Get dedicated HR experts, predictable (and transparent) pricing, and support for complex employee situations—without juggling multiple vendors. Oyster is an Employer of Record that helps you employ and care for talent in 180+ countries—without opening legal entities or stitching together local vendors. From one intuitive platform, you can generate compliant contracts, run payroll, and offer competitive, country-specific benefits to employees and contractors around the world. But software is only half the story. When you are navigating a termination in France, figuring out benefits benchmarks in Singapore, or supporting someone who wants to move from Germany to Portugal, a help article isn’t enough. With Oyster, you get in-house HR and legal experts who know local laws and cultural nuances and can respond in minutes, not days. They’re not an add-on or an outsourced call center. They’re part of what you’re paying for. For your US workforce, Oyster PEO lets you outsource payroll, benefits, and HR administration through a co-employment model. We act as the administrative employer, managing payroll, benefits, retirement, and compliance, while you stay focused on directing work, performance, compensation, and career growth. It’s a simple way to stay compliant and competitive in the US without building a large HR function in-house. We also believe how you build your team matters as much as who you hire. Oyster is the only B Corp-certified global employment provider in the market, which means we’re independently vetted for how we treat people and run our business. Our pricing is transparent and predictable—no surprise fees for offboarding, benefits administration, or “gotchas” buried in the invoice. For HR, Legal, Finance, and C-suite leaders, that adds up to less risk, fewer distractions, and more room to focus on growth. You move into new markets faster, give every team member a fair and consistent experience, and know you have a partner who’ll tell you the right thing to do, not just the easy thing. If you’re planning to expand globally—or want more confidence in how you run your US and international teams—Oyster is here to help you do it right. * * * Product Website Oyster Seller [Oyster](https://www.g2.com/sellers/oyster-0b7bddd7-f6e0-4a4b-a2d4-c5adc112dd9b) Discussions [Oyster Community](https://www.g2.com/products/oyster-oyster/discuss) Languages Supported English Solution Type All-in-One Overview by Mathilde Dechansiaud (Demand Gen at Oyster | Work from Anywhere Advocate ✨) Show More ## Pricing Pricing provided by Oyster. ### EOR Employee of Record Starting at $699.00 Per Month [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/oyster-oyster/pricing) ## Oyster Integrations (13) What do users say about integrations?

What I appreciate most about Oyster is the ability to hire and manage employees compliantly across multiple countries through a single platform. It simplifies what would otherwise be a complex process involving local legal, payroll, and compliance requirements. The platform provides clear visibility into contracts, payroll, and employment obligations, which helps teams operate with confidence when expanding internationally.

KK kehkasha k. 12/23/2025 "Seamless Onboarding, Exceptional Support" 5/5 What do you like best about Oyster? I find the user interface of Oyster easy to use, with clear guidelines that make navigating the platform straightforward during onboarding. I really appreciate the prompt support; whenever I get stuck, I can always reach out to someone who resolves my issues pretty quickly. I recently had to upload documents, and the process was very straightforward thanks to the intuitive UI and clear guidelines. When I faced a brief issue during verification, my onboarding manager responded immediately and assisted me in resolving it, which made the overall experience smooth and stress-free. The initial setup was perfect, which adds to Oyster's appeal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Oyster? There's an option on the homepage or dashboard to contact the onboarding manager, but that button doesn't seem to work. Since I already had her email, I was able to reach out to her directly for help. However, if someone doesn't have the email, it might be difficult for them to get support when that option isn't functional. I think this is something that could be improved. Also, I feel Oyster AI could be trained for better responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Oyster solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like that Oyster is not very difficult to use, which makes it easier for my team. We have a great account manager who assists us well. I appreciate that they guide us through their processes and flag anything that doesn't seem correct, especially from a legal standpoint. This helps us ensure that we're doing things the right way, which is exactly what we want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Oyster? Sometimes they are not very flexible adapting to what we want. Also, they don't have entities open in all countries they serve, so they use third parties. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I really like how easy it is to get things done and problems solved with Oyster. If there's no immediate answer, it takes no longer than twenty-four hours to solve it, which is great. I find the form quite straightforward, where I can ask questions and get answers, it's pretty amazing. The initial setup is quite easy, too.
