Remember that wonderful scene in “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory”? The original, from 1971, with Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka? When he lets the golden ticket winners into his magical candy room, he sings “Pure Imagination”?

There is no life I know

To compare with pure imagination

Living there you’ll be free

If you truly wish to be.

If you would like to enter that world of pure imagination, you can. The first step takes about 60 seconds. 

Ready? Here we go.

Go to the Apple App store or Google Play store.

Download the Payactiv app.

Enroll. Go ahead. Right now. It’s free.  

Have you done it? If not, stop reading and do it or the rest of the article won’t make sense! 

Do you already have the app? Great. Stick around.

You now have Earned Wage Access. Take a look at the wages that are now available for you to access. This is your money. If you deposit your paycheck onto our payroll card, you can access your wages, right now, for free. 

If you don’t have our payroll card, you can access your wages right now for just $1. You’ll have unlimited access all day for just that dollar. You can access those wages every day for just $1 each day, but you’ll never pay more than $5 per pay period.

So if you plan out when you’d like to access wages, you could spend as little as $1 per pay period.

Now….IMAGINE.

What bills can you pay? What debt can be paid down?What will you be able to save each month in payday loan fees? Overdrafts? Late fees?

As you start plugging those leaks in your financial life, you may find you have a little more money each month.

Imagine what you can do with it.  Will you save it?  Spend it on something important or just plain fun for you or someone you care about?  A little of both?  As you imagine what you can do with the freedom that wage access provides, you will start to imagine things you haven’t even considered before.   That’s what freedom does.  It inspires.  It opens doors to your imagination.   The better you feel about your financial life, the less stress you have, and the mental blocks to your imagination will vanish.

Doesn’t it feel good to imagine? Doesn’t it feel good to be free in your imagination?

This is what we want Earned Wage Access to accomplish. We want every user to escape financial stress and uncertainly and create room for dreams. We want every user to to live the life they earn.

The trick is to remember Wonka’s last line in that verse: “if you wish to be”.

Before Payactiv, living in imagination was a challenge because of all the obstacles. Payactiv now gives you the tool that permits it. All that remains is for you to choose to imagine – “if you wish to be”.

Remember how the movie ends? Wonka gives Charlie the factory. Charlie’s dreams come true. 

WONKA: Charlie . . . don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted.

CHARLIE: What happened?

WONKA: He lived happily ever after.
