SB 410 Kansas Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Providing that earned wage access service registrants are subject to the Kansas financial institutions information security act.

SB 410 expands Kansas' financial institutions information security law to require earned wage access service providers to comply with cybersecurity standards. It adds "earned wage access service registrants" to the list of covered entities - like credit services and mortgage companies - that must follow the state's information security rules. This means companies offering early access to earned wages (e.g., via apps or payroll services) must now implement security measures to protect customer data. The bill directly affects these providers by mandating adherence to existing cybersecurity requirements under Kansas law. The change applies to all such registrants operating in Kansas, aligning them with other financial service entities.
