By offering Flexible Pay as a benefit, organizations can demonstrate their commitment to supporting their employees' financial well-being, which can help attract and retain employees. By partnering with a Flexible Pay provider like OneSource Virtual, organizations can also reduce administrative burden significantly.
Increased loyalty
Providing Flexible Pay as a benefit improves workplace satisfaction & keeps your employees loyal. With 70% of employees in the US saying they want flexible pay, this shows in our data that people are 5.4x times more likely to stay with an employer if they offer this.
Improved financial wellness
When employees have access to flexible pay, they are less likely to experience financial stress or hardship. This can lead to improved overall financial wellbeing, which can translate into organizational benefits too. 90% of people who use flexible pay report that their financial circumstances have improved, and 84% attribute this directly to flexible pay.
Reduction in payroll administration
By partnering with a Flexible Pay provider, employers can reduce the administrative burden of managing payroll advances or employee loans. This can save time and resources for HR and payroll departments.
Reduction in costs
Flexible Pay can help reduce the cost of turnover and absenteeism. When employees have financial stability and are satisfied with their job benefits, they are more likely to stay with the company and be productive.
Increased Shift Uptake
Flexible Pay strengthens the link between work and pay, meaning employees are motivated to take on additional shifts. Employees who have access to myFlexSpend increase shift-work by up to 26%.
Reducing absenteeism
Financial stress is costing US businesses $4.7bn a week in lost productivity. Reducing absenteeism by offering a tool that tackles financial stress can have a direct impact on your bottom line.
“Getting early access to money you’ve already earned seems so simple, but this is a real revolution in pay that is already making it easier to recruit and retain staff.”

Is Flexible Pay a loan or credit?
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") recently issued advisory guidance addressing whether the Truth in Lending Act ("TILA") and the related Regulation Z applies to Flexible Pay & EWA programs.
Different programs vary on key aspects of their process. But some characteristics, as explained in the CFPB's advisory opinion, can make Flexible Pay & EWA sufficiently distinct to not be considered a form of credit:
- The EWA provider contracts with the employer to offer EWA services to workers
- The amounts available to access are not more than what the worker has already earned
- No reporting of EWA transactions to credit bureaus
- No issuance of post-dated checks by the worker to the EWA provider
- The EWA provider recovers the withdrawn earned wages through an employer-facilitated payroll deduction or similar recovery mechanism from the employee's next paycheck.
The CFPB emphasizes that EWA programs that vary from these criteria are not necessarily forms of lending. The CFPB guidance is only determinative for those programs that fit the prescribed characteristics.
How much does it cost for employees to access earned wages?
There is a fixed fee each time a transfer is made. This is paid by the employee unless you decide to subsidise it.
