Own entity or local partner
An EOR either employs your hire through its own local company or through a partner it contracts. With its own entity, the provider controls payroll and compliance directly; with a partner, a third company is the legal employer.
Globalization Partners does not publicly name its employing entities, so we cannot show where it employs directly.
Payoneer Workforce Management publicly documents its own employing entity in 1 country (Netherlands).
Only entities with a public source (a registry record or the provider’s own legal documents) are counted. A provider can have more entities than it publishes.

Payoneer Workforce Management's published EOR fee is $400 lower per employee per month. That is $4,800 a year for one hire and $48,000 a year for a team of ten, before any volume discount either provider negotiates.
