What is Native Teams?
Most EORs were built for the employer; Native Teams started with the employee. It began in North Macedonia in 2020, giving freelancers a local employment contract and a way to get paid from abroad.
The product still shows it. Employees get a multi-currency wallet, payment cards and a mobile app alongside their payslip.
The employer side now reaches 95+ countries, where Native Teams says it holds its own entities instead of partners. EOR starts at $99 per employee per month, though deposits and billing terms only appear in a quote.
Deel and Remote both list $599, six times Native Teams’ rate. The catch is a thinner platform, with no published integrations and support that varies sharply between reviews.

Native Teams Review: Editor’s Verdict
Native Teams is the low-cost pick for small teams hiring a handful of people abroad. At $99 per employee a month, it saves roughly $500 per hire against Deel’s list price, and one account covers EOR, contractor cover and payouts. Buyers who need deep HR tooling or guaranteed service levels should keep looking.
Native Teams pairs a $99 rate with a claim of owned entities in 95+ countries, a combination Deel and Remote charge $599 for. Confirm the entity in your hiring country and the price is hard to argue with.
Employees and contractors drive the 4.7 public rating, praising payouts, the wallet and named support agents. Our 3.4 reflects what those reviews skip: no published integrations, unpublished deposit terms, and a run of 2025 and 2026 G2 reviews from employers reporting late salaries and slow replies. Trustpilot has also suspended its score for a guideline breach.
Before signing, get three things in writing: the legal entity that will employ your hire, the deposit and notice terms, and a named account contact with response times. Ask how offboarding works too, since one recent G2 reviewer describes a drawn-out termination followed by a request to repay overtime.
Editorial Score Breakdown
Native Teams Pros & Cons 2026
Native Teams scores well with the people it pays and less consistently with the companies paying for it. Both columns draw on G2, Capterra and Trustpilot reviews from the past year.
Strengths
$99 EOR rate, listed openly
The price is on the pricing page before any sales call. Deel lists $599 for the same service.
No reseller layer claimed
Native Teams says it employs staff through its own entities in 95+ countries. If that holds, payroll questions go to the employer itself instead of being relayed to a local partner and back.
Wallet, cards and mobile apps
Employees can hold several currencies, spend by card, and manage pay on iOS or Android.
Employees and contractors, one vendor
Contractor of Record at $99 and Contractor Pay at $19 sit on the same account as EOR, so a mixed team needs one contract.
Support agents known by name
G2 counts 65 reviews praising support, many naming the agent who resolved the problem.
Visa help in-house
Work permit and relocation support come from the same provider, not a second vendor.
Areas to Watch
No published integrations
Native Teams does not publish a native integrations list.
Late salaries in recent reviews
Several 2025 and 2026 G2 reviews from employers report delayed salary payments, incorrect invoices and onboarding that took weeks. Most come from small businesses, the segment the low price targets.
Trustpilot score suspended
Trustpilot withholds the rating for a guideline breach, and one reviewer there alleges the company offered €25 for five-star reviews.
Contract terms only on quote
Deposit, minimum term and billing frequency are absent from the pricing page, so the full cost of a $99 hire stays unknown until sales replies.
Native Teams Top Features
Two things set Native Teams apart: it says it employs through its own entities, and it hands employees a wallet and cards as part of getting paid. The rest is a standard EOR package, with contractor, entity and relocation services sold separately.
Owned-entity EOR.
DifferentiatorNative Teams states that it is the legal employer in each of its 95+ countries through entities it holds, rather than routing hires through a local partner. In practice, that should leave one party accountable for payroll and compliance questions. Request the entity’s registered name for your country before you sign, as we could not confirm ownership independently.
Multi-currency wallet and cards.
DifferentiatorEmployees and contractors can hold, convert and spend several currencies from a Native Teams wallet, with virtual and physical cards attached. The wallet runs on iOS and Android apps. Reviewers mention a wait of up to 72 hours to top up the physical card, so it works better for spending than for urgent cash.
Gig Pay.
DifferentiatorBuilt for platforms paying high volumes of on-demand workers, with recurring multi-currency payouts and compliant contractor agreements. Pricing is custom. Native Teams also publishes a playbook on the EU Platform Work Directive, which matters to gig platforms hiring in the EU.
Local employment contracts.
CoreCountry-specific contracts are drafted and managed by Native Teams for every EOR hire.
Payroll, tax and benefits.
CoreMonthly payroll, tax withholding and statutory contributions are processed locally, with payslips issued to employees. Supplementary benefits vary by country.
Absence management.
CoreEmployees request leave in the platform and admins approve it against local entitlements.
Expense management.
CoreStaff submit receipts for approval and reimbursement inside the platform. One reviewer notes approvals can lag when the employer’s own sign-off is slow.
Contractor of Record.
Add-onFrom $99 per contractor a month, with localised agreements and misclassification cover. For payouts without the compliance layer, Contractor Pay starts at $19.
Relocation and visa assistance.
Add-onWork permit applications and relocation support, quoted separately.
Entity management.
Add-onFor companies ready to open their own entity: $149 a month for ongoing management, plus a one-time setup fee that varies by country.
Is Native Teams the Right EOR for You?
Native Teams makes sense when price and a single vendor for mixed worker types outweigh integrations and support guarantees.
Best For
- Startups hiring one to ten people abroad on a tight budget
- Teams combining EOR employees, contractors and gig workers on one account
- Buyers who want a published EOR price before speaking to sales
- Employers whose staff value a multi-currency wallet and card
- Companies that need visa and relocation help alongside hiring
Skip If
- You need HRIS or accounting sync: Remote publishes BambooHR, QuickBooks and Xero integrations
- You hire beyond 95 countries: Deel covers 150+
- You need weekend support or guaranteed response times
- You want deposit and contract terms in writing before a sales call
- You need detailed cost reporting across many countries
Native Teams Country Coverage
Hire and pay employees compliantly across 95+ countries. The grid shows a sample; Native Teams does not publish a full country list, so confirm your hiring country with its team.
Native Teams Pricing 2026
Native Teams prices per person per month, with EOR and Contractor of Record both at $99 and Contractor Pay at $19. Each plan includes one free admin account, but billing frequency, deposits and minimum term are left to the quote.
Native Teams Integrations
Native Teams publishes no native integrations list and no public API documentation. Its own EOR landing page says integration options are shared on a demo call, so treat any connector as unconfirmed until it is named in your contract. One Trustpilot reviewer who signed up for a promised BambooHR integration left a critical review. If payroll data must sync automatically with your HRIS or accounting system, Remote and Deel both publish integration libraries.
How Native Teams Compares to Alternatives
Buyers usually shortlist Native Teams against Deel, Remote, Multiplier, RemoFirst and Oyster HR. Native Teams undercuts all five on the EOR fee, from RemoFirst’s $199 up to $699 at Remote and Oyster, but trails Deel and Remote on published integrations and Deel and Multiplier on country count.
Native Teams vs DeelWider coverage and integrations at six times the price
Native Teams vs RemotePublished integrations and owned entities, at $699 monthly
Native Teams vs Multiplier150+ countries for roughly four times the fee
Native Teams vs RemoFirstClosest on price, wider reach, partner entities only
Native Teams vs Oyster HRContractor coverage in 180+ countries, EOR at $699
Native Teams User Community Ratings & Reviews
Scores below come from reading G2, Capterra and Trustpilot reviews posted over the past year. Ease of Use rates highest, driven by freelancers and employees paid through the platform, while Platform Stability & Integrations rates lowest on repeated slow-loading complaints and the lack of published connectors.

