EDCU	"We chose Telpay for both our Internet banking and payments, as they were able to provide the best product for the best price. They specialize in e-payments; have developed systems that ensure accurate data input by the user; have an established vendor list over 2,500 billers; and continue to expand their products. Their level of technology and ability to provide reliable service is superior. We also like how they keep their customers up-to-date of ongoing projects through regular communication."
Colin Giesbrecht Owner	The UPS Store Franchise	"When I purchased my second The UPS Store, I needed a solution that would allow me to reduce the time and cost of processing bill payments. I now use Telpay for all my payments including payroll; saving me both time and money."

Dave D'eon Owner	A & W Franchise	Paying all of my vendors and employees electronically is a great way to streamline business payments. It saves me time each month as I no longer need to print/sign cheques or assemble and mail envelopes. What’s more, I save money now that I don’t have to buy cheque stock, envelopes, or stamps and I save on bank charges. I definitely recommend Telpay to any business owner seeking to improve their bottom line.”
Eric Thys Owner/Operator	McDonald's Franchise	"We use Telpay for Business to pay our expenses electronically. It streamlines our business, saving us time and money. I would definitely recommend it."
Lindsay Bridge Owner/Operator	McDonald's Franchise	"Telpay is a service used by too few operators to significantly expedite back-office payment processing, "green" their operations, and reduce costs. It is an outstanding service more operators should be aware of - I am a HUGE proponent of their services!"
Kerry Saari Owner	Canadian Tire Franchise	"We use Telpay for Business to pay our employees electronically. We have been using Telpay to pay our business expenses since 2007, and appreciate the many benefits this brings to our business. I would definitely recommend it."
Chantel Baker Owner	Canadian Tire Franchise	“Telpay for Business is fantastic. Going electronic with our payroll has saved our business time and money.”
Susan Newell Owner	Tim Horton's Franchise	I can't believe how much time telpay as saved me and my husband. It's so easy to balance the cheque book. Just one transaction as before it was 140 different cheques (three stores) For my husband and managers they don't have the phone calls to see if cheques are in and could we please cash them. Money always in their accounts on time. Very simple with helpful staff just a phone call away.
Garry Hein Owner/Operator	Speedy Auto Service Franchise	“I use Telpay for Business for my payroll direct deposits, it works great. When paying this way, suppliers usually give full discounts instead of partial discounts when paying with credit card.”
John Bergeron Owner/Operator	McDonald's Franchise	My name is John Bergeron and I'm an Owner/Operator of 6 McDonald's in the Ottawa Valley just outside Ottawa. I discovered Telpay at a Convention for all Canadian Operators in Banff in 2009. It was very easy to implement Telpay and I am very pleased with all aspects of their service. Every week I speak to a Telpay representative in Winnipeg and we complete my accounts payable or my management payroll. This takes only about 15 minutes once per week. The Telpay rep links into my Accounting Program and together we complete my payables or my management payroll. Money for payables is transferred 24 hours before payout of payables and for payroll it's 48 hours. Not only does this service allow me to conduct business anywhere in the world using high speed internet but it saves me hours in completing my bank reconciliation because I'm reconciling 2 or 3 cheques verses a hundred cheques. The cost of Telpay is better than break even with what I was doing in the past and the fact that I had to be in my office to complete the tasks was one of the main reasons I started using Telpay. I am extremely pleased with the service and when I talk to other Owner/Operators I tell them about Telpay and the opportunity they are missing.
Cathie McFarlane Controller	Assiniboine Credit Union	At Assiniboine Credit Union, we use Telpay for Business to pay our accounts payable billings through the internet. This is a fairly new development in our relationship with Telpay and it’s working very well. Today, we pay in excess of 300 billings per month this way. It makes the accounts payable process much more efficient because in our organization, we have signers on different floors and even different locations. Through a secure email system, we are able to move the work along much more easily and quickly. It didn’t take us long to realize this new system was going to save us both time and paper. Telpay has worked hard to meet our needs.
Fern Gordon	The Profit Line Inc.	"We were just discussing in our office how unusual it was to experience the type of customer service, particularly Tina’s that Telpay provides. We had to remind ourselves that this must be because it’s a Winnipeg-based company"
Barry Cousins Regional Director	Colour-Converting Canada Inc.	When we expanded our business into Canada we were looking for efficiency in our operations. At the recommendation of our Accountants, Ledgers Canada, we started using the Telpay bill payment system. After 9 months of operations in Canada, we still have not written a single cheque. We pay all of our suppliers and employees with the Telpay system. We now have an internal policy requiring all new suppliers to provide us with their banking information for payment processing. This system saves us a considerable amount of time and money.
Michael Cote	Payroll Solutions Canada	"Telpay is the greatest thing since sliced bread"
Trish Drieger	Phoenix Agritec	“An additional $600 per year in contribution to profit. This would have been charged to us in bank service charges had we not started using Telpay for Business™ I saw time savings of 30 minutes per day within the first week of using the product/service. We like it so much that we are now using it in our other two businesses.”
