Get help facilitating New York Secure Choice
Introduction to Payroll Integrations
We’ve made it easy for employers to submit payroll contributions
Employers that have registered with New York Secure Choice may choose to work with their payroll provider to facilitate the program.
The employer portal allows easy integrations with many payroll providers, allowing for an automated submission process of your employees' contributions.
If you don’t use an external payroll provider, or if they’re not interested in an integration, don't worry: the process to manually upload payroll contributions is quick and simple.
What employers should know
Once you've registered your business:
Talk with your payroll provider to see if they can help you facilitate the program.
If they can help, add your payroll representatives as Teammates to your New York Secure Choice account.
Authorize your payroll provider as a Teammate to perform certain tasks on your behalf.
With Teammate access, your payroll representatives can manage your employee list and process payroll—even if your payroll provider is not integrated with your account. If your payroll provider is integrated with your account, you may still need to authorize Teammate access so the payroll provider can keep your employee list up to date.
What payroll providers should know
If you're a payroll provider, consider helping your clients to facilitate New York Secure Choice.
Using the employer portal
Your client can give you and your payroll team access to help with payroll or administration. To see what's required, and to learn how to assist your client with preparing employee information to upload, review this employee upload template.
Payroll providers can also assist clients with sending contributions by uploading an employee payroll file with contribution information or entering the employee information directly in the portal. To ensure you have all the required employee information to upload, please use this contribution upload template.
Integrating payroll providers
New York Secure Choice works with different payroll providers to offer 360° integrations to help automate the payroll submission process. There is no charge from New York Secure Choice for a payroll integration and it is not mandatory to use an available integration.
If you are a payroll provider who would like to learn more about the 360° integrations with the program, please reach out to statepayrollintegrations@vestwell.com.
