FreeAgent Payroll

Vergo reads FreeAgent Payroll data through FreeAgent's public API; that payroll API is read-only, so Vergo prepares approved reimbursements in the format FreeAgent expects rather than altering payroll records.

App description

  • Employees claim out-of-pocket costs with receipts in Vergo the day they spend them
  • Receipts captured and matched by AI at submission, so finance reviews exceptions, not every claim
  • Approval workflows run on your rules in Vergo — amount thresholds, project, department — before anything is paid
  • Read payroll periods and payslip data out of FreeAgent so every claim lands against the right employee and period
  • Prepare the approved reimbursement amount per employee in the format FreeAgent expects for the pay period
  • Keep a clean audit trail per employee for reconciliation against FreeAgent Payroll

Frequently asked questions

Does Vergo integrate with FreeAgent Payroll?

Yes, with an important limit. Vergo connects self-serve to FreeAgent's public API and reads payroll periods and payslip data. FreeAgent's payroll API is read-only, so Vergo does not create or alter payroll records.

Can Vergo handle employee reimbursements for FreeAgent Payroll customers?

Yes. Claims, receipts, policy checks and approvals happen in Vergo, and approved reimbursements are prepared in the format FreeAgent expects for the relevant pay period and employee.

What data moves between Vergo and FreeAgent Payroll?

Vergo reads payroll periods by year and payslip data through FreeAgent's documented endpoints, and prepares an approved reimbursement figure per employee per period in FreeAgent's expected structure.

How is the FreeAgent Payroll connection set up?

FreeAgent publishes a public API and access is self-serve, so Vergo connects directly. Nothing is installed, no partner application is needed, and your team does not have to provision anything.

Does FreeAgent Payroll have a reimbursement API?

FreeAgent's published payroll API is read-only RTI data — payroll periods and payslips — with mark-as-paid the only documented write. No dedicated reimbursement endpoint is documented, which is why Vergo works in the import format instead.
