What the Rippling +

Pinpoint

 Integration Does

  • Hire data transfer: Accepted offers in Pinpoint trigger new employee record creation in Rippling, flowing candidate and compensation data automatically.
  • Payroll and benefits triggering: Hire events from Pinpoint initiate Rippling's onboarding workflow — payroll enrollment, benefits elections, and IT provisioning.
  • Role and compensation mapping: Job title, department, and compensation data from the Pinpoint offer flow into Rippling's corresponding employee record fields.
  • Multi-entity support: Hires for different legal entities can be routed to the correct Rippling entity automatically based on the Pinpoint job's company or location field.

What Mid-Market Teams Get Wrong

  • Not confirming the trigger stage: The handoff stage in Pinpoint needs to be explicitly defined; triggering too early creates Rippling records for candidates who haven't actually accepted.
  • Not mapping all required Rippling fields: Rippling requires specific fields — start date, pay type, pay rate, work location — to be populated correctly from Pinpoint data for onboarding to proceed without errors.
  • Assuming Pinpoint field names match Rippling's defaults: Field alignment needs to be confirmed explicitly during setup rather than assumed from similar-sounding field names.
  • Not testing with a live offer before go-live: A test hire through the full workflow confirms that Rippling's onboarding triggers actually fire correctly from the Pinpoint event.

How thePeopleStack Configures This

We map Pinpoint's offer and candidate fields to Rippling's employee record structure, defining the exact hire stage in Pinpoint that triggers the Rippling record creation and onboarding workflow.

We validate the integration with a test offer and hire before go-live, confirming that payroll enrollment, benefits elections, and IT provisioning trigger correctly and that compensation data maps accurately.

USA & Canadian Operations Note

Pinpoint is used by US and UK mid-market companies wanting a modern, clean ATS with strong career site and employer branding features.

Canadian and cross-border operations: For companies hiring into Canadian entities through Pinpoint, we ensure the hire data routes to the correct Rippling entity and that Canadian-specific fields are mapped correctly.

FAQs

How does Pinpoint send hire data to Rippling?

When a candidate accepts an offer and reaches the designated hire stage in Pinpoint, their data transfers to Rippling, creating the employee record and triggering onboarding.

Does compensation data from Pinpoint flow into Rippling?

Yes — offer compensation data from Pinpoint maps to Rippling's pay rate and role fields, so the new employee record reflects the agreed package without manual re-entry.

Can hires for different entities route to the correct Rippling entity automatically?

Yes — the integration can be configured to route hire records to the correct Rippling entity based on the job's company or location field in Pinpoint.

Is there anything Pinpoint doesn't send that Rippling still needs?

Work location for tax purposes and specific payroll fields sometimes need supplementation after the hire event; we identify and document any such gaps during configuration so they can be addressed in the onboarding workflow.

How long does configuration take?

A standard Pinpoint-to-Rippling integration setup typically takes 2–4 hours.
