It operates through its own legal entities in 95+ countries, and its Employer of Record service lets companies employ teams through those entities without establishing a local one themselves.

Driver payroll includes bulk CSV uploads, real-time tracking, API integrations, early wage access, and contract e-signatures. Contractor features include onboarding, agreement management, tax document support, and compliance management; the Contractor plan also lists third-party integrations. Native Teams offers Android, iOS, and web access. Its mobile app requires Android 8.0 or higher or iOS 16.0 or higher, and some newer Huawei devices without Google Play services may not support it. Plans include Contractor Pay at €19 a month per employee, Remoter at €79 a month, Employer of Record and Contractor of Record at €99 a month, and Entity Management at €149 a month. Gig Pay has custom pricing. There is no free plan; listed pricing starts from $19/mo.
