Branch, the leading workforce payments platform, has launched Branch Embedded, a new solution that enables businesses to integrate fast payment options directly into their existing applications and platforms. By leveraging Branch Embedded, companies can accelerate time-to-market, reduce engineering burdens, and unlock new revenue streams without the expense or complexity of building payments infrastructure from the ground up.

Building internal payment systems is costly, time-intensive, and compliance-heavy. Branch Embedded addresses this challenge by managing the entire payment lifecycle, including card issuing, fraud prevention, disputes, and customer support. This allows platforms to focus on scaling their core business while providing workers with modern, flexible payout options.
Branch Embedded is tailored for vertical SaaS platforms, gig marketplaces, and enterprise apps that need secure, scalable financial solutions. With pre-built components, companies can quickly integrate features like:
Earned Wage Access (EWA): Let workers access wages in real time.
1099 Payouts: Simplify contractor payments at scale.
Paycards: Offer branded debit cards to meet diverse payout needs.
“Branch Embedded gives our partners the power to add a native payments experience in weeks instead of quarters,” said Atif Siddiqi, Founder and CEO of Branch. “By simplifying payouts and compliance, we help platforms delight their users, strengthen worker loyalty, and unlock new revenue opportunities. All without the heavy engineering lift.”
