## Cost breakdown

Deel has designed its pricing tiers to create focused offerings that reduce the likelihood of users paying for more features they won’t use. Specifically, it helps businesses access tiers that correspond with their employee structure — whether a US-based business, a global team, or a firm heavily reliant on contractors.

### Starting price

With nine plans available, Deel has pricing that runs the gamut, including a free plan and a custom-quoted plan. 

Its five payroll and hiring plans include: 

-   Deel US Payroll: Starting at $19 per employee per month; allows automation of U.S. payroll processing
    
-   Deel Global Payroll: Starting at $29 per employee per month; supports businesses paying remote workers
    
-   Deel Contractor: Starting at $49 per month; helps businesses manage contractor and temporary contracts efficiently
    
-   Deel US PEO: Starting at $89 per employee per month; handles domestic payroll, compliance, and various HR admin tasks via a professional employer organization (PEO)
    
-   Deel EOR: Starting at $599 per month; manages international hiring and onboarding processes via an employer of record (EOR) organization
    

Its plans focused on HR operations include:

-   Deel HR: Free; provides a basic HR platform that helps businesses manage time off, create employee directories, store documents, and more
    
-   Deel Engage: Starting at $20 per employee per month; lets businesses assess employee performance and provide continuous professional development (CPD) opportunities
    

Deel’s plan for managing and automating global IT operations (Deel IT) starts at $99 per month, and its plan to help with obtaining visas and green cards for relocating workers (Deel Immigration) requires contacting the provider for a custom quote.

### Billing options

According to Deel’s website, its plans are based on monthly billing. While it is not clear if annual billing is available, you can discuss this with the sales team during a 30-minute demo booking.

### Feature differentiation

Each Deel plan is specialized for specific HR requirements. As such, each subscription has quite different features. Here are some of the common differences between the plan features:

-   **Employee location:** The most significant difference between the different tiers is the locations they cater to. Some plans are U.S.-specific (US Payroll, US PEO), while others cater to global workforces (Global Payroll, Deel EOR). This way, users can get the level of compliance and tax information they need to process employee details and payroll correctly. The Deel Immigration plan takes this one step further by giving businesses the support and tools to relocate workers around the world in compliance with U.S. and local laws.
    
-   **Payroll:** Some of the tiers offer payroll-specific features. However, depending on the plan, the amount of support you get will differ. While the Deel Global Payroll and Deel US Payroll plans will offer compliance checks, the Deel US PEO tier offers advanced compliance tools and assistance that incorporate state-specific policies. 
-   **IT management:** While the free Deel HR tier offers some basic tool access management, the Deel IT package offers much more functionality. You can track and manage your device lifecycle, control software access across your tech stack, and manage your SaaS licenses.
    
-   **Customer support:** All Deel plans offer 24/7 support. However, some packages specify that you will receive a dedicated customer support manager to help you navigate the software and the relevant HR and payroll services related to that tier. 

## What users say about Deel pricing

We analyzed nearly 2,000 verified user reviews written over the past two years from our database to determine how users feel about Deel pricing. From our analysis, over half the reviews mentioning affordability believe that Deel is expensive compared to 12% who considered it affordable. Users have mixed opinions about the transparency of pricing, with some believing it to be clear, while others admit confusion about extra charges. Some users highlight that Deel may not be a good fit for those who often make smaller transactions as it can be more costly.

## Detailed breakdown of Deel pricing plans

To make the right choice for your business, we’re breaking down all nine Deel plans to give you a detailed view of what each plan offers.

### Hiring and payroll plans

#### Deel US Payroll

**Priced at:** $19 per employee per month

**Ideal for:** Companies with a U.S.-only workforce that want a comprehensive payroll system

Deel US Payroll offers automated payroll processing for U.S. employees, with registration support in all 50 states.

**Deel US Payroll plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **Payroll processing:** Based on states, contracts, and working hours, Deel US Payroll calculates pay and taxes for your employees, submits payroll for your approval, and then files taxes with government agencies and distributes employee payslips via the employee portal. 
-   **Automated filings:** Deel US Payroll automates filings of W-2s, W-4s, new hire documents, and more.
    
-   **Payroll compliance support:** Deel US Payroll provides access to more than 350 in-house compliance experts who can help ensure your payroll process is compliant with the relevant state laws. This is especially important if you have employees working in multiple states, each requiring different forms and tax codes.
    
-   **Dedicated support:** Having a dedicated customer service manager means users can quickly ask any questions about using the software. In turn, this reduces the potential for payment delays due to software problems.

#### Deel Global Payroll

**Priced at:** $29 per employee per month

**Ideal for:** Businesses with a global team that need automation and compliance tools to easily pay international employees

Deel Global Payroll provides payroll processing, tax filing, benefits management, and compliance in some 130 countries. It can help mitigate many of the challenges associated with having an international workforce.

