My employees already receive their payslips via email, why do I need payslips via Jem?

We have many clients that used to deliver payslips using email but were having numerous problems with this. Employees were forgetting their user names and passwords. Employees would attempt their password 3 times and get blocked from the system. Email payslips were bouncing or being sent to their junk folder. Due to these issues, employees would have countless payslip queries per month. Jem eradicates all of these issues using WhatsApp as the channel for delivery.

Once you’ve switched your number on WhatsApp, send “Hi” to our WhatsApp chatbot on 079 244 7062 and follow the prompts.”

We have many clients that used to deliver payslips using SMS but were having trouble tracking if employees were receiving their payslips or not. This is because employees were changing their cellphone numbers regularly. Further, payslips over SMS alone cannot be delivered in a BCEA compliant format. Jem offers a reporting module so you can track when an employee has received or read any form of communication (including their payslip). When an employee changes their number, they simply message the Jem WhatsApp chatbot using the new number, and re-authenticate. Our system will update their number automatically. Jem is also BCEA compliant.

Yes, absolutely. Jem works with all payroll systems as a simple-add on feature. We simply make payslips available to your employees via WhatsApp with no changes to your existing payroll system.

Once we have a signed quote from you, our client experience team will set up a 30 minute onboarding call to walk you through the Jem dashboard. The last step is for you to send us your employee data, and we take care of the rest! All of this can be completed within 2 days with about 2 hours worth of input required from you.

A payslip can only be delivered to an employee via their personal cell phone. An employee must first confirm their name, surname, and ID number before they can access their payslip.
