Case Study: Holiday Inn Express boosts employee financial wellness and retention with ZayZoon Wages On-Demand

Holiday Inn Express - Customer Case Study

Neema Hospitality, which operates multiple Holiday Inn Express locations, needed a competitive benefit to improve recruiting and retention and to support staff who were often living paycheck to paycheck. They partnered with ZayZoon to offer Wages On-Demand and broader Financial Wellness tools so employees could access earned pay earlier and reduce financial stress.

ZayZoon’s Wages On-Demand lets Holiday Inn Express employees withdraw earned wages on demand, helping them avoid late fees and penalty charges and giving them greater financial flexibility and peace of mind; employees reported that being able to “hit a button” to access pay made a huge difference. By implementing ZayZoon, the employer provided a tangible benefit aligned with industry needs—addressing the wider problem that 78% of U.S. workers live paycheck to paycheck and 68% say finances affect their wellbeing—while improving employee retention and satisfaction.