**Deel Global Payroll plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **Point of contact (POC) in every country:** Employees and owners need access to local representatives who can quickly resolve any payroll queries. Deel Global Payroll has a dedicated POC — someone who knows local legislation and processes — in every country it serves.
    
-   **Local tax filings:** Each country has its own tax legislation with different codes, tax brackets, and filing procedures. To make it easier for business owners to do international payroll, Deel Global Payroll files with local authorities on their behalf. 
-   **Payslip creation and delivery:** Like the US Payroll plan, Deel Global Payroll also automates payslips and ensures they are delivered to employees on time. 
-   **Localized employee benefits and deductions:** Deel Global Payroll ensures benefits are compliant and relevant to the employee’s location. This way, employees aren’t being offered benefits they could only use in the U.S.

#### Deel Contractor

**Priced at:** $49 per month

**Ideal for:** Businesses that regularly hire contractors and need an HR and payroll system with built-in tools to process them

Deel Contractor gives businesses access to the correct contracts and the ability to tailor their efforts to whichever country their contractor is working from, making it a potentially good option for those considering hiring remote workers.

**Deel Contractor plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **Locally compliant contracts:** If your contractor lives in one of the 150 countries Deel serves, you’ll be able to create, send, and sign contracts that comply with legislation in their specific location. 
-   **Automated invoicing:** To reduce your administrative load, especially if you have multiple contractors, automated invoicing ensures your contractors are paid based on your agreed-upon terms.
    
-   **Flexible payments for contractors:** Deel Engage offers 15 payment options — and supports 200+ currencies — so you can pay your contractors the way they want to be paid.
    
-   **24/7 support for contractors:** Deel Engage provides contractors with 24/7 support so they always have someone to contact about any potential payroll or HR concerns.
    

_Contractor profile management in Deel (_[_Source_](https://www.capterra.com/p/205015/Deel/)_)_

#### Deel US PEO

**Priced at:** $89 per employee per month

**Ideal for:** Business owners who want an expert to run payroll and handle compliance, benefits management, and HR administration

As a professional employer organization, Deel facilitates payroll, HR administration, and compliance so businesses can focus on more strategic goals and tasks. This can be especially useful for companies with small HR teams.

**Deel US PEO plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **New hire compliance:** Your Deel PEO plan will help ensure that all new hires go through the correct onboarding process, complete the right forms for their state, and are set up properly in the HR system so they can get to work quickly. 
-   **Centralized reporting:** With a centralized reporting system, users can easily access expense, payroll, hiring, and other crucial reports that can help inform changes for business growth.
    
-   **Dedicated support:** Your dedicated customer service manager will act as the intermediary between you and Deel, keeping you in the loop about HR processes and answering any questions you may have. They’ll also be able to help you navigate your HR platform and show you how you can make the most of it.
    
-   **State-specific contract and tax compliance:** Instead of your business having to manage multiple state laws and tax codes, Deel will take charge and ensure every contract abides by the employee's state labor laws. They’ll also apply the relevant tax information and file any relevant documentation for you.
    
-   **Benefits access**: Deel PEO gives your employees access to healthcare, retirement, and other benefits options that might normally be unattainable for small business employees.

#### Deel EOR

**Priced at:** $599 per month

**Ideal for:** Business owners who want an experienced third party to handle hiring, onboarding, and payroll for international employees

As an employer of record, Deel EOR can handle your HR admin and payroll needs for international workers, ensuring compliance and efficiency. This is useful for growing businesses that don’t want to establish a presence in all the countries in which they hire. 

**Deel EOR plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **International employee hiring and onboarding:** Deel can help you navigate complex international laws to hire employees from abroad and create compliant contracts for their location. They’ll also set up the right payroll information in line with local tax laws and payment preferences.
    
-   **Integrations:** While Deel includes robust HR and payroll capabilities, it works well as part of a wider tech stack, too. Deel EOR offers some 70 integrations with accounting, HR, productivity, provisioning, expense management, and other tools.

#### Deel Engage

**Priced at:** $20 per employee per month

**Deel Engage plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:**

### IT operations

#### Deel IT

**Priced at:** $99 per month

**Ideal for:** Companies that need comprehensive hardware and software management, including secure software access and device distribution and monitoring

When managing remote workers who need technology to do their jobs, it’s crucial to stay on top of your software and devices. Deel IT allows IT teams to easily track and monitor devices so they can keep them accessible to employees, safe, and compliant with internal security protocols.

