Frequently Asked Questions

Do 401k contributions have to go through payroll?

For employer-sponsored 401(k) plans, employee salary deferrals are generally withheld through payroll and then transmitted to the retirement plan or recordkeeper. Payroll is also commonly used to calculate employer contributions, deductions, compensation details, and loan repayments. An integration helps retirement platforms receive and reconcile this information from supported payroll systems without relying on repeated manual uploads.
