FAQs

What percentage of the market uses Paycor?

Given that Paycor boasts over 40,000 customers, and there were 6.1 million employers in the United States as of 2019, Paycor is estimated to serve 0.66% of the U.S. market.

How can I access the employment data in Paycor?

To access your customers’ employment data in Paycor, you have two options: 

  1. Build a custom 1:1 integration with Paycor via its public API, which enables automatic data sharing between the two apps. 
  2. Build a single integration with Finch to access the employment data housed in Paycor plus more than 200 other employment systems.

Does Paycor have a public API?

Paycor offers one public API to its customers and third-party developers who want to build innovative solutions for employers. Read about Paycor’s APIs.

You must first create an account and gain access before you can start building. Typically, third-party developers must become official partners, pass technical requirements checks, and invest in business development efforts.

How long does it take to build Paycor integration?

That largely depends on the integration method you choose. 

If you use Finch’s unified API to access the employment data in Paycor (alongside over 200 other HRIS and payroll systems), it can take as little as a few days. See our quickstart guide for more information.

If you instead decide to build a 1:1 integration leveraging Paycor’s public APIs, it can take weeks to months to receive your production keys. See Paycor's developer portal for more information.

Where can I find developer documentation and support?

If you’re building a 1:1 integration using Paycor’s public APIs, the company’s developer portal is the best place to start. That’s where you’ll find technical guides, API references, and the company’s changelog. 

If you’re integrating with Paycor via Finch’s unified API, navigate to our API docs. There, you’ll find a product demo, quickstart guide for developers, integration checklist, and product and developer guides, along with best practices to follow.

Of course, if you have any questions, we’d be happy to help answer them. Send your requests to developers@tryfinch.com.

When does it make sense to leverage a unified employment API?

Unified employment APIs help developers access data from payroll and HRIS systems employers use. Specifically, these APIs are useful for accessing data from a broad range of employment systems, or collecting detailed information about their customers’ payroll and benefits proograms. If your use case requires integrations with three or more employment systems, a unified employment API could save you hundreds of engineering hours and developer resources. 

Through a single integration, you can connect with over 200 employment systems (including Paycor)—unlocking up to 88% of the employer market. Once authorized by the employer, you’ll receive fresh data every 24 hours. From enterprise-grade security to read and write capabilities, Finch offers compelling benefits to employer-facing businesses of all shapes and sizes. Learn more
