Employers

The Employer/Employee Wallet API enables employers to load their wallets with the cumulative payroll for all employees, allowing seamless disbursements directly from the platform.

Employers can process payments, manage receivables, reconcile accounts, and handle transactions efficiently through the wallet. For employees, it offers a programmable salary wallet, allowing them to receive payments from their employer via the payroll provider with ease.

Employees can withdraw their salary to any bank account of their choice and can get a zero-interest overdraft, provided it is paid back within twenty days. Additionally, we expose APIs for service providers to debit employees directly as their salaries are dropping.
