How does FX cost affect enterprise EOR budgets?

An undisclosed FX margin in the 1.5 to 3% industry range across a large enterprise headcount adds up to six figures annually. Teamed absorbs FX at zero markup and shows the rate against mid-market on every invoice. Remote shows the rate after the fact. G-P, Deel, Rippling, Papaya and Pebl publish no FX terms. At enterprise scale, FX transparency is a finance governance requirement.

Does Globalization Partners publish EOR pricing?

No. G-P's EOR pricing is fully quote-only. Two named tiers: G-P EOR Core (AI assistant for base support) and G-P EOR Prime (dedicated CSM, quarterly reviews, direct HR/legal access). Contractor product: $39 per contractor per month. Third-party reviews report a pre-funding model of roughly one to two months of salary per employee, not on G-P's pages.

How does enterprise EOR differ from standard EOR?

Enterprise EOR adds requirements at scale: certifications for procurement reviews (SOC 2, ISO 27001), named HRIS connectors (Workday, SAP, Oracle), dedicated account governance with SLAs, FX transparency across large salary corridors, and a path from EOR to owned entities. Several providers that work well for small teams show gaps at enterprise scale on these dimensions.

Which EOR integrates with Workday or SAP for enterprise?

Rippling leads with 600+ integrations on one employee graph. Papaya Global has named Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM and NetSuite connectors with a self-serve mapping layer. Deel and Remote cover most enterprise stacks. Teamed plugs into your existing HRIS stack. If a named connector is a procurement gate, ask for a live demo before shortlisting.

How current is this comparison, and how was it scored?

Figures verified 17 June 2026, security certifications re-checked 22 July 2026. Eight providers scored 1 to 5 on six enterprise-focused axes, no overall winner. Where pricing is unpublished (G-P, Rippling on primary pages), we say so. Reviewed quarterly, pricing monthly.

Last reviewed 22 July 2026By Tom Price-Daniel, Co-founder, Teamed

Which EOR provider is best for enterprise companies in 2026?

What is enterprise EOR?

Enterprise EOR is employer-of-record services at the scale and governance complexity large organisations need. Beyond one or two markets, it means managing dozens of jurisdictions from one platform, clearing procurement and security reviews (SOC 2, ISO 27001, audit-ready payroll), integrating with Workday, SAP or Oracle, and managing the FX cost of large salaries across many currency corridors.

FX matters more at scale. An undisclosed margin in the 1.5 to 3% industry range looks trivial on one hire. Across a hundred employees in twenty countries, it adds up to six figures annually. Enterprise EOR buyers also ask two questions the standard comparison skips. First: can a real HR or legal expert handle a contested termination or a complex statutory question in a market you have never hired in before, without routing to an AI assistant? Second: when does EOR stop being the right model, and does the provider tell you proactively, or does it keep billing?

Methodology

How we scored this comparison

Each provider is scored 1 to 5 on six enterprise-focused axes. There's no weighted total and no overall winner. Different providers lead different columns, and Teamed is scored on the same axes as the rest.

Pricing transparency: Whether the all-in cost of an enterprise engagement (the fee, the deposit, onboarding, and offboarding or termination) is stated up front and predictable across a large headcount. Scored on clarity, not on price level: a flat published fee a finance team can forecast beats a lower base with unstated setup, pre-funding, notice and exit terms. The FX margin on large salary conversions across many corridors is one clause of that test, not the whole frame.
Multi-jurisdiction coverage and compliance: Depth and legal robustness of in-country coverage across the many jurisdictions an enterprise hires in at once: the owned-entity versus partner structure behind each market, country-specific employment-law accuracy on contracts, payroll and statutory contributions, audit-ready filings, and how fast a real employment-law expert responds at the hard moments, from a contested termination to a statutory-cap question in a market you have never hired in before.
Platform and self-serve: Product surface, self-serve flows, named enterprise connectors (Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM), API depth, and reporting for a finance team tracking global employment cost across many entities.
Security and certifications: ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II held today: the certifications an enterprise procurement or security review asks to see, checked against each provider on 22 July 2026.
Service model and employment intelligence: Ongoing human employment expertise plus AI assistance across the lifecycle (for Teamed, the Ted layer): whether real HR and legal experts own the hard moments directly at your plan level rather than behind a premium tier, and how well the system flags statutory changes and the crossover point before they reach you.
Path to your own entity: Whether the provider moves you from contractor to EOR to your own legal entity on one system, models the crossover financially as headcount grows, and can set up and run the entity through a service like Global Entity & Employment Operations (GEMO). EOR is not a permanent model for a growing enterprise.

How we gathered evidence

The six axes are pricing transparency, multi-jurisdiction coverage and compliance, platform and self-serve, security and certifications, service model and employment intelligence, and the path to your own entity. Pricing came from each provider's own pricing page on 17 June 2026 (Deel last checked 7 July 2026). Where a provider does not publish EOR pricing (G-P and Rippling on primary pages), we say so. Security reflects each provider's current published ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II status, re-checked 22 July 2026: Velocity Global is now Pebl and carries ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II, and the cert-holders (Deel, Remote, Rippling, Papaya, G-P, Pebl) lead the security axis. Owned-entity or partner status comes from each provider's own pages. Teamed's claims come from teamed.global.

