Integrating Perkbox with your existing systems helps you save time, reduce manual admin and give employees a smoother sign-in experience.
Perkbox uses WorkOS, a trusted third-party integration platform, to securely connect with your people directory and your company authentication method.
With these integrations in place, your employee details stay up to date automatically and employees can sign in using the same credentials they already use at work.
What is WorkOS?
WorkOS is a third-party platform that powers Perkbox integrations.
It allows Perkbox to securely connect with your existing systems, such as your HR platform or identity provider, so information can flow automatically between them.
Using WorkOS means integrations are reliable, secure and easy to maintain, without ongoing manual effort from your team.
