Virtual payroll accounts are an option to traditional checking account for managing payroll payments. This is especially useful for international organizations with dispersed and remote workforces, as it simplifies the complicated process of cross-border payments. Instead of keeping separate checking account for payroll in different nations, virtual accounts and digital wallets offer a more structured option. In this webinar, we will explore the benefits of using virtual payroll accounts and discuss why they are becoming a tactical possession for payroll executives. We will also offer a wrap-up of the bottom lines covered and leave time for a Q&A session at the end.
making payroll payments accurately effectively firmly and on time throughout this webinar we’ll walk you through the international pros and cons of a payroll wallet versus a payroll checking account how business accurately forecast their payroll costs to increase working capital and how enhancing Global payroll payments can turn them from a siled pane into a strategic asset so payroll can be difficult in enough in one nation however when you’re doing it globally it’s next level and Beyond it becomes intricate for a range of factors most importantly policies compliance data security and banking guidelines then there are the sheer numbers they include additional complexity the global Labor force is currently 3 and a half billion people by 2030 it’s approximated that in Africa alone they will contribute and additional 1.1 billion people that number is currently 500 million just for for a scale then consider that there are some 230 million services and growing all doing their own thing all over the world in the traditional payroll design there’s often a frustrating number of various systems causing time-consuming manual processes and silos the number of Integrations could be non-existent in large quantities and or really really basic there’s no real consistency framework we’re living in an era of tech but payroll has been sluggish to get on board in fact as much as 25 of payroll is still done by hand typically with pen and paper which just blows my mind every time I I think
about it to offer you an idea of how far there still is to come according to Deloitte just 11 of organizations state they have Labor force information in real time that’s another number that gives me sleep deprived nights and quite honestly the more a service spends on worldwide payroll the less of a photo they see an absence of presence likewise encompasses payroll payments and inability to accurately track these payments can cause compliance accidents in the last mile of the transaction nearly half of international organizations have revealed that they do not have the level of standardization they need in their procedures or desire and as a result eighty percent of errors are due to time reporting bad HCM information information entry errors badly communicated hires and terminations as well as absence management and system setups and after that when you round it all off and the information is shipped to the incorrect place the typical cost of a worldwide data breach at this moment is 3.9 billion dollars as soon as payrolls are done we still need to move the cash worldwide payroll and payments do not run efficiently if they depend on the needed several processes systems and partners it is simply not possible so Johnny from a payments point of view and in your experience what else needs to be factored into the difficulties business face when they’re making payments to workers or otherwise that’s a good question I always throw this back and say what is it what doesn’t require to be included best and what does
it need to be thought about there’s varying Bank details so the length of an eye band a swift an account number routing code per nation there’s payment amount of time there’s payment abilities so can you pay it from International or do you have to pay from an in-country account do you need to pay from the client’s own in-country account so there’s complexity wherever you look ideal ultimately constructing a knowledge base is definitely crucial however everywhere you look with payroll payment they resemble super payments no if however some infants about it you are all superheroes processing payments for payroll if you look at the kind of link between fintech and payroll it’s closer than ever I believe there’s now a bit more acknowledgment that payroll payments are definitely essential and technology is enabling us to type of move on with that it also also to add to that payroll and financing require to work closer together um with differing Bank Account Particulars varying banking requirements and setup processes is absolutely crucial that payroll and financing teams work more detailed together than ever um I’m always astonished when individuals state I’ve divided payroll and payment um if you walk down the street and asked anybody what is payroll who does not work in the payroll occupation would they split the payroll payment from calculation I would say no so why do we as an industry accept that why our payroll and payments so frequently split and cut up um eventually it’s payroll is an end-to-end procedure it’s the point of information collection all the way through to paying individuals anywhere they are but likewise paying statutory authorities and on statutory 3rd parties so with the
world we live in and well-being being increasingly more important to add to kind of the level of complexity there’s a growing number of advantages being organ or being provided by businesses across the world so once again you’re just looking to include more and more payments to this currently complex landscape so if you type of got any experience well I’m from your huge experience here and I make certain but have you got any experience in kind of genuine challenges or genuine difficult type of pay utilizes to play to pay individuals I believe yeah I indicate over the last well yeah a number of decades I would definitely say that the larger an organization gets the more it tends to segregate the payroll and the payments functions um there are teams doing one part of the task there are groups feeding info into the next function as it were that’s actually managing the payment side of things but you know in in my opinion and my experience that does not necessarily need to be the case you know long gone are the times where we require to develop additional handoffs in the processes that we operate in they simply make them more prompt they make them less effective and they do not make them what they need to be in in a period of tech and a period that you understand that we are working in today there is no reason that we are still making this as tough as it needs to be agreed and rightly as you said payroll is the single biggest liability that any business has from an expense viewpoint from an impact perspective on employees it is absolutely important that it’s done correctly and on time so what we imply by that is not a day before not a day after on pay day and payments need to be done right it has the greatest damaging result on individuals’s well-being and lots of other elements if individuals aren’t paid uh I’ve always been amazed entering this Market sort of the last five to 10 years is how little thanks the
