Q: Could you provide our readers with a brief introduction to DailyPay?

A: In 2015, I realized there was a big problem for anyone who received a paycheck. Payroll technology was controlling how families live and pay their bills, instead of the workers determining how and when they access the money they worked so hard to make. There had to be a better way. Despite living in an era of incredible technological advances, I realized there was still this profound need for working Americans to have access to their earned pay that would give them financial flexibility and empowerment over their money. So I took an in-depth look at how people were paid in this country. I saw an opportunity for change — and DailyPay was born. My first thought was to build completely from the ground up, to truly start from scratch.

By creating DailyPay, that’s exactly what we did. In 2016, we designed an unrivaled ecosystem (we call PayExTM) featuring a unique “pay experience” that benefits the employee and the employer. DailyPay offers employees choice and control over when and how they receive their earned pay. Unlike other providers, we support every aspect of the employee’s pay experience from payroll processing to pay access and even call center support. Our ecosystem unlocks the abilities for employers and employees to enjoy control and choice over their earned income.

In just a few years DailyPay was recognized as the gold standard in the industry with over 80% of Fortune 100 companies that offer an on-demand pay benefit using DailyPay as their provider.

• PAY: Employees can control how and when they get paid with instant access to earned income, transparent fees and 24/7/365 access to 100% of their earned income
• SAVE: Employees can save their pay in three different ways — scheduled automatically, based on pay period earnings and/or at the time of an instant pay transfer
• REWARD: Employers can reward their employees in an on-the-spot, compliant way (i.e., for taking on an extra shift when a coworker calls out)
• CYCLE: Employers can easily and immediately process off-cycle payments (ex. missed shifts/termination pay)

The secret behind our success with PayEx is the finely thought out methodology in terms of both our product and the entire customer journey, from start to finish. We are a full service on-demand pay provider – a major differentiator with other providers. We take pride in delivering the “gold standard” of service to our partners and is the reason we are the top choice for Fortune 500 companies.
