PayActiv has been a horrible experience for every employee that tried it. Every employee was overcharged and despite weeks of calls and emails, the money has still not been refunded to them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Next to impossible to get assistance. Employees have reported rude and uncaring attitude from PayActive employees. These issues occured in July and it is almost September. Everyone says the money will be refunded to them "tomorrow." It's been two weeks of tomorrows and no one has their money back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


We've been using PayActiv for over 3 years now without a single problem. It is absolutely seamless for us, in that it does not cost us time or money. About 20% to 25% of our workforce will use them in any given pay period. I haven't had a single employee ask for an advance on their paycheck since we started using PayActiv. I have recommended them to my fellow franchisees and other business owners that know. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to dislike, at least not for me. Once we got them set-up with our payroll company everything has worked beautifully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The service they offer is important in this day and age. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The service is not working. There have been all kinds of issues once our ee's are given their cards. Very few have actually been able to get their money early. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the anonymity for employees is very helpful they are more likely to use the service because they can do it with minimal people knowing and keep their dignity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
many payperiods we have to reach out to Payactiv to have them upload our hours so that emplyees can access money very frustrating to the employee as well as us because we are a small operation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I got a 15$ bonus to sign up and they called to offer 10 more upon card activation. A free 25$! Also great for other employees to get items for the office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The virtual card Can't be used on google pay, cashapp or PayPal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is convenient and easy for our employees to use, giving them access to their future wages instantly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a user, I can't honestly say there have been many issues with Pay Activ. The mobile app is user friendly and was easy to download and set up. It is convienent and easy to use and gives me instant access to my wages with the click of a button. The fees are reasonable and it has saved me time and money with its accessiblity and ease of use.
As an Administrator, the initial process of setting up and implementing Pay Activ took some work. We ran into some issues with the reports that needed to run for Pay Activ for our employees hours and earnings. But the representative worked with me to fix the issues and it has turned out to be an amazing feature for our employees allowing them access to their wages and saving them money from other high interest options they may have sought out before Pay Active.

PayActiv is very easy to use and the employees are always so helpful. The employees are always willing to help and go above and beyond. The amount they charge to access funds is more than reasonable and a lot of employees benefit from their service. It is a great company and I love working along side of them.

I cannot say I dislike anything about PayActiv honestly, I never have any issues or problems with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Shariq has been splendid through our company's journey with PayActiv. He is very responsive and attentive whenever we have issues. When he gave us the training, he was very thorough and detailed on how the process works. He also shared with us the marketing material and where to find everything on the hub. Even after this, whenever we needed assistance with training material and the like, we would reach out to him, and he would point us in the right direction on where to get it. The part about employees being able to get their pay in advance is amazing, as well as, all the features the app and platform offer. I specially like the financial assistance where you teach users how to better use their money. Also, the gas promotion was awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
During our implementation, our representative at the time Ed Meehan, was slow responding to our inquiries and issues. Sometimes, it would take days for him to get back to us, or he would only get back to one of our team members. We held various meetings with him about the status of the process and in the end, the implementation was delayed by a week because they did not have all the employees in the system yet. Also, as of late, I’ve received emails, out of nowhere, from members of the PayActiv stating they’re in charge of the account and that they’d like to hold a meeting. For me, building a relationship with the company and knowing there’s a go-to person that will quickly and effectively assist me is vital. Having the people in charge of the account be swapped or attempt to be swapped without prior notice to the client is confusing. However, in each case, I expressed my desire to stay with the same people and they accommodated this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
