Prepaid Benefits Cards Are Here


From the Wall Street Journal
Must we hear it from the US first?

Seems like it might start in Toronto. 

Where do you think it will end, with the merger of ODSP and OW?

This is yet another major recognition for SelectCore's successful implementation of the City Services Benefits Card for the delivery of Ontario Works Social Assistance.

The Canadian market alone is expected to reach $19 billion by 2017. The Company continues to secure new contracts and pursue large program opportunities in both the corporate and public sectors. We anticipate being able to share details of these programs as they become available for public disclosure.

It will start at Ontario Works (OW) and then move to the Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP)

The provincial Liberals certainly kept this one under the radar didn’t they.
