Earned wage access (EWA) is reshaping payroll.
EWA has emerged as a financial wellness benefit for employees, but programs can vary significantly in structure, funding, and repayment methodology-each with different implications for payroll operations and compliance.
Join PayrollOrg on Wednesday, March 11, at 1:00 p.m. ET for Earned Wage Access Models: Repayment Structures and Payroll Considerations, sponsored by rapid! During this webinar, free for PAYO members, you’ll get an overview of the most common EWA models and learn how different repayment and settlement structures can improve operations.
This webinar will discuss the most common EWA models, including employer-sponsored and direct-to-consumer (D2C) approaches. We will also examine common repayment and settlement structures such as payroll deduction, payroll intercept, and settlement-based models. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of how these models interact with payroll processes, pay timing, and administrative responsibilities.

- How to distinguish between employer-sponsored and D2C EWA models
- Common EWA repayment and settlement methods
- How EWA models impact payroll workflows and pay cycles
