G-P EOR Pricing: The Short Version
G-P (formerly Globalization Partners) is the original EOR platform and still the most expensive, charging $800–$1,000+ per employee per month depending on country, volume, and contract terms. There’s no public pricing page — you’re requesting a quote from day one. That enterprise-first approach gets you owned entities in every market, deep compliance infrastructure, and white-glove service. But for companies under 50 employees, you’re paying a 33–67% premium over Deel or Remote for capabilities you may not need.
In practice, teams apply this guidance faster when they pair it with best EOR providers, remote roles in this market, and the Employer of Record glossary.
What G-P Publishes on Its Website
G-P doesn’t publish pricing. Their website says “request a proposal” and routes you to a sales team. This is standard for enterprise-focused providers, but frustrating if you’re trying to budget before committing to a sales conversation.
What’s known from market data and customer reports:
| Service | Estimated Price Range |
|---|---|
| EOR (Employer of Record) | $800–$1,000+/mo per employee |
| Contractor Management | Included or custom |
| G-P Meridian Suite (HRIS) | Included with EOR |
| Global Payroll | Custom pricing |
| Advisory Services | Custom pricing |
G-P rebranded its platform as G-P Meridian in 2023, bundling EOR, contractor, payroll, and advisory into a unified suite. The bundling makes it harder to compare component pricing, which is likely intentional.
What You Actually Pay
G-P’s higher base fee means the hidden costs stack on top of an already-premium foundation.
No published pricing = no negotiation baseline. The first price G-P quotes is rarely the final one, but without a public reference point, you’re negotiating blind. Always get competing quotes from Deel and Remote before engaging G-P’s sales team — it gives you leverage and a realistic benchmark.
Salary deposits. G-P requires deposits similar to the industry standard — typically 1–2 months of gross salary per employee. At the enterprise scale G-P targets, these deposits can tie up significant capital. For 50 employees at $10,000/month average, that’s $500K–$1M in deposits.
FX markups. G-P’s FX spreads are less transparent than Deel’s or Remote’s. Customer reports suggest 1–2% above mid-market rates, but this varies by contract. On $5M in annual payroll, a 1.5% spread costs $75,000/year. Ask for the exact rate in your contract — G-P’s enterprise clients have the leverage to negotiate this down.
Benefits administration. G-P includes benefits admin in the base fee for most plans, but supplemental benefits still carry markups. The admin layer is more comprehensive than most — G-P can manage complex multi-country benefits programs that smaller providers can’t handle. That capability costs more, and it should.
Implementation fees. G-P may charge implementation or setup fees for large deployments, particularly those requiring custom integrations with your HRIS, payroll, or ERP systems. These can run $10,000–$50,000+ depending on complexity. Smaller EOR providers typically don’t charge setup fees at all.
Minimum commitments. G-P often requires annual contracts with minimum headcount commitments. If you commit to 50 employees and only end up with 30, you may still pay for 50. Read the contract carefully.
Real-World Cost Example
A team of 25 employees across the US-adjacent countries (UK, Germany, India, Singapore, Australia) at $10,000/month average salary:
| Cost Component | Monthly | Annual |
|---|---|---|
| EOR fees (25 × $900 avg) | $22,500 | $270,000 |
| FX spread (~1.5% on $250K payroll) | ~$3,750 | ~$45,000 |
| Benefits markup (~$75/employee) | ~$1,875 | ~$22,500 |
| Total real cost | ~$28,125 | ~$337,500 |
| Deposit (one-time, returned) | $250,000–$500,000 | — |
That’s $13,500/employee/year — roughly 50% above the estimated $10,800/year base rate. And it’s 58% more than what Deel would cost for the same team.
Volume Discounts
G-P’s discount structure is entirely opaque, but here’s what the market reports:
| Headcount | Typical Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1–9 employees | $900–$1,100/mo | G-P may not accept accounts this small |
| 10–24 employees | $850–$1,000/mo | Minimum viable engagement |
| 25–49 employees | $750–$900/mo | Sweet spot for negotiation |
| 50–99 employees | $650–$800/mo | Multi-year commitment leverage |
| 100+ employees | $550–$700/mo | Custom enterprise pricing |
G-P’s discount curves are steeper than mid-market providers because the starting price is higher. At 100+ employees, G-P’s negotiated rate approaches Deel’s list price. The question is whether the owned-entity model, deeper compliance infrastructure, and enterprise support justify paying 2× for your first 25 employees while you scale to that discount.
