Can’t wait to see these new features in action? Check out this quick demo—then log into Oyster to try them out yourself!

Okta SSO Integration: Ensure secure access from anywhere

When managing a distributed team, the last thing you want to deal with is a data breach. Thanks to our new Okta integration, you can have total confidence knowing that the right users—and only the right users—can securely access your Oyster account, wherever they sign in from.

With SSO login enabled, admin users and team managers will be able to access Oyster using the same credentials they use to access other tools in their Okta dashboard. You can also enable multi-factor authentication within Okta for extra security. And it only takes a few easy steps to get started!


Hiring Templates: Speed up your hiring process

Filling out the same values for new Team Members over and over again? We’ve got something that will help you save loads of time when bringing on new talent.

Cue: Our new hiring templates! You can create them for different departments, seniority levels, and more. Then set default values for things like vacation, allowances, equipment, and probation to keep your hiring process consistent. Give it a try!


Netsuite & Expensify Integrations:Streamline invoices and reimbursements

Say hello to our newest integrations, and goodbye to repetitive work and data entry errors!

Imagine this: Every time you approve an invoice in Oyster, it automatically appears in your ERP. Well, Oracle Netsuite is one of the most popular ERP systems out there—and now you can sync important payroll data to your Netsuite ERP in just one click!


Then, zoom through expenses with our new Expensify integration. You’ll only have to submit and approve expenses once—we’ll automatically pull approved expenses from Expensify and reimburse them through our payroll, ensuring Team Members get reimbursed on time.


What else is new?

✍️ Get e-signatures with ease: You can now sign and request electronic signatures via DocuSign and get new Team Members up and running quicker than ever before. Note: E-signature is currently not available for all markets, but we’ll be adding more very soon!

📑 Make changes to contracts in just a few clicks: Whether you need to process salary changes or contract extensions, we’ve made it even easier to quickly update and manage contracts for your full-time Team Members and contractors.
