David Eason and Jonathon Hamburg Berkeley Payment Solutions Inc.
David Eason and Jonathon Hamburg are co-owners of Berkeley Payment Solutions, which has enjoyed 300% year over year growth since 2005. The company is the largest issuer of corporate prepaid VISA cards in Canada, with some of North America’s largest companies as clients, like Bell, Nissan and LG Electronics.
“Companies purchase the branded prepaid cards for internal incentive rewards or gifts for employees, customers and channel partners,” says Hamburg. “The cards provide added value and people love their versatility to buy things like shoes, groceries and gas, any time.”
One of Berkeley’s clients is a manufacturing company that replaced a warehouse full of logo’d merchandise with the prepaid cards. “The company should be making widgets!” says Hamburg. “We help our clients focus on what they do best, and we take care of the incentives. That’s what WE do best.”
