Onsi: Supporting flexible workers with faster access to pay and benefits

A third of UK workers live paycheck to paycheck, without any spare cash for emergencies. That can mean a reliance on loans and credit cards when unexpected expenses appear. Created to tackle these problems, Onsi’s vision is a ‘world of work where everyone wins’.

The Onsi platform enables businesses like parcel delivery company, Evri and ride-hailing company Addison Lee, to reward their workers. Onsi started by offering insurance for self-employed workers, providing the protection usually covered by permanent contracts, such as accident and sickness cover. Since then, it has evolved into a platform for workers to also gain access to discounts and withdraw their pay early, once they’ve completed a shift.

Onsi is growing fast. With over 900,000 users across 36 countries, it’s closing in on its mission to benefit one million workers’ lives by 2025. Supporting workers across multiple markets with fast access to pay and benefits needs the right technology and expertise.

Here’s how Adyen is helping Onsi simplify its expansion and roll out new financial products, like their On-demand Pay product, to benefit even more workers.
