Case Study: Sterling Group achieves instant, reliable weekly payments to thousands of contractors with AccessPay

Organising thousands of weekly contractor payments with AccessPay

Sterling Group, a market leader in contractor services, needed a reliable way to organise thousands of weekly contractor payments amid a constantly changing workforce. They turned to AccessPay for a payments and collections solution that could replace time-consuming, risky manual online banking and card‑reader processes and deliver faster, same‑day payouts.

AccessPay implemented a faster payments capability that lets Sterling Group upload multiple, almost‑instant same‑day payment batches, removing manual intervention and reducing payment delays. As a result, Sterling Group now sends up to 4,000 faster payments each week in multiple batches, contractors are paid promptly (no more hours‑long waits), and the business has improved its reputation and client offering. AccessPay’s solution also eliminated the need for card readers and streamlined Sterling’s operational processes.
