FAQs

1. What is the best global payroll provider?

The best global payroll provider offers accurate payroll processing, local tax and labor law compliance, easy integration with HR systems, and strong customer support. Payoneer WFM is one such example of a leading global payroll provider. The right choice depends on your company size, locations, and whether you hire employees, contractors, or both.

2. How does a global payroll work?

Global payroll handles employee payments across multiple countries. It calculates wages, withholds taxes, and ensures compliance with local labor laws and regulations. Some providers offer both direct payroll processing and employer of record (EOR) services.

3. How is a global payroll system different from an international payments platform?

A global payroll system manages salaries, taxes, and compliance for employees. An international payments platform is designed mainly for sending money across borders and does not handle HR or tax requirements.
