History

Telpay was founded in 1985 as a research-and-development division of Comcheq Services, a payroll company started by Bill Loewen in 1968.[3][4] In March 1985, the first reports of telephone-generated bill payments were delivered to Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba Telephone System.[3]

In 1992, Loewen sold Comcheq to CIBC, but retained control of the Telpay division, thereby establishing Telpay Incorporated, with Loewen as chair.[3]

Organization

Telpay headquarters is located in downtown Winnipeg, in a heritage building built in 1909 by the Canada Permanent Trust Company.[4] The current President is Kevin Sokolowski.[5]