**Deel IT plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:** 

-   **Preconfigured devices:** Deel IT lets you preconfigure work devices with your business software and security settings so new hires can use them right out of the box. This also helps ensure devices are working properly before they are shipped to remote workers.
    
-   **Remotely managed devices:** Deel IT allows IT teams to remotely monitor, manage, lock, and erase devices. This is important for making sure hardware is working properly for employees and protecting against data breaches or other security incidents.
    
-   **SSO and identity services:** Ensure your devices and software are encrypted with SSO (single sign-on) protocols. Having remote workers can increase the risk of potential security breaches, so adding additional layers of protection can safeguard your company's information.
    
-   **Software license management:** It’s important to know who has access to which software and which versions they are using, both for security and support reasons. Deel IT allows you to track any outdated software and stay on top of renewing subscriptions where necessary.

### Worker relocation

#### Deel Immigration

**Priced at:** Custom pricing; contact the provider for a quote

**Ideal for:** Global businesses that need help with the legal and HR processes of relocating workers, including bringing them to the U.S.

Whether you’re sending workers abroad or transferring a foreign citizen to your U.S.-based team, you’ll need legal help obtaining visas and work permits. Deel has a team of labor immigration experts who can help your business navigate the legal and administrative hurdles.

**Deel Immigration plan features**[**\[2\]**](#footnotes)**:**

-   **In-house immigration experts:** Deel Immigration offers access to a team of experts to make the process of relocating employees easier. These experts understand immigration law, visa processes, and sponsorships.
    
-   **Centralized visa management:** Monitoring visa applications can get complicated if you have multiple ongoing. By having a centralized visa management view, you can easily track your progress and take the appropriate action when necessary. You can also set up reminders to keep you up to date on any changes in application status.
    
-   **Free employee eligibility checks:** Before embarking on the long visa application process, it’s important to know if your employee is likely to be accepted. Deel offers free employee immigration eligibility checks for Deel Immigration customers to see how successful each employee visa application is likely to be.
    
-   **Case management:** Each Deel Immigration plan comes with a dedicated case manager who will oversee visa applications and connect users with the in-house team. They’ll also help keep users up to date with the process and let them know what they need to do, guiding them where necessary.

## Total cost of ownership

Beyond paying for your Deel subscription plan, you may also encounter additional costs. It’s crucial to take these into consideration before purchasing so you can adjust your budget accordingly. Here are some of the costs you can expect:

### Upfront costs

When considering upfront costs, you may encounter items such as software setup, initial customization, onboarding, and training. These are all added at the very beginning of your software purchase and ensure the first experience with the software goes smoothly.

With Deel, you won’t experience many upfront costs. In fact, your upfront cost is solely your Deel plan. Prices on the website are starting points, so depending on what you need from your plan, your price may go up. This is something you can discuss with the Deel sales team. 

### Additional costs to consider

Deel has some additional costs you’ll need to consider when creating your budget and making your purchasing decision.

-   **Add-on services:** Deel has five add-on services available for purchase: Background Checks, Workspaces, Deel Contractor of Record, Entity Set Up, and Equity. Each offers additional features that can boost your HR process, like running background checks on prospective hires or establishing global workspaces for employees. You must contact the provider for pricing.
    
-   **Third-party integration:** While Deel works well as part of a wider tech stack, most software has a subscription price. You’ll need to factor in these third-party software costs when budgeting for your tech solutions. For example, Deel has a dedicated plugin with Slack via the Deel Engage plan to facilitate communication and sync HR data. To make the most of this, you may need to pay to upgrade your Slack subscription.
    
-   **Onboarding and training:** While Deel has a resources library with user guides and tutorials, you may opt to pay for in-person training either from a Deel manager or a third-party Deel expert.
    
-   **Localized global services**: Deel offers ample support for international payroll and HR. However, if your business requires other localized services like legal services, consulting, or accounting, you will need to source this elsewhere. Deel has a list of partners that offer these services you can choose from if you need help.
    

#### Services needed to implement and manage the software

Deel offers learning materials to help get users up to speed with the platform, including blog posts, guides, videos, and more. It also offers free calculators to help you understand the costs of hiring in certain countries.

Customer support is also important when using new software. Deel offers 24/7 support on most plans. Some plans also come with a dedicated customer service manager who can help you troubleshoot any issues and guide you on how to best use the platform.

Deel is a cloud-based platform, so any software maintenance is carried out remotely, reducing IT costs for users and minimizing software downtime. This also means users always have access to the latest updates. 

#### Internal resources needed for ongoing platform management

To make the most of Deel, you’ll need a team that can maximize its potential. This may include:

-   **Deel administrator:** Appointing a liaison between your team and Deel can ensure efficient communication that helps the business grow. An administrator can give feedback to Deel and inform the team of new features and updates that may make work more efficient.
    
