Both providers have global reach, offering services in 180+ countries.

With Horizons, you only pay for the services you use. The core EOR solution starts from $299 per employee, and then any additional service, such as recruitment, visa support, or contractor hire is an optional extra.

By contrast, Globalization Partners (G-P) offers services only in pre-set packages, such as G-P Meridian Prime and G-P Meridian Core, which may not line up with the specific needs of your business.

Both providers pay employees in the relevant local currency and take care of calculating and remitting payroll taxes and other mandatory contributions to the relevant authorities.
