CONTRACTOR EXPERIENCE

Easy invoices and faster paycheques

A faster payday starts with easy invoice submissions, review, escalations, and approvals. Then, pay contractors in days.

Approvals at top speed

Auto-approve invoices based on approved time cards, contracts, or custom criteria. Speed up manual reviews with visibility of contract details, comments, and more.

Status checks in real time

Check on pending contracts, know exactly what they’re for, see which ones are paid out, and have a unified view for approvers, HR, finance, and contractors.

Contractor controls

Contractors can log in at any time to check their balance and upcoming payments. This gives contractors control to withdraw on their own terms.

Pay within days

Cross-border payments and currency conversions are time-consuming, complex, and tedious. Rippling handles all of this and pays contractors within days, not weeks.

Global AUTOMATION

Gain speed and control

When it comes to contractor processes, eliminate manual mistakes with automation you can trust. Rippling protects you from errors, so that your work speeds up.

Do less data entry

Generate an invoice for hourly or fixed-rate contractors. You don’t need to spend time uploading hours. Invoices automatically load into payroll.

Get ready for payroll on time

Powerful, flexible tools mean payroll runs stay on time. Customize approval routing policies and create workflows to escalate invoice approval reminders.

Put KYC on autopilot

Rippling automatically collects KYC documents from your contractors and handles compliance work like identity verification.

Built different

Analyze, automate, and orchestrate anything

Most “all-in-one” software consists of acquired systems. These modules are disconnected, so your business data is, too. Rippling takes a platform approach, building products on a single source of truth for all the business data related to employees. This rich, flexible data source unlocks a powerful set of capabilities.
