If what is available now in DailyPay has not been updated, please check to see that you have correctly logged your hours. Your earnings can potentially be delayed by the kind of work you're doing, how it's being reported or how much data is being entered by your employer's payroll team at one time.

DailyPay is connected to your employer's timekeeping system and receives automated reports of your hours worked. Usually, it takes 24 hours for a shift to be added to the automated reports.

When will I see updates to my available balance? hours are sent to DailyPay at 6 pm. Please note that if you are working a shift that does not end prior to 6 pm, your balance will update the following day. For example, if you work on Monday from 2 pm to 8 pm, your earnings will be available Tuesday at 6 pm.
The remaining balance is automatically deposited into the employee's primary bank account on payday, just like their regular paycheck. On payday, the employer sends the full net pay to DailyPay. The employee then receives their net pay minus any transfers as they normally would on payday.

Earned Wage Access Can Be Expensive For Employees
Many daily pay providers proudly advertise “No Fees,” but be careful of the fine print! While it may be free to sign up, it's not free to use. Many providers charge a fixed fee every time an employee accesses their funds, sometimes offering up to five transfers a week.
DailyPay is not a payday loan. Payday loans often have hidden fees or interest payments that can leave the borrower in debt. DailyPay enables you to access your earnings before payday, and there is no loan to repay of any kind.
Businesses with payroll processing solutions typically finish internal processes in one to two days. After payroll is submitted to the bank, it takes two to three days for wages to be deposited into employee bank accounts. So, employees receive their paychecks, on average, within five days of the pay period end date.
Please note: If you have made earnings transfers ahead of payday, you may request DailyPay account closure at any time, but we'll receive one final paycheck from your Employer to cover the transfers that we sent you early, passing along any remainder pay to your bank account on file.
