Merge takes charge of the entire lifecycle of integrations and adds new platforms every week.

Data Transfer
What data will be transferred?
Merge currently supports fetching employee, employment, location, team, and time-off data from Personio and inputting it into another system.
For employees, Merge fetches:
- Name
- Personio-generated IDs
- Profile pictures
- Date of birth
- Employment status
- Gender
- Hire date
- Last name
- Marital status
- Personal email
- Termination date
- Work email
- Work location
It is ultimately up to the Personio partner or the vendor building the integration to decide what data from Personio they want to pull, but this is the list of possible options.
Merge offers filtering for the following:
- created_after and created_before (when the employee was created in Personio)
- manager_id
- team_id
- work_location_id
- modified_after and modified_before (in Personio)
It is up to the Personio partner to decide whether they want to use the filters that Merge provides and / or support additional filtering. For information (for prospective partners) on how to apply these filters within Merge, you can refer to Merge's docs.
What are the Costs?
There is no cost for using Merge for Personio customers. Personio customers benefit for free if their vendors integrate with Personio using Merge.
For prospective Personio partners who are looking to integrate with Personio and are considering using Merge to power their integrations, Merge offers two pricing plans - pay as you go and an enterprise scale plan, depending on the specific business needs.
