As part of this release, your account has been upgraded to the new Rise experience, delivering improved payment accuracy, document management, and a more streamlined user experience across key workflows.

Rise Platform Upgrade

We are excited to announce that your Rise account has been upgraded to our new and improved platform. This upgrade brings a better experience, enhanced security, and new features to help you manage your payments seamlessly.

Your Account

  • Your account information and history have been carried over to the new platform

  • You will need to complete a few quick steps to activate your account on your first login

  • If you were invited to join Rise but had not yet set up your account, your invitation has been carried over — you can now sign up and get started directly on the new platform

Security & Authentication

  • Rise now uses Passkey for secure payment authorization, replacing the Rise Security Key (RSK)

  • If you had an active RSK or Web3 wallet, it has been carried over and will continue to work

  • Setting up a Passkey is quick and adds an extra layer of security to your account

Transaction History

  • Your full transaction history is available in the Legacy Tab on the new platform

  • All your past payments and withdrawals are accessible as before

Payments & Withdrawals

  • Your withdrawal accounts have been carried over

  • Your withdrawal tier limits remain unchanged

What Do You Need To Do?

Depending on where you were in your account setup, here is what to expect on your first login:

  • Invited but have not signed up yet — Sign up on the new platform and you will see your invitation from your employer waiting for you

  • Identity verification not completed — You will be asked to complete identity verification to activate your account

  • Identity verification completed — You will be asked to set up a Passkey to activate your account

  • Fully set up with RSK or Web3 wallet — Setting up a Passkey is optional — your existing auth method is ready to use

  • Web3 wallet connected but never used — Your wallet was not carried over — you will be asked to set up a Passkey instead

For Newly Invited Users

If you received an invitation from your employer to join Rise but had not yet created your account, here is what to expect:

  • Visit the new Rise platform via the link in your invitation or migration email

  • Complete the signup process on the new platform

  • Your employer's invitation will be waiting for you — accept it to get started

  • Complete identity verification to activate your account

  • Set up a Passkey to authorize payments securely

If you have any questions or run into any issues after the upgrade, our support team is here to help.

✨New Feature

  • Bulk Document Download

    • The Documents tab now supports bulk document management:

      • Select individual or multiple documents

      • Use Select All for the current result set

      • Download selected documents in a single action as a ZIP file

      • View selection counts and download status directly in the interface

    • This significantly reduces the effort required to manage and export large document libraries.

  • Duplicate Payment Detection

    • To help prevent accidental duplicate payments, the platform now checks for recent payments with matching:

      • Payer

      • Payee

      • Payment amount

      • Payment timing

    • When potential duplicates are detected during Batch CSV payments, users are alerted and provided with a downloadable reference file to review and resolve duplicate entries before submission.

🛠️Improvements

  • Batch Payment CSV Export

    • Enhanced Batch Payment CSV exports to include all eligible contractors, regardless of team size. Previously, exports could be limited to the first set of returned results.

  • Payroll Preferences Guidance

    • Improved the Payroll Preferences experience by providing clearer guidance when required onboarding steps have not yet been completed. Users are now informed before attempting to save settings that depend on completed tax onboarding information.

  • One-Time Variable Compensation

    • Applied UI refinements to the One-Time Variable Compensation panel to improve usability and consistency.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Account History

    • Fixed an issue where search and filter selections persisted when switching between teams, causing confusing blank results. Filters now reset appropriately or remain clearly visible when active.

  • Pay Statements

    • Fixed an issue where one-time bonuses were grouped incorrectly within compensation sections, resulting in inaccurate categorization and Year-to-Date calculations on PDF pay statements.

  • Batch Payments

    • Improved export reliability and data completeness for contractor payment CSV downloads.
