How Virtuous Streamlined Commission-to-Payroll with QuotaPath and Rippling

After using QuotaPath to manage commissions for four years, Virtuous took the next step: integrating with Rippling to close the loop from commission calculation to payroll. The result? Fewer errors, faster pay runs, and complete peace of mind.

The Challenge: Closing the Loop with Payroll

QuotaPath already brought clarity and structure to Virtuous’s commission tracking, making it easier to manage payouts at scale. But when it came time to process payroll, Joan still took extra steps to ensure accuracy.

“I was triple-checking everything from QuotaPath to Rippling—you never want to get payroll wrong,” Joan said.

While commissions were calculated with confidence, syncing those payouts into Rippling introduced additional manual work. Joan saw an opportunity to reduce risk and save time by connecting the two systems more directly.

The Solution: A Direct Line from Commission to Payroll

When QuotaPath launched its Rippling integration in winter 2025, Joan joined the beta program to help bring the process full circle.

“It was a no-brainer,” she said. “It only made sense to have these systems communicate.”

Realizing how much time was saved with this integration, Joan and her team incorporated even more commission structures into QuotaPath that had been managed manually previously. 

Now, the entire payout process for teams on comp plans could be centralized, automated, and audit-ready.

And with QuotaPath’s new Payroll page, Joan gained a detailed record of exactly what was sent to Rippling, when, and for how much.

“Thanks to the Rippling integration, I’m confident our payouts are accurate and faster. No more triple checks.”

Implementation: Seamless with Hands-On Support

Because Virtuous joined during the beta phase, Joan had direct support during the integration setup.

“We had a few issues with duplicate users, which were more related to SSO or old HubSpot records. But once we sorted that out, everything just worked,” Joan said, noting her appreciation for the responsiveness of the QuotaPath team through implementation and beyond.

ROI: Time Saved and Errors Avoided

“It’s saving me probably a half hour each pay run,” Joan confirmed.

Beyond time savings, Joan saw the value in reduced risk and increased accuracy. 

The integration eliminated the need for spreadsheets and manual exports, minimizing errors that can derail trust in the payroll process.

“I really like the Payroll page that shows everything has been sent. There’s a clear record of the amount and whether it was entered into Rippling,” Joan said. 

Why Joan Recommends the Integration

“Absolutely, I’d recommend it,” Joan said. “It’s so easy to use with Rippling, and it gives you a clear payroll record in QuotaPath.”

She also praised QuotaPath’s approach to feedback, noting how her suggestions during beta directly influenced product improvements like the bulk-send feature.

“One of the best reasons for using QuotaPath is how quickly you update existing features, add new ones, and respond to feedback,” Joan said. “That includes the Rippling integration. I’m sure you’ll continue to make it even more helpful.”

In Joan’s Words: Complete Confidence

“Thanks to the Rippling integration, I’m confident our payouts are accurate and faster. No more triple checks.”
