Hyperwallet review

Hyperwallet is a payout service from PayPal that we score for contractor payouts only. Its enterprise page states payouts to 200+ countries and regions through up to 9 payout methods, and its small and medium-sized business page states 115 countries through PayPal, plus Venmo for US payees. It publishes no price, and its security page states its own SOC 1, SOC 2, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS Level 1 certifications.

Verdict

Best for

  • Enterprises and marketplaces paying large numbers of people in many countries (royalties, insurance claims, airline reimbursements, clinical trials, prizes and rewards)
  • Platforms that need several payout methods, such as bank, card, PayPal, Venmo and cash pickup
  • Teams that want 1099 tax reporting and payee verification delivered with the payouts (enterprise and marketplace configurations)
  • Developers who want a REST API, batch file transfer or web upload

Not for

  • Companies that want to see a price before contacting sales
  • Buyers who need EOR or COR: its pages describe payouts, and it pays contractors; it does not produce their contracts
  • Teams that need contracts or IP assignment handled in the platform: neither is stated
  • Small and medium-sized businesses that need bank, card or cash payouts: the SMB page lists PayPal and Venmo only
Stands out
Compliance and reach on paper: its own SOC 1, SOC 2, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS Level 1, an Australian financial services licence, and a stated 200+ countries and regions for enterprise payouts.
Biggest limit
No price. Hyperwallet sends buyers to a Solutions Expert to discuss pricing, and it says nothing on setup, deposit, term or termination charges, so a buyer cannot compare its cost with the other providers here before talking to sales.
