Branch reveals Employer Payments Platform

The reason behind the company’s decision to create the platform is to provide an integrated solution for businesses seeking faster, more reliable ways to move money to employees instantly. The Branch EPP provides employers and technology partners a free solution to deliver on-demand payments and empower their employees with tools including digital payouts of tips, wages, and other disbursements, earned wage access, fee-free banking, and paycard alternative. 

The EPP’s open APIs enable both real-time data transfer and an integrated experience within an employer or technology partner’s platform. HR, payroll, and IT platform Rippling is the most recent partner to adopt the solution, embedding the Branch EPP into its platform to offer its customers an integrated paycard alternative along with the ability to provide faster onboarding, payments, and fee-free banking to employees.
