PrimePay is a VetFran supplier member, and their increased support from the Bronze Tier to the Gold Tier represents an additional investment of $10,000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was thrilled to hear that another one of our amazing sponsors decided to increase their support for the VetFran program and therefore their support for veterans around the country. PrimePay\u2019s decision to increase its funding speaks to the success and growth of VetFran, and the ever-broadening coalition of companies that share our mission,\u201d said Jeff Bevis, CFE, Chair of VetFran Committee.<\/p>\n<p>PrimePay is a leading provider of payroll, tax, and HR solutions serving small businesses nationwide. Dedicated to supporting military veteran business owners, PrimePay launched their Veterans in Business (VIB) initiative to support and give back to the community. Through philanthropic activities, providing education, and a special product offering, the program is aimed to help veterans succeed at their highest potential.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecoming a Gold Sponsor for VetFran was an easy decision,\u201d explained PrimePay CEO Bill Pellicano, \u201cThe vision for our VIB initiative directly aligns with the VetFran\u2019s mission to be a leading resource for veterans and their families in the franchising industry. We\u2019re thrilled to become more involved and are excited for the opportunity to connect with more veteran business owners to help them succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Monty Heath, PrimePay\u2019s Director of Veterans in Business and U.S. Navy SEAL, represents PrimePay on the VetFran committee. Monty helps to steer the strategic direction and growth of the program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to working with more veterans and helping them to achieve their business goals,\u201d said Monty. \u201cFranchising is a great solution for veterans. I can\u2019t wait to meet veteran franchisors and franchisees at the IFA conference this February,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Monty, an 11-year veteran of the U.S. Navy SEALs, also serves as the Director of Military Programs for Higher Ground and is Executive Director of the nonprofit VetToCEO.<\/p>\n<p>Monty will be at the International Franchise Association\u2019s Annual Convention, with two other U.S. Navy SEALS. Stop by booth 243 to say hello and see Monty on stage with Carly Fiorina.<\/p>\n<div class=\"about-right\">\n<h3>About\u00a0<strong>PrimePay<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"about-left\">\n<p>Founded in 1986, PrimePay<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0is a leading national human capital management (HCM) technology and services provider to businesses ranging from 1 \u2013 5,000 employees.<\/p>\n<p>PrimePay delivers highly configurable cloud-based software and services enabling clients to hire and retain great talent, manage and pay their workforce, and optimize their business in an everchanging compliance landscape.<\/p>\n<h3>PRESS CONTACT<\/h3>\n<p>press@primepay.com\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1627,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":""},"class_list":["post-1626","news-press","type-news-press","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-press\/1626","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-press"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news-press"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primepay.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1626"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
