Financial empowerment
Offer your people more choice and better control through an exceptional range of wellbeing tools.
Helping employees develop a positive relationship with money is one of the most impactful things an employer can do.

Zellis has a range of solutions to help employers help their employees on the road to financial wellbeing.
Don’t just take our word for it
Vertas
“With Vertas acquiring bigger and bigger companies, we needed better reporting, and Zellis is giving us this capability. It’s really important for us to see information across all functions, not just in payroll, though. So, we will continue to harmonise our systems to get the very best visibility, with all information accessible in one place.”

“It’s amazing that something that started out as essentially a time-saving project has actually helped us to achieve some significant company objectives. It has had such a big impact on our organisation and the service we provide to employees.”

Give employees a seamless payslip experience
Disparate systems for pay and benefits create a disjointed employee experience. Data can’t be shared. Tasks can’t easily be automated. Employees spend too much time navigating multiple systems, hindering engagement and productivity.
Within our employee self-service platform, MyPay provides multiple payslip breakdowns and visualisations, allowing employees to check, plan, and compare, while reducing the number of payroll queries received by HR.
Single sign-on between our payroll, benefits, and employee recognition solutions eliminates login problems, boosts productivity, and strengthens engagement.
