Solve financial stress. Improve your business at the same time.

of Australian workers aged 35–44 report financial stress as a major concern.
50%
say financial stress impacts their wellbeing and performance at work.
Most of these workers aren’t underpaid. They just can’t access wages they’ve already earned before bills, car repairs and rent are due.
What is Earned Wage Access?
Earned Wage Access (EWA) lets your employees access a portion of wages they’ve already earned, before payday. It’s not a loan, a pay advance, or a payday loan.
Paytime funds the access, so there’s no impact on your cash flow or payroll process.

Financial Stress Is Now a Workplace Risk, Not Just a Personal Issue
Psychosocial safety frameworks now require organisations to identify and mitigate risks to employee psychological health and wellbeing. Employees are not underpaid. It’s the fact that expenses do not wait for payday.
Financial stress is one of the largest contributors to:
Absenteeism + Lower Productivity
Workplace distraction and fatigue
Disengagement + Higher Staff Turnover
Ignoring financial stress in the workplace is no longer a neutral decision. It is an unmanaged risk.
