A payroll connection is separate from a bank connection. While a bank connection pulls balances and transactions, a payroll connection pulls your employment and pay data: employer, pay schedule, gross/net pay, deductions, taxes, and pay stubs. You can have both - and on the free plan, the payroll slot is separate from the bank slot.

​
How to connect payroll

On the web (app.mytruv.com) - open Connections from the sidebar. In the Add Connection section, choose the Payroll card and sign in to your payroll provider through the Truv widget.On iOS - go to Settings → Connections, tap Add new, and choose Payroll. You can also tap the “There’s more to your pay than deposits” banner on the Income screen - it opens the same flow.
After you sign in, MyTruv starts pulling your recent pay periods. The first sync usually appears within a few seconds.

​
What you unlock

A payroll connection adds detailed pay data on top of what bank deposits already show:
  • Gross vs. net pay - what you actually earned vs. what hit your bank account
  • Deductions - taxes (federal, state, FICA), insurance, retirement contributions, other withholdings
  • Employer info - company name, role, pay schedule, tenure
  • Pay statements - downloadable pay stubs (provider-dependent)
For details on how to read this data, see:

​
Free vs Pro plan

  • Free plan - 1 payroll connection (separate from the 1 bank connection slot)
  • Pro plan - unlimited connections of both types
If you have multiple jobs, Pro is what you need to connect them all.

​
Refreshing payroll data

On the web, payroll connections don’t have a manual Refresh button, and the Sync All button on the Connections page only syncs bank connections. Payroll data syncs automatically on a backend schedule when your provider posts a new pay period.On iOS, you can pull down to refresh on the Income screen to pick up newly synced pay periods.

​
Managing a payroll connection

Once connected, a payroll connection lives alongside your bank connections and you manage it the same way:
If your employer’s payroll provider isn’t supported, MyTruv still tracks your income from bank deposits - you just won’t see gross-vs-net, deductions, or pay stubs until a payroll connection is added.
