A Guide to Seamlessly Integrate Human Interest with Gusto

Managing the election and funding of retirement accounts is an important administrative task for HR professionals. GoCo and Human Interest have partnered to offer a 360° 401(k) sync for embedded payroll customers that makes the task hands-off and worry-free by streamlining the payroll processes and ensuring that retirement accounts are funded consistently and accurately.

  • GoCo will send Human Interest payroll data to fund Human Interest 401(k) accounts.

    • Human Interest uses this data to ensure your team members' accounts are funded based on what was deducted from payroll.

  • GoCo will send Human Interest a year-to-date funding report from payroll.

    • Human Interest uses this data to ensure accurate funding and keep your company and team members' compliant with retirement funding regulations.

Configuring Company Contributions 

When deciding whether a company will contribute to retirement plans, Gusto embedded payroll users can choose from options to establish company matching rules, which may include additional tiers for contributions. They'll also be able to add a Company Annual Maximum Contribution.
