HireX Co., Ltd. has been selected as a new resident company for the '2025 Seoul Fintech Lab'. HireX is scheduled to move into Seoul Fintech Lab, a fintech-specialized incubator located in Yeouido, Seoul, in May.
HireX provides functions such as work attendance management, work instructions, and various payroll settlement methods for short-term and ultra-short-term workers through its representative service, 'Walkie Dokey'. The service is used by over 10,000 workplaces and 60,000 workers, and adopts a monthly subscription-based SaaS (Software as a Service) model. Customized rates are applied to corporate customers such as franchise headquarters.
In particular, 'Walkie Dokey' is evaluated as a practical solution that responds to the changing labor market by providing functions optimized for a flexible work environment, such as checklist-based work management and same-day and weekly pay settlement. HireX has expanded its fintech service area through collaboration with financial institutions, such as registering with Woori Bank's 'Biz Friends' channel and Shinhan Card's 'Biz Plan'.
In addition, HireX has proven its technological prowess and growth potential by being selected for a number of major financial startup incubation programs, including IBK Changgong, Shinhan Futures Lab, Woori Bank Dino Lab, and Hana Bank and SK Telecom's AI accelerator.
It is also taking active steps in terms of global expansion. HireX is participating in the 'Japanese Entry & Scale-up Support Project' jointly operated by the Small and Medium Business Administration and Shinhan Futures Japan, and in 2024, it is conducting a technology verification (POC) with Japan's largest karaoke chain 'Joy Sound' through the Japan Open Innovation Program.
“A fast and transparent payroll system for gig workers is not just a matter of convenience, but a matter of fundamental rights,” said Kwon Min-jae, CEO of HireX. “We will contribute to creating a fairer and more efficient work environment through fintech technology.”
