Overview
Unsaddl lets employers set up education benefits — direct student loan contributions, tuition reimbursement for approved courses, and 529 plan contributions — and also covers leave of absence management. An employer designs a plan, syncs its employee roster by SFTP feed or CSV upload, and employees sign in to enrol. The product handles verification, approvals and payments, with payroll and HRIS connections.
