StablePay gives enterprise businesses a single, programmable layer for the entire payroll lifecycle. From onboarding payees and verifying identities to scheduling payrolls and tracking disbursements in real time, every operation is available through a clean REST API secured by your API key.

Quickstart

Make your first API call in minutes. Authenticate, list your payees, and fetch a payroll with a few simple requests.

Authentication

Learn how to generate API keys and pass them securely as Bearer tokens on every request.

What you can build

  • Automated payroll runs — schedule and trigger payrolls programmatically on any cadence, eliminating manual processing.
  • Multi-recipient disbursements — pay contractors, vendors, or employees in bulk from a single API call.
  • Real-time payment tracking — poll or receive webhooks for every status change, from initiated to settled.
  • Payee self-service flows — invite payees via email, then let them complete KYC and bank linking on their own schedule.
  • Custom reporting pipelines — pull payroll and transaction data directly into your data warehouse or BI tooling.

Get up and running

Sign up for a StablePay account

Create your enterprise account at stablepay.com. Once your account is approved, you’ll have access to the StablePay dashboard.

Grab your API key

In the dashboard, navigate to Settings → API Keys and generate a new key. Copy it somewhere safe — you won’t be able to view it again after closing the dialog.

Make your first API call

Pass your key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header and call GET /v1/enterprise/me to confirm authentication is working. Follow the Quickstart for a step-by-step walkthrough.

Go live

Swap your test key (sk_test_...) for a live key (sk_live_...), complete any required compliance steps in the dashboard, and start processing real payrolls.
