- Choose Deel if
- you want a published price to budget against, and may also need contractors or a US PEO: Deel lists $599 EOR, $49 contractor, $325 contractor of record and $125 US PEO per month.
- Choose Rippling if
- you already run, or plan to run, HR, IT and finance on Rippling and want EOR employees inside the same system; expect a custom quote for the platform plus EOR rather than a list price.

Pricing, side by side
Deel publishes its Employer of Record at $599 per employee per month, described as a “starting at” price, with EOR in 130+ countries. Contractor management is $49, contractor of record $325 and the US PEO $125 per employee per month. The page does not state a deposit policy and describes currency exchange as “competitive” without a percentage.
Rippling does not publish an EOR price. Its Global Employer of Record is sold as part of the Rippling platform (HR, payroll, IT, finance), and the pricing page routes every product to a custom quote based on services and headcount. No deposit or FX policy is published for EOR.
What the scenario shows
The numbers above price the same hire through both. Because Rippling’s fee is unknown, its column stops at salary plus statutory charges; the table on the countries below does the same for every country this site covers. When you receive Rippling’s quote, add it to that figure to compare like for like.
Who each one fits
Deel is the budgeting choice: a published floor, published prices for contractors and PEO, and a table you can hold the quote against. Rippling is the consolidation choice: if the rest of your stack is moving to Rippling, EOR inside the same system may justify a quote that is not public.
Most of what ranks for this comparison is about the lawsuit between the two companies, not about pricing. That dispute is real and ongoing; it is also outside what this page measures. Price the hire, ask both for the terms in writing, and weigh the litigation separately.
Get both quotes for the same scenario.
Send each provider the same salary, country and headcount, and ask for the deposit, the FX rule and the mandatory add-ons in writing.

Questions people ask before booking a demo
- Does Rippling publish its EOR price?
- No. On 2 September 2026 Rippling's pricing page asked for a custom quote ('Tell us what services you need, and we'll send you a custom quote') and its Global EOR page carried no price. Deel publishes a starting price of $599 per employee per month.
- Can I compare Deel and Rippling on total cost?
- Only partly. Salary and statutory employer charges are identical through both; this page prices them for the scenario shown. The provider fee is published for Deel and quoted for Rippling, so the Rippling column shows the cost before its fee.
- Which one is better for contractors?
- Deel publishes a $49 per contractor per month plan and a $325 contractor of record. Rippling offers global contractor payments as part of its platform but did not publish a per-contractor price on the pages read.
- Does the Rippling–Deel lawsuit change which one to choose?
- The two companies are in a public legal dispute over alleged corporate spying; in 2026 the case was still active (Staffing Industry Analysts reported Deel moving to strike a witness, and TechCrunch has covered the affair). This page compares published prices and terms only and takes no view on the litigation. If it matters to your procurement, read both companies' newsrooms before you sign.
