About PTO Exchange:

It all started with an idea… 'Wouldn't it be great to be able to use some of your unused vacation time to help pay for your vacation? Then you could take a nicer vacation than you would otherwise have been able to afford?'

Did you know that paid leave is the most common employee benefit in the private sector (according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics). Yet, more than 429 million days go unused every year, amounting to $84 billion in lost earnings to employees.

PTO Exchange is redefining the meaning of earned paid time off (PTO) by providing employers a platform that unlocks the accrued PTO benefit for employees to share with co-workers in need, donate to nonprofits, contribute to their 401(k), HSA, or even exchange for goods and services. Did you say, 'Wow, huh, what?' This type of benefit can help attract and retain employees while reducing PTO liabilities for employers.

Employers add value to their benefits and programs by offering choice and flexibility to their employees. We have developed a software solution that provides a flexible platform for employers and employees to manage their accrued time off.

We are looking for intelligent, capable, energetic, and passionate team members who are not afraid to speak up, step up, and help us grow to our potential and yours.
