Instant Pay, Long-Term Satisfaction?

Richard Kim, CEO, Paywatch

Instant Pay, Long-Term Satisfaction?

Flexible pay access, also known as instant pay, is becoming increasingly popular as inflation creeps up and workers struggle to make ends meet. This allows employees to access a portion of their earned wages before payday, which can be a lifesaver for those who are struggling to cover unexpected expenses.

We speak with Richard Kim from Paywatch about how flexible pay access helps improve employee satisfaction and reduce turnover, as well as how it can be a valuable ESG measure for businesses.
