Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 4 of the 20 other payroll services we grade
Payoneer Workforce Management, delivered by Payoneer's group company Skuad, offers three ways to hire and pay people abroad: an employer of record for full-time staff in 110+ countries, an agent of record that engages contractors through its own entity, and a dashboard for managing your own contractors. Payroll and contractor payments go out in 70+ currencies, and each price is a starting figure confirmed in a demo.
To get you started, here are 8 things to know about Payoneer Workforce Management, taken from its own pages and our grades.
- 1
Best for hiring abroad at a low starting rate
But every price is a starting figure confirmed in a demo, and the listing shows no payroll for companies you already have abroad.
- 2
Paid plans start at $19 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: $19 per contractor / month and up, Contractor Management System.
- 3
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android.
- 4
Employer of record
Payoneer becomes the legal employer, issuing local contracts and running payroll, taxes and benefits; onboarding typically takes 5 to 7 business days.
- 5
Agent of record for contractors
Contractors are engaged through Payoneer with digital service agreements and classification guidance, on pay-as-you-go, milestone or fixed terms.
- 6
Contractor dashboard
Contracts, timesheets, invoices and payment status for every contractor in one place, with automated invoice creation and approval routing.
- 7
A 2.2 GPA, above 4 of 20
That is against the other payroll services we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 8
Keep it
To replace Payoneer Workforce Management 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.

The report card
Best for hiring abroad at a low starting rate
Payoneer's workforce service, run by its group company Skuad, employs people for you in 110+ countries from $199 a person a month, about a third of the usual $599. Contractors cost from $19 a month each on its dashboard. But every price is a starting figure confirmed in a demo, and the listing shows no payroll for companies you already have abroad.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | A | Graded against the other employer-of-record services: from $199 a person a month, about a third of the $599 Deel and Remote charge for each person. It's a floor, though: the fee varies by country and role and is confirmed in a demo. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan or trial. Every service starts with a demo request, so you pay from the first hire. |
| Features | C | Employer of record in 110+ countries, an agent of record for contractors in 160+, a contractor dashboard and pay in 70+ currencies. Hiring abroad is covered, but the listing shows no payroll for your own entities and no US PEO, and visa help is extra. |
| Ease of use | C | No App Store rating on record. A new hire is typically onboarded in 5 to 7 business days with an account manager, but you get there through a demo and setup, not a sign-up form. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iPhone and Android, paying people to bank accounts or e-wallets in 70+ currencies. The listing names no integrations, though, and there's no desktop app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Payoneer Workforce Management is for
- Great if you want a first hire abroad without paying $599 a month for it
- Handy when you already move money with Payoneer and want staff paid the same way
- Good for teams paying contractors in many countries, from $19 each a month
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a firm price before talking to sales, as every fee is confirmed in a demo
- Not for you if you have your own companies abroad and just need payroll run there
- Tight if your hire needs a visa, as that help is extra and only in some countries
Good to know
Good for
- Companies hiring full-time staff abroad without opening a local entity
- Businesses paying contractors in many countries and currencies
- Teams already using Payoneer for cross-border payments
Worth knowing
- Every price is a starting figure bought by requesting a demo, and the employer-of-record fee varies by country and role.
- The employer of record covers 110+ countries and contractor services 160+; the pages read do not list the countries.
- Visa and immigration help is an extra service for employer-of-record clients in select countries only.
- The services are provided by Skuad Pte Limited, a Payoneer group company, and the pricing page notes that fees may change.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Payoneer Workforce Management 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: 13 of the 20 other payroll services grade higher. It costs $228 a year.
What you could make
- Expense tracking and invoicing: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
What this rests on. Payoneer Workforce Management’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
