Happy to recommend

Octopaye’s new worker verification functionality using “Postcoder” has transformed our worker onboarding and data processing. To have an integrated bank and address verification tools for bulk data uploads are fast, accurate, and incredibly reliable. We’ve seen significant efficiency gains and reduced errors when importing worker information in bulk. Integration was seamless, and as always the support from Octopaye is top-notch. This integration is now a vital part of our data verification workflow.
Highly recommended you speak to Rob at Octopaye about this functionality and the platform in general!