-   **Security and compliance officer:** Deel has built-in compliance systems for payroll and HR processes. However, unless you are on an EOR or PEO plan, it is always wise to have a dedicated compliance officer (depending on the size of your company) to make sure that these processes are being adhered to and that employees accessing the system are implementing them. 
-   **Training and onboarding coordinator:** Having a training coordinator for the platform can help make the onboarding process easier for new HR and payroll hires. It also helps keep a sense of uniformity about how your business uses the platform.
    
-   **Data analyst:** Deel creates detailed reports, but without someone who can understand them and extrapolate relevant insights, they aren’t very helpful. Having a data analyst will ensure insights from your reports don’t go unrecognized.
    

## How to choose the right Deel pricing plan 

Choosing the right plan for you is a big decision. To help you, here are some key considerations to make:

_Key considerations while choosing the right Deel plan_

-   **Assess your business needs:** Think about your current business structure and immediate growth goals. How does each plan align with them? You may find that if you’re a smaller business, you can’t fully utilize all the features in the more expensive packages, but perhaps the free Deel HR plan is a good starting point. Likewise, if you are planning an extensive global expansion in the next few months, would a Deel EOR or Deel Immigration plan support your growth?
    
-   **Compare features offered in each plan:** Picking the best plan means choosing which one has the most features you’ll actually use. There is no point in getting a more expensive plan if you are only going to use a handful of features — you can always upgrade later if you want. You’ll also want to consider your current tech stack. Do any features overlap with your current subscriptions? Is there a plan that doesn’t, or are you looking to replace some of your current software with Deel? Having the same features across multiple software means you can’t make the most of it.
    
-   **Consider your budget:** Purchasing new software or services is a big investment, so it’s important to budget for it. Think about the costs we discussed earlier and see if the total fits into your budget. If you’re not sure if the price is worth it, you can always start with Deel HR for free or take advantage of the free 30-minute demo they offer.  

## How to maximize the value of your Deel subscription

To make the most of your Deel plan, you’ll want to leverage every feature offered to you. Here’s how:

_Ways to maximize the value of your Deel subscription_

-   **Utilize all features:** Whichever plan you choose, you want to make sure you take advantage of all the features it comes with. To do so, make a plan of how to incorporate each one into your business. If you’re unsure how a certain feature will fit into your workflows, contact the support team for advice on using specific features and integrating them into your workflows.
    
-   **Customer support and resources:** All plans come with 24/7 support where you can ask questions to help improve your Deel experience. You can also access the Deel Resource Hub on its website, which has plenty of templates, tutorials, and useful calculators. If your plan comes with a dedicated CSM manager, make the most of their expertise. Ask plenty of questions like how other people in your industry use the platform to their benefit or little-known use cases that could boost your productivity and maximize your ROI.
    

**Additional tips to tailor your plan to your needs:**

-   Set up custom automations like payslip creation to boost productivity.
    
-   Make use of customized reporting to find areas for improvement within your HR and payroll processes.
    
-   Appoint a training coordinator who will make onboarding more efficient and learn and communicate about new features.
    

## Is it worth paying for Deel?

Whether Deel is worth investing in depends on your needs and budget. Here's a breakdown to help you decide:

### Value for money

Deel has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 for its value for money and rates 4.8 out of 5 overall based on 1981 user reviews over the past two years. Many users find Deel’s core offering to be worth the money but feel that additional costs can quickly add up and make the software less affordable. Of the reviews analyzed, 26% agreed that the platform offered good value for money, with a further 4% considering the software expensive but worth the price. There is a general consensus among users that Deel may not offer the best value for money for small businesses and is instead more suited to larger teams with global needs. More than 95% of reviewers who addressed small business affordability said Deel was expensive.

## Is Deel right for you?

### Assessing your requirements

Determining whether Deel is the right software involves assessing your requirements and comparing them to what Deel offers. Here are some key factors to consider:

-   **Team size:** For plans paid per employee, you need to consider if the price is affordable for the number of staff you have. You’ll also need to decide if this is scalable as your business grows.
    
-   **Your business infrastructure**: The more affordable options with Deel require you to have an HR and payroll team implemented within your business. However, if you don’t have that structure, you’ll need to decide if a PEO or EOR better fits your business structure.
    
-   **Integration needs:** You should check to see how easy it is to integrate your current tech stack with Deel. There is an integration library on Deel’s website that you can use to verify this, and you can also contact its support team.
    
-   **Support and training requirements:** You’ll need to decide if the plan you choose has the right level of support for your liking. If you want a dedicated customer support manager, you may have to opt for a different plan or discuss the possibility of paying for this as an additional cost in your plan.
