This list ranks EOR providers by the lowest published monthly fees we track, cheapest first. Every provider shown has passed a Select Score threshold of 55 or higher, so price leadership never comes at the cost of basic usability. If your primary constraint is cost and you still need a provider you can rely on, this list is the right starting point.

Selection criteria: a published EOR price and a Select Score of 55 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

### Why are some cheap EOR providers excluded from this list?

Providers below a Select Score of 55 are filtered out regardless of price. A very low price with poor compliance support, unreliable payroll, or no meaningful customer service creates legal and operational risk that outweighs any saving.

### Do EOR providers charge extra fees on top of their published price?

Many do. Common add-ons include one-time setup fees, offboarding fees, benefits markup, and charges for additional countries or currencies. Always request a full fee schedule and model the total annual cost per employee before signing.

### Is a cheaper EOR provider less compliant than a more expensive one?

Not necessarily. Price reflects business model and market positioning more than compliance quality. The Select Score filter on this list screens for a baseline level of compliance capability, so every provider shown meets a minimum standard.
