We invest more on R&D than our major competitors combined. The result? 2024 was one of our biggest years yet. So big in fact, we decided to look back at our product launch highlights from the year.
Strategic tools for HR
Scheduling
With Scheduling, companies across industries like retail and healthcare can use Rippling to precisely craft schedules based on customer demand, employee certifications, and hundreds of other data points so they can best serve their customers—and their bottom line.

Goals
We launched Goals with a simple goal of our own—to help you quickly align your company on a shared set of objectives. Your managers can create goals, cascade them through reporting lines, and allocate ownership to specific people. Even better? By pulling Goals data into reports, it’s easy to measure how teams are performing against goals.
Custom Course Builder
Your employee training needs are just as unique as your business. So we built a tool that lets you create your very own courses in Rippling’s LMS for both company-specific trainings and upskilling your workforce.
Robust updates across IT
Device Trust
Using Rippling’s unified MDM and IdP, you can now easily enforce behavioral detection rules with Supergroups to ensure only applicable users with managed devices can access specific third-party apps and company resources. Setup only takes a few clicks and maintenance is a breeze, with Rippling acting as the certificate authority moving forward.
IT Management app
We gave you total visibility into and control over all things IT with our IT Management app. You can view users, their devices, and their access in one place. Stay in sync with HR, thanks to a single dashboard for managing tasks and IT requests. Build custom approval policies for IT actions, like app provisioning and device orders, to be as hands-on (or hands-off) as you like.
Global inventory management
We’re still the only platform to let you order, ship, configure, and securely warehouse and retrieve devices. No more messy supply closets, missing devices, or last minute trips to FedEx or Best Buy. With Rippling, you can ship, warehouse, and retrieve laptops 100% remotely for employees in Canada, Australia, the UK, and the EU.
Zero touch deployment
We built the Rippling Agent so Rippling can configure your company’s devices in the background—applying security policies, installing software, and keeping you compliant—without creating work for you or your employees.
Enhanced global workforce management
Employer of Record
We dramatically expanded the countries you can hire, pay, and manage employees in. We added 22 new EOR countries: Belgium, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Denmark, Finland, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, and the UAE.
Global Payroll
We built native payroll in three new countries: the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Singapore. Because our engineers built these payroll solutions from the ground up, companies with entities in these countries can now prepare and run payroll in minutes with the same experience as using Rippling for your domestic payroll.
Global Contractor Hub
We launched Contractor Hub with two new features to increase control and visibility for contractor payments. Contractors can now submit invoices right in Rippling. After you approve, invoices sync straight to payroll. In Rippling Balance, contractors can see upcoming payments dates, access new withdrawal methods like Wise, and contact Rippling support directly.
New ways to control company spend
Bill Pay
We took the busy work out of bills and gave you a faster, more reliable way to pay vendors. With Bill Pay, you can automatically create bills from invoices, route them for approval, and schedule payments. This gives you a unified view of global spend across your payroll, expenses, corporate cards, and bills.
Corporate Cards in Canada
You needed company cards that work in Canada, so we delivered. Whether you have an HQ or subsidiary in Canada, you can avoid foreign exchange fees on in-country transactions and pay in the local currency, streamlining spending and reporting.
Faster reimbursements
Your employees didn’t want to wait for expense reimbursement. With direct deposits, we let them choose whether they want to be reimbursed as part of their payroll run or to an account of their choosing any time they submit an expense for reimbursement.
More power behind our platform
Field-Level Permissions
Whether it’s letting a manager update team assignments without seeing compensation details or enabling HR to view sensitive fields without editing them, our updated permissions give you unprecedented and secure control over employee data. They let you grant view or edit access to specific fields, ensuring the right people always have precisely the right level of access.
Looking ahead to an even bigger 2025
More control over Spend and company travel. Stronger business outcomes powered by our HCM. And even more advancements to our IT suite. We’ve got a lot in store for next year. And if you can’t wait, schedule time with us to get a preview of our upcoming launches.
Happy New Year!