Considered & excluded

We scored the eight providers an enterprise HR or finance team would realistically shortlist when evaluating EOR at scale, from the analyst-decorated incumbents to the advisory and integration-led alternatives.

Multiplier, Native Teams: Positioned for smaller or cost-first buyers, a different enterprise procurement profile than the eight scored.
Payoneer Workforce Management (formerly Skuad), Atlas, RemoFirst: Capable platforms with a thinner enterprise track record than the eight scored.

Teamed

Us, scored on the same rubric

Best for: enterprise teams that want the all-in cost of an EOR stated up front, real HR and legal experts on every plan without AI gating, and a single partner from contractor through EOR to their own managed entity.

Teamed is the advisory EOR built for fast-growing companies with an international footprint. The enterprise case for Teamed is a bill you can read before you sign. The fee is a flat $599 USD or £479 GBP per employee per month, the deposit is one month of salary and refundable, and there are no onboarding or offboarding charges (an early-exit fee may apply if you leave within three months, set out in your contract). It absorbs FX at zero markup on the fee and shows the applied rate against a mid-market reference on every invoice. Across an enterprise headcount in many countries, a predictable all-in number is a material planning advantage.

On coverage and compliance, Teamed owns its own legal entities in 57 countries and covers 187+ countries through those owned entities plus vetted partners, backed by DLA Piper as global counsel. Real HR and legal experts are included on every plan, not gated behind a premium tier, so a contested termination, a statutory-cap question, or a complex consultation in a jurisdiction you have never hired in before goes to those experts directly, with no AI assistant layer in the way. Rated 4.8 on G2 for service.

The technology play is integration, not replacement. Teamed is a focused global-employment platform, not a HRIS, and it plugs into the major HRIS and payroll systems an enterprise already runs, adding the employment-law layer on top. GEMO sets up and runs your own legal entity in 100+ countries on the same system, with no re-onboarding. The crossover from EOR to your own entity is modelled by default: Teamed advises on the right model as your headcount grows and helps you move when EOR stops fitting. That is the founding truth of the business.

Countries: 187+ (57 owned entities, vetted partners elsewhere)
Entity model: Owned entities in 57 markets plus vetted partners, backed by DLA Piper as global counsel; sets up client entities via GEMO in 100+
Onboarding: Expert-guided, with real HR and legal support through the transition
Contractors: Yes, with misclassification cover (Guard and Protect)
Pricing: $599 USD / £479 GBP / employee / month, flat, one-month refundable deposit, FX absorbed at zero markup · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.8/5

Strengths

All-in pricing you can read at scale. A flat $599 USD / £479 GBP per employee per month, a one-month refundable deposit, and no onboarding or offboarding fees. FX is absorbed at zero markup on the fee and shown against the mid-market reference on every invoice, so a finance team can forecast the real bill across many corridors.
Real HR and legal experts on every plan, with jurisdiction-specific depth on edge cases, no AI bot wall and no premium tier to upgrade into. Teamed owns entities in 57 countries and backs them with DLA Piper as global counsel and vetted in-country partners, so real HR and legal experts handle the hard local cases in-house. Rated 4.8 on G2.
One partner from first contractor through EOR to your own entity, on one system. GEMO sets up and runs your entity in 100+ countries. The crossover from EOR to entity is modelled proactively, not left to the client to discover.
Advisory, not just payroll processing. Teamed is built to tell you when the EOR model stops fitting your scale and to help you move on, so you are not held in a model that no longer makes sense.

Watch-outs

Lighter self-serve platform and shallower native integration catalogue than Rippling or Deel. The model is advisory-led, and enterprise teams that want to run hiring inside a unified HRIS platform will find more depth elsewhere. It concedes the platform column here.
ISO 27001 and SOC 2 aligned, with accreditation in progress rather than in hand. Several rivals on this list hold current certifications. A procurement team with a hard certification gate should ask Teamed for a current status letter before shortlisting. It concedes the security column for now.
A smaller brand and review volume than G-P, Deel or Remote. A procurement team that asks for several references from enterprise accounts in regulated sectors will find fewer public case studies.

Globalization Partners (G-P)

Best for: large enterprises where 180+ country reach, the widest owned-entity footprint, a deep certification stack, analyst recognition and Prime-tier governance matter more than published pricing or speed to first hire.

G-P is the analyst-decorated enterprise incumbent and the provider most large-company procurement teams know before they start the process. It markets 180+ country reach, 100+ legal entities and 200+ global partners, with one of the deepest compliance and security certification stacks in the category: ISO 27001, 27017, 27018 and 42001, plus SOC 2 Type II, on a self-serve trust portal. Its G-P EOR Prime tier includes a dedicated CSM, quarterly reviews and direct access to HR and legal teams. (G-P markets itself as the category's leading EOR; we report that as its own claim, not ours.)