Ratings as of 5 October 2026. Trustpilot has withheld Native Teams’ score for a breach of its review guidelines, so the 4.7 public rating and 368-review total use G2 and Capterra only. Many G2 reviews come from freelancers and employees paid through Native Teams rather than the employers buying it, and some were invited with a gift card. Sentiment split estimated from reading the most recent 50 G2 reviews plus Capterra and Trustpilot samples.

Native Teams EOR: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions buyers ask before evaluating Native Teams as an Employer of Record solution.
How many countries does Native Teams cover for EOR?
Native Teams covers 95+ countries for EOR, according to its current homepage and pricing page. Some of its older landing pages still say 85+, and it publishes no full country list, so check that your hiring country is live before you commit.
How much does Native Teams EOR cost?
EOR costs $99 per employee per month, on top of salary and employer contributions. Contractor of Record is also $99 a month, Contractor Pay is $19, Entity Management starts at $149 plus a setup fee, and Gig Pay is priced on request.
How long does Native Teams take to onboard an employee?
Usually days, sometimes weeks. G2 reviewers report anything from five days to more than a month, with document checks the most common cause of delay. Native Teams does not publish a standard onboarding time.
Does Native Teams own its legal entities?
Native Teams states that it owns and operates the legal entity in every country where it offers EOR. We could not verify that against public company registers, and one Capterra reviewer suspects outside providers prepare some payroll calculations. Ask for the registered entity name in your hiring country and have it written into the contract.
Should I use Native Teams EOR or Contractor of Record?
Use EOR for anyone who works like an employee: fixed hours, ongoing role, your direction. Contractor of Record suits genuine independent contractors and adds misclassification protection, while Contractor Pay at $19 only handles payments and carries no classification cover.
What compliance certifications does Native Teams hold?
We found no ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certificate published by Native Teams. Its website shows registration with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office for data protection and links to the PCI Security Standards Council for its card products.
What size of company is Native Teams best for?
Companies hiring roughly one to ten people abroad. Most G2 reviewers work at businesses with 50 or fewer staff, and larger employers tend to need the integrations and detailed reporting Native Teams does not yet publish.
How does Native Teams handle employee terminations?
Offboarding is included in the EOR fee and managed by Native Teams. Its site gives no detail on notice handling, severance or exit charges, and a 2026 G2 reviewer describes a delayed termination followed by a request to repay overtime. Get the termination process and any exit costs in writing.
Does Native Teams have a mobile app?
Yes, on iOS and Android, focused on wallet, card and payment features.
