With Visa+, Payactiv is expanding how people access their money – without the need to share debit card or bank account information.

Just fast, seamless access to wages when it matters most.

"Financial security is the foundation for meaningful growth, both at work and in life," said Safwan Shah, founder and CEO of Payactiv. "Our integration with Visa+ empowers employees to access their money on their terms, enhancing financial control and freedom."

Why It Matters:

• Flexible, Convenient Access to Pay: Transfer earned wages to one's own Venmo or PayPal account in real-time¹.
• Simple and Secure: Without the need to share debit card or bank account information.

"Our workforce values flexibility and convenience, and with Payactiv's Visa+ integration, our employees now have real-time¹ access to their earned wages through familiar platforms like Venmo and PayPal. This empowers them to manage their finances on their terms, which ultimately boosts employee satisfaction and retention," said Steve Boyd, Senior Director HRIS at American Senior Communities.

Visa+: Simplified and Real-time¹ Payouts to Digital Wallets

Visa+ offers a streamlined method for directing funds disbursements to participating digital wallets in real-time¹. US-based users can create aliases in their digital wallets and transfer their wages to their designated digital wallet accounts.