The case for G-P in multi-jurisdiction coverage is strong. A large in-country legal and HR team, the widest owned-entity footprint in the category and a long track record in regulated sectors mean procurement and security reviews tend to move fast, which is why it contests the coverage column. The caveat is support tier. Base-tier G-P EOR Core routes day-to-day queries through the G-P Assist AI assistant, and the direct human relationship with a CSM, quarterly reviews and in-house HR and legal access sits on the higher Prime tier. Enterprise buyers who expect that relationship as standard should confirm the Prime tier in the contract before signing.

EOR pricing is quote-only. No per-employee figure appears on any G-P primary page, only a demo request and a proposal CTA. Third-party reviews consistently report a pre-funding model of roughly one to two months of salary per employee, though G-P does not publish that. The contractor product is the only transparent public price at $39 per contractor per month. Against Teamed, you keep the deepest enterprise reach and the strongest certification stack, and you give up cost transparency and a path to your own entity.

Countries: 180+ reach, 100+ legal entities plus 200+ global partners
Entity model: Owned entities in 100+ markets, the widest footprint in the category, plus an extensive vetted partner network
Onboarding: Structured, enterprise-paced; AI assistant on Core tier, direct HR and legal access on Prime
Contractors: Yes, self-serve contractor at $39 per contractor per month
Pricing: Quote-only; no EOR per-employee price published. Contractor: $39 per contractor per month · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.4/5 (1028)

Strengths

Genuine enterprise-grade reach: 180+ countries, 100+ legal entities and 200+ global partners over a long track record with regulated-sector buyers.
One of the deepest certification stacks in the category: ISO 27001, 27017, 27018 and 42001, plus SOC 2 Type II, on a self-serve trust portal. Procurement and security reviews move fast.
Prime-tier governance includes a dedicated CSM, quarterly reviews and direct access to a large in-country HR, legal and compliance team. The people who handle edge cases are in-house, not partners.
A transparent, self-serve contractor product at $39 per contractor per month with AI-powered misclassification checks and Wise-powered contractor payments.

Watch-outs

Publishes no EOR per-employee price on any of its own pages; like-for-like comparison requires a sales call. Third-party reviews report a pre-funding model of roughly one to two months of salary per employee, not on the public pages.
Base-tier G-P EOR Core routes support through the G-P Assist AI assistant. A dedicated CSM, quarterly reviews and direct HR and legal team access are on the G-P EOR Prime tier only. Enterprise buyers should confirm Prime in the contract.
No path from EOR to your own entity. G-P positions EOR as the alternative to running entities, not as one stage on a managed journey toward them.

Rippling

Best for: enterprises that want HR, IT and payroll on one platform and treat EOR as one module of a unified people-and-technology system with 600+ integrations.

Rippling is the integration-first alternative: HRIS, IT management, payroll and EOR on a single employee graph, with 600+ published integrations. For an enterprise already evaluating or running an HRIS and wanting EOR on the same record, Rippling is the obvious shortlist entry, and it leads the platform column alongside Deel. Every approval workflow, policy, device provisioning and payroll run touches the same data. No middleware and no manual sync.

EOR was added as a module to an existing platform rather than built as a pure-play, and the country count reflects that. Rippling's EOR covers 80 countries, materially lower than the dedicated EOR providers at around 180+. EOR pricing is not published on primary pages; the only figure in Rippling's own words is a $499 per employee per month row in a Rippling-owned blog comparison table, plus a separate HR-platform base fee on top. FX terms are not published. Third-party reviews consistently report a security deposit of roughly one to three months of salary, not disclosed on public pages.

The consolidation thesis is the strongest argument for Rippling: if you are buying HR, IT device management and payroll anyway, EOR rides the same employee record. Rippling also publishes a live entity-versus-EOR cost calculator, so the crossover is visible on the same platform. Get the full monthly number in writing, platform base plus EOR fee. Against G-P, you trade enterprise compliance depth and country reach for the most powerful unified people platform on this list.

Countries: 80 for EOR (185+ for contractor payments)
Entity model: Hybrid: Rippling-owned subsidiaries and third-party partners; split not published
Onboarding: Fast, highly automated self-serve; white-glove for enterprise
Contractors: Yes, contractor payments plus Contractor of Record
Pricing: Not published on primary pages; about $499 on a Rippling blog, plus a separate HR-platform base fee · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.8/5

Strengths

The most powerful unified HR, IT and payroll platform here, leading the platform column. Rippling publishes 600+ integrations on one employee graph. Every approval, policy, device and payroll run shares the same employee record.
A live entity-versus-EOR cost calculator on the same platform, plus a distinct Global Payroll product for companies already running their own entities, so the growth journey is visible and modelled.
Published support transparency: rolling 90-day support metrics, human-staffed chat, email and video. It holds one of the broadest certification sets in the category, including ISO 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II, near the top of the security column.
Fast, automated self-serve onboarding measured in minutes and days, suitable for enterprises that want low-touch hiring at volume.

Watch-outs

EOR coverage is 80 countries against roughly 180+ for the dedicated EOR providers. An enterprise hiring in a country Rippling does not cover will need a separate EOR relationship alongside.
EOR pricing is not published on primary pages. The $499 figure comes from a Rippling-owned blog, and a base HR-platform fee sits on top. Third-party reviews report an undisclosed security deposit of roughly one to three months of salary.
Built to consolidate your HR stack, not to serve as a standalone EOR. If your enterprise has no plan to run HR, IT and payroll on one platform, you are paying for more than you need.

