Every provider we score for Contractor of Record, ordered by our COR score and filterable by price.
How to read this list
Each card shows our COR score out of 10, the COR price as the provider publishes it, and the countries it lists for COR.
The default order is our COR 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.

Top pro
COR at $49 per contractor a month with no setup fee: the 8 other per-contractor-month COR list prices on this site are all higher
Top con
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

Top pro
Own SOC 2 (Type I and II), SOC 3 and ISO 27001:2022 on its security page; the AWS certifications listed there are kept apart as the host's
Top con
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

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

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

Top pro
EOR from $200 per employee a month, under 14 of the 20 other dollar EOR starting prices on this site; Garna says there are no hidden fees or FX markups
Top con
No published client price for Contractor of Record, contractor payouts or contractor management; the contractor commission is called small and no percentage is given
Know what COR takes on. A Contractor of Record contracts with the contractor itself and bills you, so the contract, documents and payments sit with the provider. Each provider page says what it states it covers.
Compare prices in the same unit. Some providers charge a fee per contractor a month, others 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 COR price includes, as the provider states it.
