Financial Wellness

Support your team between paydays

An unexpected expense shouldn't mean a payday loan. OnTap lets employees request an advance against wages they've already earned, with your policy limits and approval rules enforced automatically — and repayment deducted cleanly at the next payroll run.

  • Employees request advances directly from the self-service portal
  • Configurable eligibility rules, advance limits, and approval workflows
  • Repayment automatically deducted from the employee's next payroll run
  • Full visibility for HR and finance into outstanding advances at any time

Built Into Payroll

No side ledger, no manual tracking

Salary advances live inside the same payroll engine that runs your regular pay cycle — so outstanding balances, repayments, and reporting are always in sync with the numbers your finance team already trusts.

  • Policy-Based Limits

    Cap advances as a percentage of earned wages automatically.

  • Repayment Tracking

    See every outstanding advance and its repayment schedule.

  • Manager Approvals

    Require sign-off before any advance is disbursed.

  • Finance Visibility

    Outstanding advances reconcile directly with payroll reports.

How It Works

From request to repayment, automatically

  1. 1

    Employee requests an advance

    Submitted from the self-service portal or mobile app, within policy limits.

  2. 2

    Manager or HR approves

    Requests route through your configured approval workflow.

  3. 3

    Repayment happens automatically

    The advance is deducted from the employee's next payroll run — no manual entry required.
