Every provider we score for contractor management, ordered by our score for it and filterable by price.
How to read this list
Each card shows our contractor management score out of 10, the contractor management price as the provider publishes it, and the countries it lists for contractor management.
The default order is our contractor management score, highest first; equal scores go by name. The score uses only our five criteria. Review-platform ratings are shown on the cards but are not part of it. How we score
Filters and sorting change which cards you see and their order, not the scores.

The $49 COR card and the terms disagree: the card describes direct hiring with your own agreements, the T&Cs and help centre describe Ontop as the contracting party that invoices in its own name

Best for
A first hire in one new country or a team spread over many, at a startup, mid-market firm or enterprise (G-P has a page for each)
Not for
Buyers who rank EOR providers mostly by the monthly fee
Top pro
G-P claims EOR in 180+ countries; its Globalpedia country guides document 148 countries + 3 territories one by one
Top con
EOR from $599 per employee a month; 15 of 20 other EOR prices in US dollars that we compare start lower; volume discounts are offered but not quantified
Startups, scaling companies and enterprises, the three groups Native Teams writes for
Not for
Buyers who want to read the EOR or COR agreement before talking to sales: the terms of service are the only contract text online
Top pro
EOR from $99 per employee a month, below all 20 other per-employee EOR prices in USD we compare
Top con
The terms of service are the only contract text online. The EOR and COR agreements are not published, and the terms say a separate signed contract takes precedence
Enterprise teams and small and growing businesses (SMEs), in RemotePass's own words
Not for
Buyers who must review EOR contract terms up front: no EOR agreement is public
Top pro
EOR from $349 per employee a month with tax included; 13 of 20 other EOR prices in dollars start higher
Top con
No EOR agreement is public: the Terms say EOR runs under a separate Consultant Agreement "available on the Site", which we did not find. The public legal documents are the Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Acceptable Use Policy

The "from" prices assume an annual contract. Monthly EOR costs $499 on Core and $559 on Growth, about 11% of countries are priced differently, and compliance-mandated add-ons come on top of EOR and COR

Best for
Companies that pay many contractors and want a single agreement instead of one per person
Not for
Buyers who need a price before they talk to sales
Top pro
One agreement covers any number of contractors; Restaff signs the individual contracts
Top con
No client price: the fee is the formula T = Sa / K with K shown only in the client's account, Restaff can change K after notifying the client (Terms 10.2), and the invoice is paid in advance
Decide who holds the contract. A contractor management platform runs contracts, documents and payments while you stay the contracting party. If you want the provider to contract with the contractor instead, see Contractor of Record.
Compare prices in the same unit. Most platforms charge per contractor a month, some a share of each payout. The price sort compares like with like and puts providers without a "from" price last.
Check what the price covers. Each provider page lists what its contractor plan includes.
