Floatr is an employee financial wellness platform for India, with salary-linked investing, Corporate NPS, insurance, and planning tools. It connects payroll to investments so contributions can be invested before the remaining salary reaches an employee's bank account. Depending on what an employer enables, options include mutual fund SIPs, Corporate NPS, digital gold, and other products. Employees can complete digital onboarding, choose funds, adjust SIP amounts, track holdings, and manage goals in the app. For salary-linked mutual funds, participation is voluntary, and employees can change or stop SIPs at any time. The payroll-linked investing page says employees can start from ₹500 per month. Employers receive guided implementation and an HR portal with enrollment dashboards that do not expose personal holdings. Deductions can flow through an existing HRMS or payroll file, but specific integrations are not named. Floatr lists programs for salaried teams, gig and frontline teams, and education institutions. It says investments remain in an employee's own folio or NPS account after a job change, while payroll deductions stop when employment ends. Pricing is on request.
