TrackerHero and Setlary Malaysia Formalise MoU to Integrate Earned Wage Access Through MesraHR

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA — 27 AUGUST 2026 — TrackerHero and Setlary Malaysia have formalised a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at the National Innovation and Commercialisation Expo (NICE) 2026, strengthening their collaboration to deliver integrated digital solutions for workforce and payroll management.

Held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC), the MoU formalisation was witnessed by YB Datuk Chang Lih Kang, Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI).

Through this collaboration, MesraGaji, an Earned Wage Access (EWA) solution, has been integrated with the MesraHR platform. The integration connects digital attendance and payroll data to enable employees to access a portion of their earned wages before the regular payday, while helping employers streamline payroll-related processes.

Connecting Workforce Data with Earned Wage Access

Traditional payroll processes generally operate around fixed pay cycles. Employees work throughout the month and receive their wages according to a predetermined payroll schedule.

Earned Wage Access (EWA) provides a more flexible approach by allowing eligible employees to access a portion of their earned wages before the regular payday. For this model to work effectively, accurate and timely workforce and payroll data are essential.

The integration of THPatrol with MesraHR and MesraGaji creates a more connected digital ecosystem, particularly for security operations. THPatrol enables employers to monitor the attendance and workforce activity of security personnel on site, providing more accurate attendance data that can be integrated with MesraHR for payroll processing.

With workforce attendance data connected to payroll information, MesraHR can support more efficient payroll calculation, while MesraGaji enables eligible employees to access their earned wages before payday.

This creates a connected flow from on-site attendance monitoring, payroll processing and earned wage access, reducing the need to manage these functions separately.

Instead of treating attendance, payroll and employee financial access as separate processes, employers can manage them through a more connected and transparent digital ecosystem.

What the Integration Means for Employees

For employees, the integration provides greater flexibility in accessing wages they have already earned.

This can be particularly useful for employees whose financial needs do not always follow a fixed monthly schedule. Through the integrated system, eligible employees can access earned wages based on verified attendance and payroll information, while the employer’s existing payroll structure remains in place.

The solution is designed to give employees more control and flexibility over their earned income without requiring changes to the organisation’s regular payroll cycle.

What the Integration Means for Employers and HR Teams

The benefits also extend to employers, HR teams and payroll administrators.

Managing attendance records, payroll calculations and employee information across disconnected systems can create additional administrative work and increase the risk of manual errors.

With MesraGaji integrated into MesraHR, workforce and payroll data can be managed through a more unified process. This helps reduce manual reconciliation, improve data visibility and support more efficient payroll administration.

The integration also enables HR teams to spend less time managing repetitive administrative tasks and more time focusing on broader workforce management priorities.

A More Connected Workforce Management Experience

The integration between MesraGaji and MesraHR reflects the growing demand for connected digital workforce solutions.

As organisations continue to adopt digital tools for attendance, workforce management and payroll, integrating these functions becomes increasingly important. A connected system allows different parts of the employee lifecycle to work together more efficiently and provides organisations with better visibility across their workforce operations.

By bringing earned wage access into the MesraHR platform, the integrated solution connects workforce data with employee financial flexibility while supporting employers with more streamlined HR and payroll processes.

From Collaboration to Implementation

The formalisation of the MoU at NICE 2026 marks an important milestone in the collaboration between TrackerHero and Setlary Malaysia.

With the integration now in place, both parties can focus on supporting organisations in adopting a more connected approach to workforce and payroll management. The solution is designed to create practical value for employers, HR teams and employees by improving process efficiency and providing greater flexibility in accessing earned wages.

Further developments and implementation updates will be shared as the collaboration progresses.

Building the Future of Work Together

The collaboration between TrackerHero and Setlary Malaysia represents more than a formal partnership. It reflects a shared commitment to developing practical technology solutions that respond to the changing needs of today’s workforce.

By integrating earned wage access with digital HR and workforce management, both parties are contributing to a more connected, flexible and digitally enabled workplace ecosystem.

TrackerHero looks forward to working alongside Setlary Malaysia and its partners to help organisations improve workforce visibility, streamline payroll processes and provide employees with greater financial flexibility.

Together, we continue to build a better-connected future of work.
