The time and money spent on printing, mailing, reconciling and reissuing paper paychecks can add up. Going paperless eliminates the need to hand out paper checks or wait for payroll delivery

With direct deposit, employers know exactly when the funds will be withdrawn from their account, which offers more predictability for ensuring that enough funds are available for payroll, and to pay other expenses, such as rent or utilities.
