“We strongly believe that in the future, workers will get paid real time, on demand, when they want to receive their earnings and employers are going to be forced to offer this capability if they want to attract and retain the best workforce,” he said.
Sackman noted that will be a big change for the typical nonthly, semimonthly, biweekly for traditional employees or net 60 or net 90 for freelance workers.