Deel

Best for: enterprises that want the broadest all-in-one platform, one of the broadest native integration catalogues and the strongest brand recognition, and will confirm which plan includes dedicated support.

Deel is the market-leading all-in-one global payroll, EOR and HR platform, and the default entry on almost every enterprise shortlist before the procurement process starts. The deepest self-serve product, one of the broadest native integration catalogues and the strongest brand: these are the reasons it clears a procurement shortlist without a single sales conversation, and it leads the platform column alongside Rippling. Pricing starts from $599 per employee per month, and Deel does not publish which plan includes its dedicated Slack or Teams support channel.

The reasons enterprises look past it are consistent. Deel does not publish its FX terms, so the salary-conversion cost is built into the rate rather than shown on an invoice line. At enterprise salary volumes across many currency corridors, that undisclosed margin is a material number. Deel does not publish which plan includes its dedicated Slack or Teams support channel, so enterprises should confirm what their rate includes before contracting. Buyers tell us the total bill can grow once FX is factored in, and reportedly a large upfront deposit was demanded for a long-notice hire in the United Kingdom, though we frame those as buyer reports rather than published Deel terms.

Deel holds ISO 27001 and SOC 2 today, which matters for enterprise procurement and puts it at the top of the security column. Its platform breadth is the bar the rest are measured against, and for an enterprise running contractor, payroll and EOR workforces on one system, it is hard to match on breadth alone. Against Teamed, you keep the broadest platform and the longest enterprise recognition, and you give up a readable FX line and human expert support included on every plan.

Countries: 150-plus reach, full legal employment in 130+ countries
Entity model: A mix of owned entities and vetted partners
Onboarding: Fast, deep self-serve; dedicated onboarding manager not published per plan
Contractors: Yes, mature contractor and misclassification tooling
Pricing: From $599 / employee / month, a starting rate · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.8/5

Strengths

The deepest all-in-one platform and self-serve depth in the category, covering EOR, contractor management, global payroll, equity and HR in one product. The bar the rest are measured against.
One of the broadest native integration catalogues of any provider here. Most enterprise stacks connect without custom work.
The market-leading brand and the longest enterprise recognition. It clears a procurement shortlist on name alone. Holds current ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications, at the top of the security column.
Offers a dedicated Slack or Teams support channel, dedicated onboarding manager and richer tooling for equity, IP and compliance management, though Deel does not publish which plan includes them.

Watch-outs

Does not publish FX terms. The salary-conversion cost is built into the rate rather than shown on the invoice. At enterprise salary volumes across many corridors, the undisclosed margin is a material budget line.
Deel does not publish which plan includes its dedicated Slack or Teams support channel. Enterprise buyers should confirm what their rate includes before contracting.
Buyers report add-on charges and, in one case, a large upfront deposit for a long-notice hire. These are buyer accounts rather than published Deel terms. Enterprise procurement should ask about the deposit model and all-in costs in writing.

Remote

Best for: enterprise teams that want a polished self-serve platform, a strong benefits and IP product, and owned entities in the markets where they hire most.

Remote is the product-led enterprise alternative. It markets an owned-entity network across its 90+ EOR countries, a polished self-serve platform with mature benefits and IP-protection tooling built in, and a published modular price ($599 on annual billing, $699 month to month) that lets you budget without a sales call. Local partners and other products extend total reach to 190+ locations, so the owned-entity story applies to the EOR core, not the full map.

It is more transparent than most on FX, but the disclosure is after the fact. Remote applies a variable Remote FX rate to cross-currency invoice lines and shows the rate used on the monthly invoice, with no published percentage. At enterprise salary volumes across multiple corridors, a variable unknown spread is still a forecast risk. The $599 headline needs annual billing; month to month is $699, so the comparable cost depends on the commitment your enterprise can make. A dedicated onboarding specialist and a named CSM are included on the EOR plan.

The self-serve flows are genuinely enterprise-grade. Benefits administration, IP-protection tooling and a mature Global Payroll product for companies already running their own entities are all in-product. One regulated enterprise buyer we spoke with chose Remote over Teamed specifically because it owns its entities in all its core EOR markets. Against G-P, you trade enterprise certification depth for a more usable product and a published price.

Countries: 190+ locations, 90+ for full owned-entity EOR
Entity model: Owned-entity led in its core 90+ EOR countries, local partners and other products beyond
Onboarding: Dedicated onboarding specialist plus a named CSM on the EOR plan
Contractors: Yes, tiered: from $29 per contractor per month, with indemnity options up to $100,000
Pricing: $599 per employee per month on annual billing ($699 month to month) · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.6/5 (591)

Strengths

An owned-entity-led network across its core 90+ EOR countries. Fewer partner hand-offs in the markets enterprise teams are most likely to hire in, with one accountable employer per country.
A polished self-serve platform with mature benefits administration, IP-protection tooling and a named CSM on the EOR plan. The product experience is the strongest argument for choosing it. It holds current ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications, at the top of the security column.
Published pricing in full: $599 on annual billing, $699 month to month, plus published contractor tiers. No setup, onboarding or offboarding fees on the pricing page. You can budget it without a sales call.
A dedicated onboarding specialist, in-house HR, legal and tax experts, and a Global Payroll product for companies also running their own entities.

