The annual Payroll Congress allows you to participate in more than 100 educational workshops, networking events where you can make meaningful connections, general sessions featuring unforgettable speakers, and an industry Expo showcasing technologies shaping the future of payroll. This year, get in the game with PayrollOrg’s lineup of immersive electronic resources to help make your experience the best it can be.

 

Congress App Gives You Instant Info

Game on! The 43rd Annual Payroll Congress is here, and it arrives with a new, interactive app for attendees.

Ismael Rivera-Herrera, Website Specialist on PayrollOrg’s Communications team, said users can expect “an overall enhanced experience” while navigating the 2025 Congress and Expo app.

“This year’s Congress app features a more robust floor plan that enables attendees to find their way around the convention with greater ease,” he said. “Attendees will even be able to get directions from booth to booth if they need it.”

Some of the new features in the 2025 Payroll Congress app include the following:

  • Personalized schedule—Integrate the app with a personal agenda planner, allowing you to create and build a schedule with My Show Planner
  • Improved networking capability—Connect with vendors and peers via the Exhibitor Dashboard, which can serve as an online to-do center to help you organize important tasks
  • Greater access to Congress videos for viewing
  • Improved notifications about important events, workshops, and alerts from Congress Today Online
  • Enhanced mapping technology that enables you to locate specific Expo booths, workshops, and amenities

Download the 2025 Congress app from the Apple Store (iPhone users) or the Google Play Store (Android users).
