Hire employees and contractors anywhere without setting up local legal entities. Deel handles compliance in every market.
Local employment contracts, tax filings, benefits, and IP protection are automated per country. No legal team required.
Onboard a new international employee in days, not months. Contractors can be paid within 24 hours of signing.
Deel connects with 50+ tools across accounting, HRIS, and ATS platforms.
Deel is a global HR and payroll platform that lets companies hire, pay, and manage employees and contractors in 150+ countries without setting up local legal entities. It is best for startups and scale-ups with distributed international teams, companies using contractors across multiple countries, and businesses that want to hire globally without the complexity of local entity setup.
Deel acts as the legal employer of record in the target country. You manage the employee day-to-day, while Deel handles the local employment contract, payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance. This lets you hire full-time employees in countries where you have no legal entity, typically within days rather than months.
Deel offers a free plan for companies paying contractors. The free tier covers basic contractor management and payments. Paid plans start from $49 per contractor per month and add features like advanced compliance tools, misclassification protection, and priority support.
Deel is strongest when you need global coverage across 150+ countries, EOR services, and contractor management in one platform. Rippling is better for US-first teams that want HR, IT, and payroll automation together. Gusto is the easiest and most cost-effective option for US-only SMB payroll. If your team is primarily US-based with no international hiring, Gusto or Rippling will likely offer better value.
Deel integrates with QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, BambooHR, Workday, Slack, Greenhouse, Lever, and 50+ other tools. The accounting integrations sync payroll data automatically, reducing manual reconciliation. HR integrations keep employee records in sync across platforms.
