## Good for

- Companies hiring employees abroad without local entities

## Worth knowing

- The listed prices are starting points; the page says volume discounts and negotiable rates apply, and proposals are requested from sales.
- G-P Gia is a compliance assistant sold separately from employment and payroll.
- An employer of record legally employs your workers abroad, so it is not payroll software for your own entity.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.8 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Globalization Partners is an employer of record, from $599 per employee a month, with contractor payments from $39. That is many times what payroll software costs, and the company legally employs your workers abroad rather than running payroll for you.

- **Value for money: D.** EOR starts at $599 per employee a month and contractors at $39, against $29 in the middle of payroll tools. It is a different service, but still far above the category.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** The only trial is 14 days of the G-P Gia compliance assistant. Payroll and employment have nothing free.
- **Features: B.** Employer of record, global payroll, contractor payments, a compliance assistant, reporting and an API.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. Hiring abroad involves contracts and onboarding with the vendor.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only on the listing, with reporting and an API.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace G-P (Globalization Partners) you would be making payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 30 of the 40 other payroll services grade higher. It costs $468 a year.

- You could make: Employee records and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you.
- You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
