Kensington Hill Capital LLC, a Jimmy John’s franchisee, has partnered with DailyPay to provide access to on-demand pay to its Jimmy John’s employees.

The benefit allows employees to pay bills on time, cover emergency expenses, and have more control over their finances.

“I’m always looking for ways to enhance our employee benefits, to make people’s lives easier,” said Brandon Stewart, Kensington Hill Capital’s president and COO. “I also have a very deep understanding, being in this industry, of what they go through — especially our part-time employees. The decision to add this benefit was a no-brainer.”
Kensington Hill Capital will leverage DailyPay to hire employees faster and retain them for longer. Companies who use DailyPay reduce turnover by an average of 62%, helping employers save on turnover costs and invest in their employees. At this time, 45% of Kensington Hill Capital’s employees are currently using DailyPay.
“QSRs are eager to support their hourly employees and we’re thrilled to be part of the equation. It’s so essential that we encourage financial wellness — we love to see partners like Kensington Hill Capital move the needle,” said Jeanniey Walden, Chief Innovation and Marketing Officer at DailyPay. “Employees are more engaged at the workplace and willing to stay longer when they don’t need to worry about paying Wednesday’s electricity bill when payday hits on Friday — with DailyPay, they can access their earned wages instantly — that’s financial freedom.”
