2. Same-Day Payroll: We addressed the growing need for faster payroll solutions in a globalized workforce. Routefusion’s same-day payroll solution empowers businesses to pay employees accurately and on time, boosting retention and satisfaction.

We also announced the launch of new API documentation, designed to make integrations smoother and more intuitive, reinforcing our commitment to developer-first solutions.
