Zenefits + Nectar Integration
Sync employee data from Zenefits into Nectar automatically to power seamless recognition, rewards, and engagement programs.
Keep employee profiles accurate across HR and culture systems — without manual uploads or administrative overhead.
Overview
The Zenefits + Nectar integration connects your HRIS directly to Nectar, ensuring employee information stays accurate and up to date across your recognition and rewards platform.
This integration is ideal for:
- HR and People Ops teams using Zenefits as their system of record
- Growing organizations that want to streamline onboarding and engagement
- Companies scaling culture programs without adding manual admin work
By integrating Zenefits with Nectar, companies can automatically provision new hires, reflect employee updates, and maintain clean access during offboarding — all while keeping recognition programs aligned with real-time HR data.
How It Works
Nectar integrates with Zenefits to sync key employee profile information into the platform.
What data syncs
Common employee fields include:
- First and last name
- Work email
- Job title
- Department
- Manager relationships
- Location
- Employment status (active/inactive)
Sync behavior
- New hires added in Zenefits can be automatically provisioned in Nectar
- Updates to roles, departments, or managers stay aligned for accurate reporting
- Employees who leave the organization can be automatically deactivated in Nectar
Authentication method
The integration connects securely through API-based authentication using authorized admin credentials.
Where users interact
Admins configure the integration inside Nectar settings. Employees continue using Nectar normally — recognizing peers, redeeming rewards, and participating in engagement initiatives — powered by synced HR data behind the scenes.
