PTO Conversion
Boost Employee Wellness and Financial Peace of Mind
Give your employees the power to convert their unused PTO into what matters most to them.



What is PTO Conversion?
PTO conversion is a new employee benefit that gives employees the option to convert their accrued paid time off (PTO) into cash or cash-equivalent benefits, like retirement savings and student loan payments.
Unlike PTO buy-back or PTO cash-out, PTO conversion accounts for a wider range of employee needs by offering more channels through which to convert PTO.
- Flexible new employee benefit
- Convert PTO into more than cash
- Easy to implement and manage
