Eddy + Clair

Eddy’s integration with Clair means employers can offer a free On-Demand Pay solution for employees. This allows employers to get employees paid daily, at no cost to them, no cost to the employee, and no change to payroll.

How it works for the employer

When you enable the Clair integration in Eddy you give consent to Eddy to share certain payroll information with Clair. Eddy will notify your employees that their company has enabled a new financial app, and will give employees a link to create a Clair Spending Account so they can sign up and begin taking free advances on their wages.
  • No impact or change to payroll—no manually uploading wage deductions to payroll
  • No cost to employers—Clair makes money when employees spend their earnings, so you have no fees.
  • No repayment liability on employers—Clair won’t go after you if your employees are unable to pay back their advances.
  • No change to cashflow—Advances are funded by a partner bank, not by your working capital.
  • Outside open enrollment—Clair works outside the traditional open enrollment process. Employees can onboard at any time of the year.
Offering solutions like earned wage advances can be beneficial for both employees and employers. With up to 74% of hourly employees expressing interest in free advances, employers can attract and retain employees by providing meaningful solutions.

How it works for employees

Clair offers a banking app that lets employees take free advances on a portion of their earnings before payday. Employees who are interested in this financial benefit can click the link to download the Clair app and create a Clair Spending Account. Clair verifies the employee’s identify, based on information shared through the integration with Eddy. When an employee opens a Clair Spending Account they can select a portion of their paycheck to send to Clair and will be able to take free advances based on that balance.
