Payroll
Simplified Salary Disbursements for Employers
GBTI facilitates the processing of salaries for employees on behalf of their employer. This service is especially beneficial for companies with large numbers of employees. To facilitate the processing of salaries, the employer is required to submit a cheque and/or a letter requesting that their account is debited and a list of employee’s accounts to be credited. For additional details, contact our Deposit Accounts Department at any of our branches.
GO Banking File Upload:
High-Volume Payments, Simplified
What is File Upload?
The File Upload feature on GO Banking, also referred to as Salary Upload, allows corporate customers of GBTI to quickly and securely credit multiple GBTI accounts in a single transaction.
