Why Businesses Are Switching to GloPay for Global Contractor Payroll

Managing international independent contractors shouldn’t mean paying heavy monthly software subscriptions or losing money to hidden currency conversion markups.

Enterprise HR platforms like Deel, Remote, Oyster, Rippling, Multiplier, Plane, and Skuad charge monthly fee per active contractor every month, GloPay offers a zero-subscription alternative built specifically for managing remote freelancers.

Quick Comparison: GloPay vs. Top SaaS Platforms

Monthly Platform Subscriptions

  • Deel, Remote, Oyster, Plane, Multiplier, Skuad: Around $50 per contractor, every single month.

  • GloPay: $0 per month. No recurring software fees or monthly retainers.

Foreign Exchange & Conversion Fees

  • Deel & Competitors: Hidden FX spreads (0.6% to 3%+) charged during cross-border conversion.

  • GloPay: $0 currency conversion fees for business clients. Receive invoices and pay in your preferred native currency (USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD).

Payment Rails & Setup

  • Deel & Competitors: Require complex software dashboard sign-ups and funding wallet setups.

  • GloPay: Settle invoices directly from your business bank account via standard IBAN, SEPA, ACH, or SWIFT wire transfers—no client portal required.

Revenue Model & Invoicing

  • Deel & Competitors: Per-seat SaaS monthly billing plus transaction fees.

  • GloPay: Net Invoicing. If a contractor bills $1,000, your business pays exactly $1,000. GloPay processes its 5% operating share internally upon payout (95% to contractor, 5% to GloPay).

Why GloPay is the Best Alternative to Deel, Remote, Oyster, Rippling, Multiplier, Plane, and Skuad

If your company works primarily with remote freelancers rather than full-time employees, paying monthly platform fees just to send an invoice is an unnecessary tax on your business.

GloPay eliminates software retainers and complex portals, allowing you to onboard international talent in minutes and settle payments via standard bank wires with 1:1 clean accounting.
