Paysafe’s HR Transformation: Building for Simplicity and Scale in the Real World

21 Oct 2026
Case Study Theater 1 - Expo Hall
Case Study Session

For Paysafe, modernizing HR technology meant more than replacing an HRIS. It meant rethinking how HR could operate consistently and effectively across a complex global organization. With greater manager self-service as a key ambition, Paysafe set out to simplify processes while meeting demanding requirements around compliance, reporting, talent management, integrations, and employee experience. Their journey demonstrates how quickly seemingly small technology requirements can become business-critical at enterprise scale.

In this candid session, Paysafe will share the criteria that shaped its technology decisions, the trade-offs involved in moving from established systems, and the realities the team encountered during implementation. Attendees will hear where new capabilities have opened opportunities to work differently, where challenges have required collaboration and problem-solving, and what the experience has taught the team about evaluating HR technology beyond the product demo.

The session offers a practical look at what it really takes to build an HR technology ecosystem that balances simplicity, flexibility, compliance, and scale.
