Payactiv makes access work—for people, for business, for growth. As the creator of Earned Wage Access, we work within payroll to provide responsible access to earned wages, proving that when people move forward, companies do too. Retention improves, staffing becomes more reliable, engagement rises, and teams contribute with greater consistency and commitment. In 2012, Payactiv introduced a simple but transformative idea: No one should wait to use what they’ve already earned. Employees should be able to access their earned wages—responsibly and securely—without interest, or disruption to payroll. This model bridges the gap between hours worked and pay received, helping employees avoid late fees, overdrafts, and payday loans that erode financial stability. But Payactiv goes beyond EWA. The platform is designed as a comprehensive financial growth infrastructure, offering a suite of tools that help employees manage, save, and plan for their future. For employers, it delivers measurable outcomes through real-time data, adoption insights, and ROI reporting, all within a compliant, payroll-aligned framework. More than 40,000 employers and 5 million employees across healthcare, retail, manufacturing, logistics, and hospitality trust Payactiv to drive measurable business and human outcomes. Core capabilities include: ✔︎ Earned Wage Access: Employees can access wages they’ve already earned—on demand, with no payday loans or credit checks. ✔︎ Financial growth tools: Built-in savings, bill pay, budgeting, built-in deals & offers, and goal-tracking features to build long-term financial health. ✔︎ Financial education and counseling: In-app learning resources and access to 1:1 financial counseling to support informed decisions and long-term financial confidence. ✔︎ Pay solutions: Payroll cards, digital tip and mileage disbursement, and off-cycle pay options that ensure every form of earned value is available when needed. ✔︎ Employer insights: Dashboards and reporting that measure engagement, retention, and ROI over time. ✔︎ Responsible design and compliance: SOC 2, PCI, and ISO certified, compliant in all 50 states, and built in partnership with regulators. ✔︎ Employee and employer support: Dedicated onboarding, optimization, and 24/7 customer care to ensure lasting adoption and success. Because when people have the means to move ahead, they bring their best to work—and workplaces built on that momentum grow stronger from the inside out, gaining the stability, loyalty, and performance that make growth mutual.
