What is Express Report / Pay?
Express Report / Pay is the fastest way for employers to report payroll or pay their insurance premium — no login required.

Think of it like paying a utility bill online: no account needed, just your policy number and you're done. It uses the same validation engine as the full portal, so accuracy is identical.
