Paylocity × PayDay Portal
If your team lives in the Paylocity app, the tips that land there should already be reconciled.
Paylocity (NASDAQ: PCTY) is the mid-market HCM that hospitality operators love for its mobile-first experience — managers and employees both live in the same app. PayDay Portal feeds tax-coded, pool-applied tip earnings directly into Paylocity Web Pay, so the paycheck the employee opens in the Paylocity app already includes the right tips, computed the right way.
Paylocity powers payroll and HCM for 36,000+ businesses.
Paylocity is a cloud-native HCM platform serving mid-market employers across payroll, HR, time, talent, and benefits. Built mobile-first, it’s a popular choice for hospitality operators that want a single web/mobile experience for managers and employees. PayDay Portal integrates directly with Paylocity Web Pay so every shift’s tips arrive tax-coded, pool-applied, and reconciled — no manual entry into Web Pay, no spreadsheets, no reconciliation errors at year-end.
