On-Demand Pay (Clair)
What is On-Demand Pay / Earned Wage Access (EWA)?
On-Demand Pay, also known as Earned Wage Access (EWA), gives employees the option to access earned wages / funds before their scheduled payday. Clair on-demand pay is available through the Company and Employee Earned Wage Access Enrollment Flows.

[Employee POV] Flow Experience Walkthrough
1. Employee - Opt In
Once the company has connected to Clair, their employees will be able to opt-in during the payroll onboarding process (after entering their banking information).
2. Clair - Account Signup
Upon opt-in, employees will be able to sign up for a Clair account by providing information like name, email, and SSN. On occasion, employees will need to wait to have their information verified.
Gusto - Onboarding Completion
Gusto employee onboarding can be completed without Clair. In addition, the employee must be fully onboarded through Gusto before they will be able to use Clair’s ODP service. Partners offering Clair may need to provide additional guidance here.
3. Download the Clair App
Once sign up and verification have been confirmed, employees will need to download the Clair app on their mobile phone to access their bank account. In order to be eligible for On-Demand Pay, employees can select a percentage (up to 100%) of their paycheck to direct deposit into their Clair Spending Account.
4. Completion
Employees can then use the Clair App to instantly advance a portion of their day’s wages without incurring any fees.
