The comprehensive PaySign prepaid solution includes the “PaySign Connect,” an intuitive, easy-to-use, fully tokenized platform tailored to the unique requirements of the plasma collection industry. The PaySign Connect portal can run as either a standalone, web-based solution or can be fully integrated with existing donor management systems. The PaySign Connect portal securely stores donor information and donation history, including volume range, weight group, donor type, donation frequency, notes, and other pertinent fields. 3PEA’s customized reports simplify accounting procedures, reduce administrative costs, streamline operations, increase efficiency, and help maintain compliance requirements. Adding a dimension far beyond simple financial accounting and funds reconciliation, the PaySign solution provides a level of business analytics previously unavailable from existing payment card programs.

The PaySign prepaid solution also includes the PaySign Visa® Prepaid Card that can be used anywhere Visa is accepted. Plasma donors can access their account information using the PaySign kiosk located at any B Positive donation center, a dedicated cardholder website, an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system, SMS alerts, two-way SMS, or by calling 3PEA’s in-house bilingual customer service center, staffed 24/7/365. The customized PaySign prepaid solution was built with the goals of improving donor retention rates and overall donor satisfaction.

“We are pleased that PaySign has been chosen by B Positive as their exclusive donor payment solution,” said Mark Newcomer, Chairman and CEO of 3PEA. “As we expand our presence in the Plasma donation industry, we remain committed to providing our customers the highest quality payment solutions available.”

“The PaySign solution delivers the features B Positive requires in a prepaid donor payment solution,” explained Benjamin S. Ruder, Chief Executive Officer of B Positive National Blood Services. “3PEA has earned an excellent reputation and we look forward to implementing the PaySign solution.”
