Which currencies are supported?

As a cross-border payment provider, it is critical for us to make sure your employees receive their salary in the currency of their choice. Papaya is licensed to accept funds in over seven different currencies including EU and USD, and can pay out in any currency your worker prefers. See full details in our payments coverage page.

What is a payroll wallet?

A payroll wallet is a virtual payment account dedicated to payroll. It is used specifically for managing payroll transactions to employees and authorities. This is a simple and secure way to streamline the payroll process and to ensure that all payroll-related transactions are properly recorded and accounted for. Papaya’s payroll wallet is a client money account (CMA) hosted by either J.P. Morgan or Citibank – our official payments partners.

How can I trust Papaya with my funds?

Papaya Global is a regulated financial institution and the only global payroll provider currently offering insured international payroll payments. Papaya Global’s acquisition of payment remittance technology company Azimo provided us access to an extensive payroll payments coverage network in more than 160 countries.

Our partnership with J.P. Morgan and Citibank’s payments processing solutions powers Papaya Global’s fully automated, regulated, and transparent software solution.

What KYC process do you require?

Papaya offers a comprehensive yet efficient KYC process that is streamlined and owned by a dedicated team – and completed in one to seven days.

What is Papaya’s support process?

Payroll payments require immediate attention, and Papaya offers 24/7 (including weekend and after-hour) support to ensure payroll payments are paid on time.

What screening process is there in place? 

Papaya developed a unique screening technology that performs a double verification mechanism for every single payment. This takes place upon payroll calculation then again during the payments process. The verification ensures we identify possible AML or any other risky payments immediately, and avoid delays and frustrations.
