SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe LLP is investigating a data breach that led to unauthorized access to the sensitive information of individuals affiliated with PayActiv, Inc. ("PayActiv"), a California-based financial services company that provides earned wage access.

On August 19, 2025, PayActiv identified suspicious activity on its network. PayActiv learned that an unauthorized actor gained access to sensitive information on its systems between April 3, 2025, and August 20, 2025.
