Don’t have an expense integration you need? Look no further! You can now add or retrieve expenses from Oyster with Zapier. Automatically upload expenses from your Google Sheets to Oyster, or from Oyster to your Google Sheets—whether in bulk or in real-time.
Set up your desired workflows, i.e. “zaps,” by following these steps or click below to enable the Zapier integration first.
What else is new?
A more discreet offboarding process: Offboarding is a delicate matter, and foresight is key. You may want to start the process well ahead of time. When you initiate offboarding on Oyster, rest assured that it remains confidential—we will not notify team members. If there’s any compensation-related contract change in progress, you’ll be promptly informed to avoid issues down the road. Additionally, the team member engagement status will change to “terminated” one day after the agreed termination date, giving you enough time for necessary actions. Learn how it works.
Oyster fees in the pre-funding invoice: Oyster fees are charged in the pre-funding invoice. You can see the fees on the Payroll page in the app. Any changes in the Oyster fees between the pre-funding date and the end of the month will be applied to the settlement invoice. Learn more here.
