One Click. Global Payroll Meets Real-Time Accounting.

Connecting Deel and Puzzle just changed the way companies handle accounting forever.

Setting up accounting from payroll used to take hours, manually posting payroll entries, classifying contractors and employees, and reconciling line items. Now it takes one click.

With the new Deel × Puzzle one-click setup and  integration, startups can automatically sync global payroll and contractor data directly into Puzzle’s real-time general ledger—no spreadsheets, no manual journal entries, no guesswork, no more silos.

One-Click Setup. Zero Manual Work.

When you connect Puzzle to Deel, the system instantly recognizes every person in Deel—whether they’re a full-time employee, contractor, or EOR hire—and creates the right record in Puzzle’s People dashboard automatically.

From there, everything stays in sync:

• Auto-identify and map people: Puzzle detects each contract type from Deel and sets up matching profiles for employees and contractors.
  
  
• Payroll entries posted automatically: Every time payroll runs in Deel, Puzzle creates detailed journal entries in your ledger—no manual posting or data imports.
  
  
• Smart metrics unlocked: Puzzle doesn’t just record numbers; it brings them to life. You’ll see average salary, total people costs, and cash impact update in real time across your dashboards.
  
  
• Bank syncs handled automatically: Once payroll is debited, Puzzle reconciles it instantly with your bank feed.
  
  
• Full-detail data, not summaries: Unlike QuickBooks or legacy tools that post summary totals, Puzzle leverages every data point from Deel—invoice details, payment breakdowns, fees—so your metrics, books, and people analytics are all connected.
  
  

The result? Payroll accounting that’s live, accurate, and entirely hands-free.

Why This Integration Matters

Until now, global payroll and accounting lived in silos. Finance teams manually exported payroll data, summarized it, and re-entered journal entries each month, especially painful for startups and SMBs managing distributed teams across currencies and compliance rules.

This integration fixes that.

Deel used Puzzle’s Developer API to unified payroll infrastructure, your global payroll now syncs directly to your accounting system, automatically mapped, categorized, and reconciled—in real time.

What used to take hours of manual posting now happens automatically in the background—freeing founders and finance teams to focus on strategy, not spreadsheets.

For Startups & SMB’s, It’s a Game-Changer

Deel customers have already seen how Puzzle’s first generation API made their payroll and accounting workflows effortless. Now, thanks to Puzzle’s new developer API, we’re bringing that value to every Deel user with a deeper, more powerful integration. The result: fully automated payroll-to-financials, delivered instantly, with (investor-ready) insights to improve financial health.

This integration now gives Deel customers the automation and real-time visibility they’ve been missing, with the same simplicity and speed they expect from Deel.
