Overview
Deel is a global HR and payroll company founded in 2019 by Alex Bouaziz (chief executive) and Shuo Wang (chief revenue officer). Its about page reports more than 4,000 team members in more than 100 countries and gives two customer figures, 35,000+ in founder biographies and 40,000+ elsewhere; its pricing page also cites more than 40,000 customers and more than US$20 billion of payroll processed.[2][1]
Deel’s employer of record service provides full legal employment in more than 130 countries, within a platform that covers more than 150 countries for contractors and payroll. Beyond EOR, the company sells contractor management, a contractor-of-record service, a US PEO, global payroll for companies with their own entities, and HR software, so a customer can move workers between engagement models as headcount in a country grows.[1]
EOR pricing starts at US$599 per employee per month, contractors from US$49 per month, contractor of record from US$325 and the US PEO from US$125 per employee per month. The FAQ describes month-to-month pricing without long-term commitment, and contractor payments can be made in more than 120 currencies.[1] Published prices are starting points, and country-specific costs such as statutory contributions and benefits are added on top. Deel’s breadth is its main advantage; its range of products and add-ons also makes total cost harder to compare than single-product providers.
