How does payroll integration work?

Choose between two types of payroll integration: 360° and 180°.

360° payroll integration

With 360° payroll integration, payroll data is exchanged between the payroll provider, the employer, and Ascensus. When an employee makes a change to their savings rate or loan status, the data is automatically transmitted to the payroll provider—and employee updates are made within the payroll system’s records. With the 360° model, employers have minimal involvement outside of processing payroll.

180° payroll integration

With 180° payroll integration, payroll data is exchanged between the payroll provider and Ascensus, helping automate the contribution process. The employer receives weekly notifications from Ascensus if an employee makes an election change. The employer must manually enter those changes into their payroll software program.

Get started with payroll integration

Find the payroll provider you currently use or are interested in using on the list of partners we work with, and contact the provider directly to inquire about payroll integration. The provider will appoint a specialist to handle the payroll integration setup.

Provide Ascensus with the payroll integration specialist information, and Ascensus will work with the payroll provider to have the plan set up with payroll integration.
