Smarter, more valuable annual bonuses with Keep Financial

Annual bonuses are typically paid months after the fiscal year. While they’re often associated with company performance and a limited set of employee metrics, this “significantly after the fact” approach to a performance bonus makes it hard to motivate employees in the moment and build towards an annual goal.

Make your annual bonuses count all year long and give employees early access to portions of their annual bonus during the fiscal year. Keep bonuses ensure that employees stick around until the normal bonus payment date - and beyond.

Looking to get the most out of your annual bonus compensation? Keep offers a free 3-day bonus audit to assess areas in need of improvement.

How It Works

“Release” portions of annual bonus payments during the fiscal year based on actual performance
Set performance objectives for successive annual bonus payment releases
Tie each bonus payment release to an obligation, required by the employee, to remain employed until the ordinary bonus payment date (e.g. March 1st of the following calendar year)
The retention period may be extended further to recognize the benefit of early access to annual bonus payments
Early access to annual bonus payments enable employees to save, invest, and accomplish personal goals earlier
