Express Wages was featured in This Is Memphis (June 16, 2026) as a Memphis-based fintech startup helping workers break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. Founded by Alfred Milan, who also leads a local healthcare provider, the company grew out of a real need: his employees kept asking for access to wages they’d already earned.

Express Wages lets workers get paid as soon as they finish their work instead of waiting for the end of a pay cycle, giving them flexibility to handle unexpected bills and emergencies.

The article highlights the company as an example of homegrown Memphis innovation with national potential.