Watch-outs

The Remote FX rate is a variable blended rate applied to cross-currency lines and shown on the invoice after the fact, with no published percentage. At enterprise salary volumes across many corridors, a variable unknown spread is a forecast risk.
The $599 rate needs annual billing. Month to month is $699, so the like-for-like comparison depends on the commitment length your enterprise can make.
Owned entities cover the core 90+ EOR markets; beyond them, delivery runs through local partners and other products. Ask which specific countries are owned before contracting.

Papaya Global

Best for: large enterprises consolidating multi-country payroll on one finance-grade backbone across 180+ countries and 130+ payment currencies.

Papaya Global is the payroll-at-scale alternative, built for the finance team running complex global payroll across many countries and currencies. It reaches 180+ countries, runs a strong data and payroll backbone with 130+ payment currencies and a licensed payments subsidiary, and adds named enterprise connectors for Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM and NetSuite. The platform is payments infrastructure as much as HR software, designed to sit alongside an existing enterprise stack.

The EOR base starts from $499 per employee per month on its own pricing page. Most of the EOR footprint is partner-delivered: Papaya owns full EOR entities in only 40 countries against its 180+ country reach. An FX processing fee applies on cross-currency conversion, with no percentage published and country-variable margins supplied through your CSM. The wallet must be pre-funded with a buffer before payroll runs. Its certification stack is deep: ISO 27001, ISO 27701, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR, which puts it at the top of the security column.

For a finance team consolidating payroll across many countries, the backbone is the draw: one reporting layer, 130+ payment currencies and audit-ready filings. Price the full stack rather than the headline. Consolidation savings on multi-vendor payroll often offset the Papaya premium. Its G2 review base is relatively thin at around 55 reviews, which can be a procurement red flag for an enterprise that weights peer reviews alongside certifications. Against G-P, you trade enterprise recognition for a finance-grade payroll backbone and named enterprise connectors.

Countries: 180+ reach, owned EOR entities in 40
Entity model: Owned EOR entities in 40 countries, certified accounting-firm partners elsewhere
Onboarding: Enterprise-paced, with a dedicated CSM
Contractors: Yes, Contractor of Record at $295 per contractor per month, plus a lower managed-contractor tier
Pricing: From $499 per employee per month (EOR); FX processing fee applies, not published; pre-funding required · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.5/5 (55)

Strengths

A strong enterprise payroll and data backbone across 180+ countries and 130+ payment currencies, with a licensed payments subsidiary. Few providers consolidate multi-country payroll data at this scale on one platform.
Named enterprise connectors for Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM and NetSuite, with a self-serve integration and mapping layer, so it slots into an existing enterprise finance stack.
A deep certification stack for enterprise procurement gates: ISO 27001, ISO 27701, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR, plus global equity administration through payroll.
Mature automation and reporting for finance teams running complex multi-country payroll, with audit trails built in and a licensed payments subsidiary for multi-currency disbursements.

Watch-outs

Most of the EOR footprint is partner-delivered. Papaya owns full EOR entities in only 40 of its 180+ countries, so edge-case questions in most markets route through a vetted accounting-firm partner.
An FX processing fee applies on cross-currency conversion with no percentage published, and country-variable margins are supplied via your CSM. The wallet must be pre-funded. Total cost at scale needs careful modelling.
A thin G2 review base of around 55 reviews relative to the other enterprise providers on this list. Procurement teams that weight peer reviews alongside certifications will notice the gap.

Source: papayaglobal.com/pricing

Oyster

Best for: enterprise teams that want a certified B-Corp EOR with a published flat price, a human support SLA with published response times and an onboarding model built for speed.

Oyster is the human-support-first alternative and the only certified B-Corp on this list. It markets a single flat EOR price of $699 per employee per month, a published SLA with 24-hour response and resolution under 72 hours, and an onboarding model designed so a team without an in-house payroll specialist can hire quickly. For an enterprise procurement team that screens suppliers on values, the B-Corp certification alongside a published price and clear support commitments is a set of easy ticks.

The watch-outs for enterprise are in the fine print. Oyster requires a refundable deposit to start an EOR engagement, with no amount published. A currency-conversion fee applies on any currency mismatch, again with no rate published. For an enterprise running large salaries in multiple currencies, an unknown conversion charge on every invoice is a forecast risk. White-glove HR advisory is billed separately at $300 per hour rather than included in the flat fee.

Against the platform-heavy alternatives, Oyster is simpler and more opinionated. The support model gives it a layer that pure self-serve platforms lack, and the flat published price makes comparison straightforward. It is lighter on the enterprise lifecycle, with no path from EOR to your own entity on the same system, so an enterprise growing toward owned entities will eventually need a separate provider for that step. Against Deel, you trade platform breadth for a published flat price and a stronger human support commitment.

