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.

Pebl (formerly Velocity Global) publicly documents its own employing entity in 3 countries (British Virgin Islands, India and United States).

Remote People does not publicly name its employing entities, so we cannot show where it employs directly.

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.

What the fee difference adds up to

Remote People's published EOR fee is $200 lower per employee per month. That is $2,400 a year for one hire and $24,000 a year for a team of ten, before any volume discount either provider negotiates.
