Reverse Billing with BioSyn's Mobile App
What is Reverse Billing?
Reverse Billing allows your employees using the BioSyn app to clock in with no data usage being charged to their mobile phone bill. Instead, the cost is covered by your company. This way, your employees won’t have to worry about using their own data for work-related tasks.