Countries: 180+ all products, 120+ for EOR specifically
Entity model: Hybrid, owns or partners with local entities; no published owned-versus-partner split
Onboarding: Fast, automated, with a dedicated hiring success manager
Contractors: Yes, $29 per contractor per month, strong tooling with misclassification protection
Pricing: $699 per employee per month, flat (annual discounts available via Oyster Scale; no published rate) · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.4/5 (1447)

Strengths

A published SLA with 24-hour response and resolution under 72 hours, plus a dedicated hiring success manager for onboarding. Human, expert-led support with a public commitment, not aspirational copy.
A certified B-Corp with a flat published price of $699 per employee per month, no setup, onboarding, HR-expert-access or termination charges. Enterprise procurement teams that screen on ESG get a clear answer.
Strong contractor tooling at $29 per contractor per month with misclassification testing, country-specific IP agreements and payments in 120+ currencies.
SOC 2 Type II and GDPR, with a large G2 review base of around 1,447 reviews. Strong peer-review social proof for enterprise procurement, though its ISO 27001 status is less clearly published.

Watch-outs

Requires a refundable deposit to start an EOR engagement, with no amount published, and charges a currency-conversion fee on any currency mismatch, with no rate published. At enterprise volumes, both are forecast risks.
White-glove HR advisory is billed separately at $300 per hour, not included in the flat fee. An enterprise expecting in-depth employment-law support on complex cases may face unexpected advisory costs.
No path from EOR to your own entity on the same system. An enterprise growing toward owned entities in key markets will outgrow Oyster without a clear migration path.

Pebl (formerly Velocity Global)

Best for: enterprises that want broad reach across 185+ countries, a flat published headline and an AI-first delivery model backed by Baker McKenzie legal expertise.

Velocity Global rebranded to Pebl in September 2025 and repositioned as an AI-first global hiring platform. It reaches 185+ countries, owns legal entities in 65 of them, and publishes a single flat $399 per employee per month on its own EOR pricing page, described as its lowest standard pricing ever. The enterprise-grade compliance posture includes ISO 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR, plus an in-house legal team backed by Baker McKenzie, which puts it at the top of the security column. For an enterprise looking at broad reach with a simple flat headline, it is the lowest published rate on this list that still comes with a genuine legal and compliance posture.

The delivery model is AI-first. The Alfie AI assistant handles day-to-day queries and routes to a human specialist when expertise is needed, backed by 200+ in-country experts. On cost: no FX terms are published on the EOR pricing page. Buyers and third-party reviews report a contractual security deposit and an FX spread that are not on the public pages, so we note those as reports rather than confirmed terms. The page states no undisclosed costs, with terms and conditions applying to the $399 rate.

Most of Pebl's 185+ country reach is partner-delivered: 65 owned entities against 185+ country coverage. The rebrand from Velocity Global is recent (September 2025), and the customer experience is still settling. A centralised Global Work Platform and a contractor conversion capability are on the product. Against Rippling, you trade integration depth for a simpler flat headline and broader country coverage. Against G-P, you trade enterprise incumbent recognition for a lower published price.

Countries: 185+ reach, owned entities in 65 markets
Entity model: Owned entities in 65 markets, in-country partners for the rest
Onboarding: AI-led, with human specialist routing; as fast as 24 hours
Contractors: Yes, 180+ countries (no price published)
Pricing: $399 per employee per month, flat (FX terms not published; terms and conditions apply) · verified 2026-07-22
G2: 4.6/5

Strengths

One of the widest published footprints in the category: 185+ countries including all 50 US states, with owned entities in 65 markets.
The lowest published flat EOR rate on this list at $399 per employee per month, easy to compare and budget without a sales call.
Enterprise-grade compliance: ISO 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type II and GDPR, plus an in-house legal team backed by Baker McKenzie, near the top of the security column.
A centralised Global Work Platform with a broad integration ecosystem across HRIS and finance, and a contractor conversion capability.

Watch-outs

Publishes no FX terms on the EOR pricing page. Buyers and third-party reviewers report a contractual security deposit and an FX spread that do not appear on the public pages.
Most of the 185+ country reach is partner-delivered, with owned entities in only 65 markets. Ask which of your specific countries are owned before contracting.
AI-first day-to-day support through the Alfie assistant, with human-specialist routing. The customer experience is still settling after the September 2025 rebrand. Enterprise buyers should probe the human-escalation model in the demo.

Why the shortlist matters

Behind every line item is a real person, in a real place.

The fee, the FX and the support model are not abstractions. They decide whether the person you hired in Barcelona or Rome is paid right, on time, by someone who knows their employment law. That is what the ranking is really measuring.

