Overview

CloudPay is a managed global payroll and payments provider that delivers a single, unified SaaS platform for multinational employers. The company combines technology with managed payroll services, handling multi-country payroll processing, statutory compliance, and cross-border payments through one system and a single point of accountability.

The platform processes payroll in well over 100 countries and supports payments in many currencies, with services that include managed payroll execution, global payment processing, on-demand pay, compliance and statutory reporting, and real-time reporting and analytics. CloudPay integrates with leading HRIS and HCM systems so master data flows into payroll and results flow back to finance.

CloudPay is aimed at mid-market and enterprise organizations that want to consolidate fragmented in-country payroll under one managed provider. It emphasizes automation, API integrations, and analytics to give global payroll teams consistency and visibility across all jurisdictions.
