Benefits
Salary Advance
A lump sum paid ahead of payday and recovered from future salary.
A salary advance is an amount paid to an employee before payday, then deducted from upcoming pay over one or more periods. Unlike EWA, it isn't limited to wages already earned and is typically approved case by case.
