Inbal said the NickNack team is very excited to start working with Papaya’s team, watching Papaya perform in hypergrowth as one of the world’s foremost experts in global workforce solutions.

“When we started the journey with NickNack, mid-pandemic and the global quarantine, we had a big vision that quickly resonated with our investors and customers. This acquisition will enable us to deliver faster and to a greater audience,” Inbal added. “Integrating with a market leader that understands the importance of employee engagement and onboarding delivers a win-win.”