What each stakeholder evaluates

Criterion	Legal	Finance	People Ops	Security
Multi-jurisdiction coverage and compliance	Ask whether a real employment-law expert handles a contested termination in your jurisdiction, or whether it routes to an AI assistant and a ticket queue. G-P Prime and Teamed both include direct legal access; G-P Core does not.	Owned entities mean one accountable employer per country, fewer partner hand-offs and cleaner payroll liability. G-P holds the widest owned-entity footprint; Teamed owns entities in 57 countries and backs them with DLA Piper as global counsel. Papaya owns EOR entities in only 40 of 180+ markets.	Jurisdiction-specific expertise at the hard moments separates EOR from payroll processing. The question is not whether the provider has experts, but whether you can reach them on your plan without upgrading.	Certification stack matters for enterprise procurement gates. Deel, Remote, Rippling, G-P, Papaya and Pebl hold ISO 27001 and SOC 2 today. Teamed's programmes are in progress. Confirm current status with each provider before signing.
Pricing transparency at scale	Ask for the all-in cost in writing: the fee, the deposit, pre-funding, and any onboarding, notice or exit charges. Confirm whether salary conversion uses a mid-market rate or an undisclosed spread.	Teamed shows the applied FX rate against mid-market and absorbs it at zero markup. G-P, Deel, Rippling, Papaya and Pebl publish no FX rate or spread. Remote shows the applied rate after the fact with no published percentage. At enterprise salary volumes across many corridors, the difference is a six-figure annual budget line.	An itemised invoice is an auditable record and avoids per-country reconciliation work at the end of each payroll cycle.	A timestamped FX rate against a public reference is an auditable record. Providers that build the conversion cost into the rate without disclosure cannot be independently verified.
Service model and human support	Ask who handles a contested termination or a complex statutory question in one of your key markets. A real jurisdiction expert or an AI assistant routing to a shared queue changes the legal risk profile.	Check whether real human support is on your plan. G-P Core uses the AI assistant; Prime adds a dedicated CSM and legal access. Deel does not publish which plan includes its dedicated channel. Teamed includes real HR and legal experts on every plan.	Test it before you sign: ask each provider to put you through to an employment-law expert in one of your key markets before the contract is countersigned.	A dedicated contact with clear escalation beats a rotating queue for incident handling and breach response.

Decision checklist

Read the small print before you sign. Most EORs require a deposit and many layer on setup, offboarding, minimum-term, no-exit, termination or admin fees. Teamed takes a one-month refundable deposit, charges no onboarding or offboarding fees (an early-exit fee may apply if you leave within 3 months, set out in your contract), and sets the costs out up front.
Choose on the service model and employment intelligence if ongoing human expertise matters more than platform breadth or price. Teamed leads this column: real HR and legal experts on every plan without AI gating, with the Ted layer flagging statutory changes and the crossover point early. Teamed is rated 4.8 on G2.
Choose on pricing transparency if an all-in cost you can forecast matters. Teamed and Remote lead here with published, itemised terms; Teamed absorbs FX at zero markup against the mid-market reference, while Remote discloses a variable spread. Deel publishes a starting rate but not its FX terms, and the quote-led providers (G-P, Papaya, Rippling, Pebl) sit lower.
Choose on multi-jurisdiction coverage and compliance if raw reach and owned-entity depth are the priority. Teamed contests this column with G-P: Teamed through 57 owned entities plus DLA Piper as global counsel and vetted partners across 187+ countries, G-P through the widest owned-entity footprint in the category. Remote and Pebl also lead on owned entities in their core markets.
Choose on the path to your own entity if you plan to bring employment in-house as you scale. Teamed leads this column, with the crossover modelled proactively and Global Entity & Employment Operations (GEMO) for entity setup in 100+ countries.
Choose on security and certifications if your procurement review needs ISO 27001 or SOC 2 in hand today. Deel, Remote, Rippling, G-P, Papaya and Pebl hold current certifications. Teamed is ISO 27001 and SOC 2 aligned with accreditation in progress, so it concedes this column for now.
Choose Rippling if you want HR, IT and payroll on one platform, with 600+ integrations and a unified employee graph. Accept that EOR covers 80 countries, not 180.
Choose G-P if enterprise reach (180+ countries, 100+ legal entities), the widest owned-entity footprint and analyst recognition matter more than published pricing or speed. Confirm the Prime tier in the contract.
Choose Deel if platform breadth, one of the broadest integration catalogues and the strongest brand matter most. Confirm which plan includes dedicated support if that is a requirement.
Choose Papaya Global if enterprise payroll consolidation across many countries and currencies is the priority and you have a finance team to manage the pre-funding and FX process.
Choose Remote if a polished self-serve platform, strong benefits, IP-protection tooling and owned entities in core markets matter most, and annual billing is workable.
Choose Oyster if a certified B-Corp, a published SLA and a flat published price are procurement priorities, and the deposit and currency-conversion terms check out.
Choose Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) if broad reach across 185+ countries and a flat $399 headline matter most, and an AI-first support model works for your team.
Ask every provider three questions enterprise procurement should always ask. First: do real HR and legal experts handle a contested exit in your specific countries, or does it route to an AI assistant? Second: what is your all-in cost in writing, and can you show the applied FX rate on a sample invoice? Third: what is your path from EOR to your own entity, and will you advise proactively when that crossover makes financial sense?

Honest take

When G-P, Rippling, Deel or another provider is the better choice

Choose G-P if enterprise reach, the widest owned-entity footprint and analyst recognition matter more than published pricing. The compliance posture at Prime tier is among the strongest on this list.
Choose Rippling if you want HR, IT and payroll unified on one platform with 600+ integrations. The EOR is a module, not the main product, and the 80-country coverage reflects that.
Choose Deel if platform breadth, one of the broadest integration catalogues and the strongest brand matter most, and you will confirm which plan includes dedicated support.
Choose Remote if a polished product, owned entities in core markets and strong benefits tooling matter most, and annual billing works for your enterprise.
Choose Papaya Global or Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) if multi-country payroll consolidation or the broadest low-cost reach is the priority and you have confirmed the pricing and FX terms.
Choose a certified provider such as Deel, Remote, Rippling, G-P, Papaya or Pebl if your procurement review needs ISO 27001 or SOC 2 in hand today.