How G-P Pricing Compares
| Provider | EOR Monthly Fee | Pricing Model | Owned Entities? | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| G-P | $800–$1,000+ | Quote-based | Yes, all countries | Enterprise 50+ employees, regulated industries |
| Deel | $599 | Published | ~60% owned | Mid-market, contractor-heavy teams |
| Remote | $599 | Published | Yes, all countries | Compliance-first at mid-market price |
| Papaya Global | $650–$770 | Semi-published | Mixed | Enterprise with payroll analytics needs |
| Atlas HXM | $500–$700 | Quote-based | Yes, all countries | Enterprise, cost-sensitive alternative to G-P |
The uncomfortable comparison for G-P is Remote. Remote offers owned entities in all its markets at $599/month — $200–$400/month less than G-P. Remote’s country coverage is smaller (80+ vs G-P’s 180+), and the platform is less mature for enterprise workflows. But for companies in the 10–50 employee range, Remote delivers 90% of G-P’s compliance value at 60% of the cost.
Is G-P EOR Worth the Price?
For genuine enterprise deployments (50+ employees, complex compliance requirements, multiple HRIS integrations), G-P’s premium can be justified. For everyone else, it’s hard to make the math work.
What you get for $800–$1,000+/month: The deepest country coverage in the market (180+ countries), owned entities everywhere, an enterprise-grade platform with HRIS/ERP integrations, dedicated account management, and the compliance infrastructure of the company that pioneered the EOR model. G-P has been doing this longer than anyone.
Where it falls short: Price. G-P’s premium over Deel and Remote has narrowed in terms of features — both competitors have caught up on platform quality, compliance depth, and speed. The remaining gap is country coverage breadth and enterprise integration depth. If you don’t need 180 countries or SAP/Workday integrations, you’re paying for capabilities you won’t use.
When the premium makes sense: Global enterprises deploying 100+ employees across 20+ countries, companies in heavily regulated industries (financial services, pharmaceuticals, defense), and organizations with complex ERP integration requirements. G-P’s enterprise sales motion and implementation team are genuinely better than mid-market providers for these use cases.
Pricing by Use Case
1–5 employees: Don’t use G-P. Seriously. You’ll pay $800–$1,100/month for the same service Deel or Remote delivers at $599. G-P’s sales team may not even want your business at this size. Start with Deel or Remote.
5–20 employees: Still hard to justify G-P unless you’re in a regulated industry and need maximum compliance defensibility. Remote at $599/month with owned entities covers this use case at 35–45% lower cost.
20–50 employees: G-P starts becoming relevant if you’re deploying across 10+ countries with complex benefits and integration requirements. Get quotes from G-P, Remote, and Deel. Use the mid-market quotes as leverage.
50+ employees: This is G-P’s sweet spot. At $650–$800/month negotiated, the premium over Deel/Remote narrows to $100–$200/month. The enterprise infrastructure, dedicated team, and broader country coverage may justify the gap. Run a total-cost comparison including implementation, integrations, and ongoing admin overhead.
When Not to Use This Approach
Your team is under 10 employees and you’re price-conscious. At $800–$1,000+/month per head, G-P costs 30–50% more than Deel or Multiplier for comparable coverage. For small teams, that premium buys you enterprise SLAs and compliance infrastructure you’re unlikely to need until you’re much larger.
You need rapid self-serve onboarding. G-P’s model is relationship-driven and enterprise-focused — which means a sales and implementation process even for straightforward deployments. If you need someone employed next week without a procurement cycle, look at Deel or Multiplier.
Your primary markets are in Southeast Asia or Africa. G-P’s owned-entity advantage — the feature that justifies the premium — is strongest in North America, Europe, and a handful of key APAC markets. In Southeast Asia and Africa, G-P’s coverage is thinner, and the owned-entity benefit largely disappears.
You’re a startup that needs flexibility, not enterprise contract terms. G-P is built for Fortune 500 risk requirements: multi-year agreements, SLA frameworks, enterprise indemnification provisions. For seed or Series A companies that need an EOR for 2–3 employees in a new market, the contract structure and pricing model is mismatched to your stage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why doesn’t G-P publish its pricing?
Enterprise positioning. G-P wants every engagement to go through its sales team so they can customize pricing by country mix, headcount, contract length, and integration complexity. It also prevents direct price comparisons with Deel and Remote, which is strategically useful when your price is 33–67% higher. The downside is that budget-conscious companies disqualify G-P before they even start the conversation.
Can small companies (under 20 employees) use G-P?
Technically yes — G-P has no published minimum. But the pricing makes little sense below 20 employees. You’ll pay $800–$1,100/month for a service that Deel, Remote, or Multiplier delivers at $400–$599/month. G-P’s enterprise features (advanced integrations, dedicated compliance teams, custom reporting) don’t benefit small teams.
How does G-P’s pricing compare to setting up your own entity?
Entity setup costs $15,000–$50,000 per country upfront plus $3,000–$8,000/month in ongoing costs. At G-P’s rates ($900/month per employee), the break-even versus entity setup is roughly 8–12 employees per country — lower than the 12–15 employee break-even with cheaper providers. Ironically, G-P’s higher pricing makes the case for entity setup stronger at smaller team sizes.
