Pricing

EOR	$599 per EOR employee per month (public list price, checked 2026-10-05)
Contractors	$49 per contractor per month; $325 per contractor of record per month (public list price, checked 2026-10-05)
Payroll	Not publicly listed / not verified

Also lists $125 per US PEO employee/month and $14 per worker/month for Find Talent. Page says no long-term commitments, 'no hidden fees'. Promo through Dec 31, 2026: three months of complimentary platform fees on new PEO orders with minimum two-year terms. Global payroll price not seen.

Coverage and model

150+ countries (vendor claim, per Deel's own and third-party descriptions) Hybrid: own entities in many markets plus in-country partners elsewhere. Third-party summary says '120+ owned entities' but that count is cited inconsistently (100+, 110+, 120+, 130+) across Deel pages. Deel has a blog titled 'owned entity vs in country partner' (not read).

Services: eor, payroll, contractors, peo, hris · HQ: San Francisco, California (third-party: https://www.clay.com/dossier/deel-headquarters-office-locations)

Advantages

Public, flat EOR list price ($599) and contractor price ($49) on the pricing page, so cost modelling is possible without a sales call.
Covers contractors, contractor of record ($325), EOR and a US PEO ($125) on one pricing page, which suits companies with a mixed workforce.
Highest G2 count of the EOR group in the comparison page seen (4.7 from 6,836 reviews), so the score is statistically more stable than smaller vendors.
Runs a live affiliate program on PartnerStack with a dedicated affiliate manager (see programs.json).

Drawbacks

EOR list price of $599 is above Playroll ($399), Multiplier (from $459 annual, third-party) and RemoFirst ($199 from) in the sources seen.
Hybrid model: part of the footprint runs through third-party in-country partners, and the owned-entity count is quoted inconsistently across Deel pages (third-party observation).
Contractor price ($49) is higher than Remote ($29 basic), Oyster ($29 after 30 days) and RemoFirst ($25 premium) list prices.

Third-party review signals

G2: Deel Payroll 4.7/5 from 6,836 reviews (seen in a search snippet of g2.com compare page: https://g2.com/compare/deel-vs-g-p-vs-remote-vs-oyster-oyster; not opened directly). Trustpilot 4.8/5 per a third-party aggregator snippet, not verified on Trustpilot itself.

Alternatives

Remote — Teams that want a published price for each product (EOR, global payroll, contractors, contractor of record, US PEO) and an affiliate program with 12-month revenue share.
Oyster — Distributed teams that want published EOR and contractor prices and a long-running affiliate program with tiered revenue share.
Multiplier — Cost-conscious teams that want EOR priced below $500 per employee with an annual discount.
Playroll — Small teams that want a low flat EOR price with no onboarding or offboarding fees, and affiliates who want a documented per-product payout.
Globalization Partners (G-P) — Larger or enterprise buyers that want a long-established EOR with contractor and AI compliance add-ons.
