With more than 120 workshops, networking events, and an expansive Expo, the 44th Annual Payroll Congress will offer you endless opportunities—but navigating it efficiently takes the right tools.

To help attendees make the most of every moment, PayrollOrg provides a suite of digital and on-site resources designed to keep you informed, connected, and confident throughout the event. From planning your daily schedule to staying updated on breaking news, these tools are designed to streamline your experience so you can focus on learning, finding solutions, and making meaningful connections.

Get Instant Info With the Congress App

The official 2026 Payroll Congress app puts essential Congress information right at your fingertips. Designed with attendee convenience in mind, the app helps participants plan, navigate, and reflect on their Congress experience with ease.

One of the most anticipated enhancements is the addition of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered daily summaries, which offer personalized insights into each attendee’s schedule and session activity. The app also offers engagement metrics within each attendee’s profile.

For a closer look at the app’s features, read the Congress App preview article in Congress Today Online.

Start Each Day With Congress Today

Beyond the app, attendees can rely on Congress Today, the award-winning daily conference magazine that captures everything happening across Payroll Congress as it unfolds.

Printed editions will be available on-site Tuesday through Thursday and include daily agendas, venue maps, an Expo Resource Guide, and other essential information to help you start each day informed and prepared.

Additional conference content is available online, including breaking award announcements, daily contests and polls, videos, and real-time updates.

Attendees are encouraged to visit CongressToday.org to subscribe and stay informed throughout the week.

 

Connect on Social Media

Social media offers another way for attendees to stay connected and engaged throughout Payroll Congress. By following Payroll Congress on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, participants can access timely reminders, session highlights, and important updates in real time.

Social channels also invite attendees to take part in daily polls, contests, and conversations—adding another layer of engagement—helping to extend your Payroll Congress experience beyond the sessions.

Network in the Payroll Congress Community

Payroll Congress attendees also gain access to a dedicated private space within The Payroll Community, where payroll professionals can connect, collaborate, and combine their unique strengths just like puzzle pieces, forming a complete conference picture.

This exclusive Congress Community serves as a hub for discussion, networking, and peer-to-peer learning, allowing attendees to exchange ideas and build relationships that last well beyond Congress week.

Navigate the Resort With the Hotel App

Payroll Congress takes place at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center, part of the Marriott family of properties. To help you navigate the resort more easily, downloading the Marriot Bonvoy® App is strongly encouraged.

The app supports mobile check-in, wayfinding, and direct communication with hotel staff, making it easier to move between sessions, dining options, and networking events. While on site, attendees can explore a wide range of dining venues across the resort. Please note—the Gaylord Opryland operates as a cashless facility.

Concierge services are also available to help with dining reservations and local attractions. A complimentary shuttle runs continuously to Opry Mills Mall and nearby stops, with hours subject to change.