James A. Matthews	Superior Management	“Speed is the primary reason we are so happy with Telpay for Business™.. Reducing administrative time is highly valuable to us and the product makes a significant difference in how much time we spend dealing with our payments. There is no question that we are saving on hard costs like postage, envelopes, and chequing costs.”
Bevan Switzer	Portage Cartage & Storage	“The time I spend issuing payables has been reduced by 50%. At first I was a bit apprehensive about electronic payments but a year later I am using Telpay for Business™ to Pay 70 suppliers per month. I have no hesitation about recommending Telpay for Business™ because I have recently moved our second business over to electronic payments and am seeing similar benefits there.”
Randy Wolgemuth	Sunrize Group	I just started using Telpay for Business™. From the time I received my login information until I was able to pay my first bill was just less than 1/2 hour. The downloading of the software and set up is very easy and user friendly. I'm looking forward to saving time and money using Telpay for Business™.
Carol-Ann Kjartanson	GHY International	"Submitting electronic payments through Telpay is a fantastic way for our clients to pay us. Signing up with Telpay is so easy - and allows our customers to process payments at their convenience, while simplifying their bank reconciliation. In addition, they benefit from having a simple, convenient and secure way of paying our invoices. We as a vendor also benefit - we receive our remittances in a single consolidated format via email, which greatly simplifies our cash receipts reconciliation process. We don't have to worry about post dated cheques, missing signatures, transposed amounts, NSF returns, and all of the other challenges inherent with cheque processing. We are very pleased with Telpay's capabilities, and encourage our clients to use their services so they can realize the benefits of their payment system to support their business. It's a B2B service whose time has come - and Telpay delivers in a professional and secure manner."
Lars Glimhagen	AccSys Solutions Inc.	"I just got a call from my client who told me that they have started using Telpay and are extremely happy with the service. She also said that you guys are really great to deal with and appreciates the excellent service you provide. Thanks for making us look good."
Diana Day	ULS Maintenance & Landscaping	"I just wanted to say a big thank you for being such a great help to me yesterday. You definitely kept me calm throughout the whole process, even though I was very panic-stricken for the first few minutes after seeing all those errors in red! Your knowledge and expertise made the first payroll through Telpay a positive and successful one. I definitely appreciated every minute of your time
Brian Gilcrest Sage AccPac User	Pulse Canada	“ We are extremely happy with Telpay’s electronic payment system. Telpay has provided us with increased internal controls and decreased processing times. Using Telpay and Sage AccPac to pay our bills electronically means our vendors are happier because the money is in their bank account quicker than if we sent them a cheque. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Telpay’s electronic payment solution.”
Gerald L. Peterson, CA	Peterson Group	"Telpay for Business has streamlined our accounts payable process immensely. I personally use it to pay all our bills, and it literally takes minutes to complete."
Jim Carroll Author	Selling Online: How to become a successful e-commerce merchant in Canada	"Telpay has really thought through its position in the field of Canadian e-commerce and financial technology. They have remained faithful to their core areas of competence and maintained their leadership position for years by relentlessly improving the functionality and reliability of their technology."
Alan Salmon	Alan Salmon & Associates	"Adopting the business practice of electronic payments is inevitable for Canadian companies. It has been growing by 30% annually, and it is such a common practice in Europe that companies send out their invoices with a bank account number printed in the top right hand corner so that customers pay them electronically. This summer I was on a Singapore Airlines flight over Malaysia and I paid my business American Express bill from 40,000 feet. Telpay's technology works and it is only a matter of time before most businesses make the transition to paying electronically."
George Vukusic President & Founder	Easypay	“Easypay Payroll recommends Telpay to our customers wishing to pay their employees by direct deposit. Telpay provides excellent service at a price that is typically 50% less than what the client's bank would charge. By combining Easypay with Telpay, we provide a strong argument to bring payroll in-house, from both an economic and service perspective."
Gord Haslam President	Ledgers Canada	“Ledgers Canada has more than 35 offices across Canada, providing accounting, bookkeeping, payroll and tax services to small businesses, their owners and the general public. Not only do we use the Telpay system, we strongly recommend this system to our clients. We have proven, time and time again, the savings in time and fees are very significant, even to a small business.”
Carol-Ann Brouwer	Simply Made Simple	"Telpay is an invaluable tool for consultants to offer to their clients. It allows clients to instantly perform international business transactions. This product certainly does not disappoint in performance."
Vicky Webb	ASK Inc.	"As a Telpay user, I find the real advantage is how simple it is to use with Simply Accounting or QuickBooks. All you have to do for setup is add one clearing account to your chart of accounts. The payroll portion is the best and the easiest I’ve ever used. I personally like the idea that I can pay my bills from anywhere, I don’t have to write cheques, and Telpay notifies my vendors. For entrepreneurs who are not in the office every day, Telpay’s bank account controls provide security and confidence. If you need support …they are actually there! I am glad to recommend this company to any of my clients."
