The collaboration enables employers to streamline payroll while offering workers more control over their pay. Earned Wage Access, a rapidly growing benefit, allows employees to access wages ahead of traditional pay cycles—an option that surveys show significantly improves financial well-being. According to recent data, 65% of workers consider EWA highly important, 84% say it helps them pay bills on time, and 63% report improved perceptions of their employer when the benefit is offered.
Trusted by more than 7,000 businesses, rapid! delivers secure, compliant disbursement solutions powered by Green Dot’s proprietary money movement technology and banking infrastructure. With the ability to support payouts for W-2 and 1099 workers, tips, missed pay, termination pay, and bonuses, rapid! provides a holistic platform that meets the demands of today’s dynamic workforce.
By integrating with Workday, Green Dot and rapid! aim to reduce turnover, cut payroll costs, and give employees greater financial flexibility—all while strengthening workplace satisfaction and productivity.
