Warp vs Deel

Deel is built for global EOR and international contractors–their US payroll is still in beta with known limitations. Warp is built US-first with mature, reliable payroll and compliance. If your primary need is US payroll and benefits, Warp is the better choice. We handle global contractors in 150+ countries too.

Warp costs $35/employee/month all-in with transparent pricing. Deel has no transparent pricing for US payroll and charges per-transaction fees for international payments. For US-focused companies, Warp is more affordable and predictable.

Warp pays contractors in 150+ countries with zero hidden FX fees. The difference: Warp is built US-first with robust domestic payroll, while Deel's US payroll is still maturing. If you have mostly US employees plus some international contractors, Warp is optimized for that mix.

Warp handles state tax registrations automatically across all 50 states–free and fully automated. Deel's US payroll requires manual registration in many cases. For companies hiring across multiple US states, Warp's compliance automation is significantly more mature.

Warp publishes live support stats at joinwarp.com/support-status that update hourly–we have nothing to hide. We're available via live chat, Slack, phone, video calls, and email, with a 1 minute median response time and 5/5 CSAT. Deel's support is often email and chatbot-based with slower response times. When you have payroll issues, you need immediate help from real humans.

Most companies switch in 1-2 weeks. Warp offers free migration and our team handles all data transfer and setup. If you're finding Deel's US payroll limitations frustrating, the switch to Warp is straightforward.

Yes–Warp is fully licensed nationally as a benefits brokerage, giving you expert guidance alongside the platform. We offer fully integrated healthcare plans, 401(k) retirement plans, HSA/FSA accounts, commuter benefits, and more. Deel's US benefits are limited compared to their international focus. For US-based teams, Warp provides comprehensive benefits that sync seamlessly with payroll.
