What Deel actually costs over a year
A monthly price is not the same thing as a monthly contract. These are the plans above resolved both ways, per seat or unit where the plan is charged that way. Where a vendor quotes only a yearly figure it is divided by twelve rather than left out, and the Quoted column says which figure the vendor actually publishes.
| Plan | Quoted | Monthly | Over 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| Find talentper worker | per month | $14 | $168 |
| Hire contractorsper contractor | per month | $49 | $588 |
| Contractor of Recordper contractor | per month | $325 | $3,900 |
| US PEOper US employee | per month | $125 | $1,500 |
| EORper employee | per month | $599 | $7,188 |
Deel pricing over time
Read from 2 archived captures of the vendor's pricing page , spanning February 2023 to September 2026. Every figure below links to the capture it came from, so you can check it against the page as it stood on the day.
Find talent
| Published price | Charged | Seen from | Last seen | Capture |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $14 | Not stated | 3 September 2026 | Single capture | Archive |
1 archived capture with no price we could read
The capture exists, but the figures on it could not be extracted - usually a page that renders prices in JavaScript, or a currency selector the archive did not record. Listed rather than dropped, because a gap in a price history reads as "nothing changed" and these are not that.
- 7 February 2023 - capture - no plan name sat next to a published figure in this capture
Compiled 18 September 2026 from the Internet Archive Wayback Machine. Plan names were matched against the archived page text and the first currency-anchored figure within 160 characters was recorded, rejecting any figure with a competing plan name standing between it and the name it was matched to. The currency and the unit were read from each capture rather than assumed: captures served in a currency other than $, and captures where no plan name sat beside a figure, are listed as unread rather than dropped. 4 plan series were read from these captures and then discarded, because the most recent capture did not reproduce the price we verified on the live page. Only plans the extraction demonstrably reads correctly are published here. Archived pages show the price as served to the archive's crawler, which may differ by region from the price you are shown.
Deel pricing against its competitors
Compared on the smallest invoice each vendor will accept, not on the advertised per-seat rate. Where a product has a seat minimum, the figure below is the minimum times the rate, because that is the cheque you would actually write.
| Product | Cheapest paid entry | Free plan | Against Deel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deel | $14 a month | No | This product |
| Rippling | Quote only | No | – |
Which Deel plan should you buy?
| Your situation | Recommended | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You are engaging international contractors | Hire contractors | $49 per contractor a month for compliant contracts, invoicing and payment in 120+ currencies. |
| Your contractors look a lot like employees | Contractor of Record | $325 transfers misclassification risk to Deel. Whether the $276 premium is worth it is a legal question, not a software one. |
| You want to employ someone abroad with no local entity | EOR | $599 per employee a month, and cheap against incorporating in a country you are only testing. |
| You are hiring across US states | US PEO | $125 per employee for co-employment in all 50 states with benefits included. |
| You have roughly ten or more staff in one country | Price your own entity instead | Ten EOR employees is about $72,000 a year in fees alone, which approaches the cost of a local entity with payroll and accounting. |
| Your team is entirely domestic | Do not buy Deel | Local payroll is far cheaper. Deel solves a cross-border problem you do not have. |
Verdict by who you are
Startup making its first international hireYes
EOR removes months of legal and entity work for a predictable monthly fee, and Deel publishes that fee, which most of this category refuses to do.
Company paying contractors worldwideYes
Compliant contracts and multi-currency payment at $49 is straightforwardly good value.
Company with 20 staff in one foreign countryNo
EOR economics invert at scale. Open an entity and use Deel's global payroll for it instead.
Domestic-only employerNo
Nothing here helps you. Use local payroll.
Buyer wanting one platform feeCompare first
Costs stack per service rather than bundling, so a multi-service setup is several line items.
Should you buy Deel?
Buy Deel if…
- Hiring employees in countries where you have no legal entity
- Paying international contractors compliantly
- Companies needing worker classification handled properly
Do not buy Deel if…
- Domestic-only teams, where local payroll is far cheaper
- Very large headcounts abroad, where an entity becomes cheaper
- Buyers wanting a single all-in platform price
What leaving Deel would cost
moderate lock-in
Deel scores on public API. Portability 5/10 ; lock-in is the inverse. How this is calculated.
Priced per service, not per plan
Deel does not sell tiers. It sells services, each with its own per-person monthly price:
| Service | Price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Find talent | $14 per worker/month | Sourcing, screening, offers |
| Hire contractors | $49 per contractor/month | Contracts, invoicing, payment |
| Contractor of Record | $325 per contractor/month | Deel becomes the contracting party |
| US PEO | $125 per employee/month | Co-employment in all 50 states |
| EOR | $599 per employee/month | Legal employment in 130+ countries |
This is unusually transparent for the category, and it means you can model a budget without a sales call. It also means costs add up rather than bundle: recruiting five people, running eight contractors and employing two abroad is three separate lines.
At the time we checked, Deel was advertising US PEO free for three months as a limited-time offer. Time-limited offers expire, so treat that as a reason to ask rather than a rate to plan on.
When EOR stops being the cheap option
Employer of record is excellent value for your first hire in a country and poor value for your twentieth. At $599 a month, ten employees in one country is roughly $72,000 a year in EOR fees alone, which is in the region of what incorporating and running a local entity costs, with payroll and accounting on top.
The rule of thumb worth applying: use EOR to enter a market and test it, and revisit once headcount there reaches somewhere around five to ten people. Deel also sells global payroll for entities you own, so the migration path exists.
Contractor of Record is insurance, priced accordingly
The jump from $49 to $325 buys a transfer of risk. Under Contractor of Record, Deel becomes the party engaging the contractor and carries the misclassification exposure. Whether that is worth $276 a month per person depends entirely on your jurisdiction and how genuinely independent your contractors are.
For clearly independent contractors invoicing for project work, the $49 product is enough. For long-term, full-time-looking contractors in a country with aggressive enforcement, the premium is cheaper than a reclassification finding. That is a question for a lawyer, not a software directory, and anyone telling you otherwise is guessing.
Against Rippling
Rippling is the broader platform and covers IT and spend as well as HR, but it publishes no prices. Deel is the specialist for hiring across borders and tells you what it costs. If global employment is the problem you actually have, start here.
Deel questions, answered
- Is Deel worth it?
- Deel solves a problem that is otherwise genuinely hard: employing someone in a country where you have no legal entity, without getting the employment law wrong.
- How much does Deel cost?
- Contractors from $49 per contractor/month; EOR from $599 per employee/month. The cheapest paid tier we recorded is Find talent, published at $14 a month, which works out at $14 a month or $168 over a year. Verified against the vendor's pricing page.
- Does Deel have a free plan or free trial?
- Deel has no free plan. No free trial is offered.
- What is the best Deel alternative?
- It depends on the job. Remote: Very similar EOR coverage, worth pricing side by side. Rippling: Broader HR and IT platform, but no published pricing. Oyster: Another EOR competitor, often cheaper for small headcounts.
- Can I self-host Deel?
- No. Deel is a hosted service only, so your data lives on the vendor's infrastructure.

What has changed
-
August 2026
- Corrected the PEO offer's end date from an estimated 30 September to the vendor-stated 31 December 2026. Deel's promotion terms publish a window requiring an order form executed between 15 July and 31 December 2026, so the earlier note claiming no end date was published was wrong.
- Contractor and EOR entry prices re-verified at $49 and $599 per month.
-
August 2026
- Per-service pricing verified across recruiting, contractors, PEO and EOR
- Recorded a time-limited PEO offer of three months free
- Added plan picker and verdicts