Teamed leads the service model and employment intelligence and the path to your own entity, and contests pricing transparency and multi-jurisdiction coverage. It concedes the platform column to Rippling and Deel and security to the certified providers. A buyer who needs analyst recognition, the broadest integration catalogue or a certificate in hand today should pick differently. We'd rather lose the deal than put you in the wrong model.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best EOR for enterprise companies in 2026?
It depends on your procurement priorities. Teamed leads the service model and employment intelligence, with real HR and legal experts included on every plan, and the path from EOR to your own entity. It contests pricing transparency with Remote (FX absorbed at zero markup, shown against mid-market) and multi-jurisdiction coverage with G-P, which holds the widest owned-entity footprint. Rippling and Deel lead platform. The certified providers (Deel, Remote, Rippling, G-P, Papaya, Pebl) lead security. Papaya Global leads on enterprise payroll consolidation. Oyster leads on a published SLA and human support. Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) leads on the lowest flat rate and broad coverage.
How does FX cost affect enterprise EOR budgets?
At enterprise salary levels across multiple currency corridors, an undisclosed FX margin in the 1.5 to 3% industry range across a hundred employees adds up to six figures annually. Most enterprise EOR providers build the conversion cost into the rate without showing it on the invoice. Teamed absorbs FX at zero markup and shows the applied rate against a mid-market reference on every invoice. Remote shows the applied rate after the fact with no published percentage. G-P, Deel, Rippling, Papaya Global and Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) publish no FX rate or spread. At enterprise scale, FX transparency moves from a preference to a finance governance requirement.
Does Globalization Partners publish EOR pricing?
No. G-P publishes no per-employee EOR price on any of its own pages; pricing is gated behind a demo request and a proposal call. G-P names two EOR tiers: G-P EOR Core (with the G-P Assist AI assistant for base support) and G-P EOR Prime (which adds a dedicated CSM, quarterly reviews and direct access to HR and legal teams). Only the contractor product carries a public price at $39 per contractor per month. Third-party reviews consistently report a pre-funding model of roughly one to two months of salary per employee, though G-P does not publish that on its pages.
How does enterprise EOR differ from standard EOR?
Enterprise EOR covers the same function, legally employing people in countries where you don't have an entity, but at a scale and governance level that changes the requirements. Enterprise buyers need a certification stack that clears procurement reviews (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR), named HRIS connectors for Workday, SAP or Oracle, a dedicated account relationship and SLAs rather than a shared support queue, FX transparency across many currency corridors with large salary volumes, and a clear path from EOR to owned entities as the organisation grows. Several EOR providers do the basics well for smaller teams and begin to show gaps at enterprise scale on these dimensions.
Which EOR integrates with Workday or SAP for enterprise?
Rippling leads on integration breadth with 600+ integrations on one employee graph. Papaya Global has named enterprise connectors for Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM and NetSuite with a self-serve integration and mapping layer. Deel and Remote both offer HRIS integrations covering most enterprise stacks. Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) has a broad integration ecosystem across HRIS and finance platforms. Teamed plugs into the major HRIS and payroll platforms an enterprise already runs, adding the employment-law layer rather than replacing the HR system. If a named connector is a procurement gate, ask each provider for a live demonstration before shortlisting.
How current is this comparison, and how was it scored?
Every competitor figure is verified 17 June 2026 against each provider's own pricing page and G2, with security certifications re-checked 22 July 2026. Each provider is scored 1 to 5 on six enterprise-focused axes: pricing transparency, multi-jurisdiction coverage and compliance, platform and self-serve, security and certifications, the service model and employment intelligence, and the path to your own entity. There is no weighted total and no overall winner. Where a provider does not publish EOR pricing (G-P, Rippling on primary pages), we say so. We review the page quarterly and re-verify pricing monthly.

Common questions

What is the best EOR for large enterprise companies?
It depends on enterprise priorities. G-P leads multi-jurisdiction coverage but is quote-only and AI-gated at the base tier. Rippling and Deel lead platform; Rippling covers only 80 EOR countries. Teamed leads the service model and employment intelligence and the path to your own entity, and contests pricing transparency with Remote (FX at zero markup, shown on every invoice). The certified providers lead security. Papaya leads payroll consolidation. Each provider leads a different column.
Which EOR provider is best for an enterprise with employees in 20 or more countries?
For 20+ countries: ask which are owned entities versus partners, what the all-in cost is at your salary volumes, and whether real expert support is on your plan without an upgrade. G-P holds the widest owned-entity footprint; Teamed owns entities in 57 countries plus DLA Piper as global counsel and vetted partners across 187+, and includes experts on every plan. Rippling covers only 80 EOR countries. Papaya has 180+ reach but only 40 owned EOR entities. Ask the per-country entity question directly.
