Paycor + Nectar Integration

Sync employee data from Paycor into Nectar automatically to streamline recognition, rewards, and engagement programs.

Keep your employee information aligned across payroll, HR, and culture — without manual uploads or spreadsheet management.

Overview

The Paycor + Nectar integration connects your HR and payroll system directly to Nectar, ensuring accurate employee data powers your recognition and rewards programs.

This integration is ideal for:

• HR teams using Paycor as their system of record
• Mid-sized organizations managing workforce growth
• People Ops teams looking to reduce manual admin work

By integrating Paycor with Nectar, companies can automatically provision new hires, maintain accurate org structure, and streamline offboarding — all without manual file uploads.

How It Works

Nectar integrates with Paycor to sync core employee information into the platform.

What data syncs

Common employee fields include:

• First and last name
• Work email
• Department
• Job title
• Manager relationships
• Location
• Employment status (active/inactive)

Sync behavior

• Employees added in Paycor can be automatically provisioned in Nectar
• Updates to roles, departments, or managers sync to maintain accurate reporting
• Terminated employees can be automatically deactivated in Nectar

Authentication method

The integration connects securely via API-based authentication with authorized admin credentials.

Where users interact

Admins configure and manage the integration within Nectar’s settings. Employees use Nectar as usual — recognizing peers, redeeming rewards, and participating in engagement initiatives — powered by synced HR data behind the scenes.