payroll team get um so I’m not sure anybody on this kind of webinar has been told thank you for processing my payroll correctly if you have it ‘d be fantastic to hear your success story and whether that’s been from all workers or not um but ultimately payroll is such a crucial cycle all of us find out about it when it goes wrong everybody jumps up and down when it fails however when it goes right it’s just a tick box exercise and I believe that’s how it’s seen from the external deem well um so yeah it’s likewise like why WI-Fi Global why all of this things is definitely essential that all of this things is done correctly so leveraging the very first International Payments first payroll payment service is a great initial step um providing an end-to-end payroll service for your employees globally once again I believe is another big um process again lining up and guaranteeing you have standardization Worldwide procedures all of those things are definitely crucial to success success of services and reducing the number of tools platforms and checking account they require for their Global payroll too could not agree with you more and on the the front in terms of of the thank yous for getting payroll done I have actually never ever had a hundred countless them within a payroll cycle do not expect to you do get the odd 5 or ten or whatever it might be with the with the the complaints where things haven’t gone quite where they’re suggested to be um I do not think any of us are really doing that for for the thanks
anyway we know how how important a role it is which’s why we do it that’s why we get on with it and this is why we’re talking today about making it as easy as possible for everyone that’s associated with those procedures and likewise so envision sorry I’m just I was just gon na state envision the amount of thanks you got if you could cover the amount of people that we cover within this webinar I make sure we’re discussing hundreds of thousands possibly Millions picture getting that numerous thank you notes um I imply it ‘d be interesting to see how many Post-it notes you got however it would definitely be an intriguing task attempting to clean all those up for sure oh definitely I can’t picture the size of my my Outlook inbox if that held true um you ‘d require days of the week to try to look through them and actually see what was going on and type of shot to get back to everyone so carrying on look why do business select to main different savings account there are Papaya Global (Hk) Limited services out there doing exactly this for specific nations and I have actually worked in an organization or many organizations doing precisely that I can state it doesn’t constantly feel effective and it does develop more work I understand we’re not intentionally doing that we’re not creating additional work for any person where we don’t have to and any person that’s managing that process I ‘d be interested to hear your thoughts Johnny why do you think that we’re doing that in in the in the quantity that we are I think many factors one is it’s the requirement I believe individuals have actually got so used to we require a new bank account we open an entity and appropriately so you require it for payroll functions however there are a variety of markets where it’s not a requirement so I believe it’s just been the standard and the norm the people have embraced and continue to do over years and years gone past to contribute to that people have taken a look at things like trust accounts and lots of other methods um to to type of do it so I think there’s a range I think this is a procedure that requires taking a look at it requires changing but eventually individuals are extremely stuck to what they’re familiar
with best um change is a difficult thing we all do not like change um so I believe it’s just sort of moving away from the norm as we’ve said so yeah so it keeps a great deal of track of stuff um I comprehend clearly the advantages of having maintaining several savings account but there’s a big quantity of intricacy goes with establishing a savings account maintaining it ensuring it can send International transfers guaranteeing it’s established with the right user accesses for private people so the intricacy is substantial but I believe the truthful answer is modification um individuals haven’t been able to change or haven’t had necessarily the knowledge to actually make that change into alternate Solutions other than opening a bank account I think you’ve hit the nail on the head I believe it is knowledge you understand and there is an element of resistance to change however we have actually always done it that way is no genuine reason for not taking a look at the the benefits and the possibilities of proceeding and moving into you know what might nearly be figured out to be the next Century approximately there is a lot to keep an eye on and this technique does posture a number of obstacles um so Johnny might you inform us about those obstacles yeah of course so there’s a range right there is so
I recently made a modification to our Enterprise system by transitioning to OS. As a result, we can now manage our payroll and payment tasks on one platform. It feels like our CFO has actually acquired another CFO, and with this improved capability, I have effectively protected payments for our 10,000 workers worldwide. Your devotion to mastering international payroll and payments utilizing Papaya payroll OS is good. You deserve a corner workplace with a parking space that is better, considering your achievements.
