Q: Why is ACE paying shoppers through PayQuicker instead of PayPal or issuing their own paper checks and direct deposit?

Since shoppers and staff are Independent Contractors, ACE is responsible for collecting SS#’s and filing 1099’s for all contractors’ earning over $599.00 in a calendar year.ACE's software is secure; however, PayQuicker uses their bank, University National Bank, to collect this sensitive personal info through their banks stronger encrypted online site. That is more protection than we can offer through our software! ACE's  contracting staff, their IT staff, or any third party vendors ACE  may use for their business will not have any access to PayQuicker’s bank encrypted customer’s personal information. Independent Contracting Laws are becoming stricter and it is mandatory for us to abide by the federal guidelines. We prefer to have a trusted, FDIC insured, bank collect and store this sensitive information.

Using PayQuicker for payment eliminates this fraud.
