Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about PayDozo

PayDozo is a modern compensation management platform that replaces spreadsheets with streamlined merit request workflows. Managers submit merit increase requests for their team members, approvers review them through customizable multi-step workflows, and HR gets notified automatically when requests are approved. Everything is tracked in real-time with full audit history.

You can create custom multi-step approval workflows with role-based or specific approvers. Requests automatically route to the right people based on your configuration, with real-time email notifications at each step. You can even configure different workflows based on raise amount thresholds, so larger increases require additional approvals.

Yes. PayDozo uses role-based access control so only authorized users can see salary information. Managers see only their direct reports' data, admins have organization-wide access, and employees see only their own salary. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with enterprise-grade security practices.

You have full control over who sees what. By default, employees can only see their own salary, managers can see their direct reports' compensation, and admins can see everyone in the organization. This hierarchy-based access control ensures sensitive compensation data stays confidential and only reaches the people who need it.

Most teams are up and running within minutes. Simply create your organization, invite your team members via email, set up your approval workflows, and start submitting merit requests. No complex implementation, data migration, or IT involvement required. Our intuitive interface means minimal training is needed.
