Zeal · FinOps Profile

Zeal Hq Finops

FinOps view of Zeal embedded payroll spend. Zeal bills a per-employee-per- month (PEPM) and per-contractor-per-month fee for active paid workers on top of a platform / partner fee, with add-ons such as instant pay and paycards. Distinct from the platform subscription cost, the actual payroll dollars - disbursed wages plus employer taxes - flow through Zeal's funding reserve and should be tracked as a separate cost dimension. Test Mode moves no money and incurs no per-worker charges.
