The lowest EOR prices among providers that still score well. Every provider here holds a Select Score of 65 or higher, then we rank cheapest first, so value never means a race to the bottom on quality.

Selection criteria: a published EOR price and a Select Score of 65 or higher, ranked cheapest first (Select Score breaking ties). The ranking is produced by the Select Score algorithm and recalculated as provider data and reviews change, so positions can shift over time.

## FAQ

### What is the cheapest EOR provider?

Among independent providers, RemoFirst and Skuad start from $199 per employee per month. Our own brand Hire with Columbus is lower at from $179, but we keep it out of the top spot.

### Does a cheaper EOR mean weaker compliance?

Not necessarily. The value providers here still run local compliance; the trade-off is usually less platform depth and fewer integrations, not weaker employment compliance.

### How is this ranking decided?

Every provider runs the same Select Score model, weighted toward price for this list. We include our own brand but keep it out of the number one spot and the seal.
