Atomic is a payroll and financial connectivity platform. Through user-permissioned access to payroll, HR, and merchant accounts, Atomic lets applications switch direct deposit, verify income and employment, retrieve payroll data, and update payment methods on file. The Transact SDK is an embedded, hosted front-end that drives these workflows on top of Atomic's backend REST API.
