Native Teams review 2026: pricing, verdict & alternatives
Native Teams is the lowest-priced EOR we have reviewed, from $99 per employee per month across the 77 countries we have verified, strongest in Europe; skip it if you need integrations, self-service depth, or coverage beyond its map.

This is an independent review by Employ Borderless, the global hiring advisory platform that helps companies choose the right EOR, PEO, or global payroll provider. We are not an EOR provider. We help you choose one.
What is Native Teams?
Native Teams is an employer of record covering 95 countries, from $99 per employee per month, with contractor management from $19. It was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in Skopje.
That $99 is the lowest published employer of record rate of any provider reviewed on this site, where the range runs to $699. The rest of this review is about what the difference does and does not buy, because a low headline fee is only good news if the service behind it holds up.
Our verdict is that it fits small and mid-sized teams wanting affordable coverage with Europe as its strength, and that thin integrations are the trade, which means manual work on a complex setup. Native Teams rates 4.8 on G2 from 246 reviews and 3.6 on Trustpilot from 285.
Native Teams is a global Employer of Record and payment platform that helps companies hire employees and manage contractors across the 95+ countries it lists (without setting up local entities).
Founded in 2020 in Skopje, North Macedonia.
The platform operates as a legal employer on behalf of client companies, handling employment contracts, payroll processing, tax compliance, and benefits administration in each country. Companies manage daily work assignments while Native Teams handles the legal and administrative burden.
One platform for employees and contractors
Native Teams combines traditional EOR services with freelancer payment tools. Companies can hire full-time employees at $99 monthly per person or manage contractors at $19 monthly per person. The platform includes multi-currency wallets, payment cards, and dedicated IBAN accounts.The company focuses on European markets where they maintain a strong local presence and expertise, but they also support global hiring.
Their tiered pricing model scales with employee salaries. That's valuable for companies hiring in markets with lower compensation levels compared to flat-rate competitors.

How much does Native Teams cost?
Native Teams pricing starts from $99 per employee/month for employer of record and $19 per employee/month for contractors. That fee is the smallest part of what a team costs. At the starting fee, a team of 5 in Germany at $60,000 each costs about $368,534 in the first year through Native Teams: $300,000 in salaries, $62,594 in Germany statutory employer contributions and $5,940 in Native Teams fees. Another country produces a different total, because the statutory employer costs are set locally.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Employer of record | $99per employee/month |
| Contractors | $19per employee/month |

What a team of 5 in 🇩🇪 Germany, at $60,000 each, costs through Native Teams
The headline fee is the smallest line. Here is the estimated first-year total for the team.
| Base salaries5 × $60,000 | $300,000 |
| Statutory employer contributionsGermany employer rate, ~20.9% | $62,594 |
| Native Teams EOR feestarting fee $99/mo × 5 × 12 | $5,940 |

Estimate only. Statutory rates are Germany employer contributions (2025 data) on gross salary; caps, benefits, 13th-month pay and provider quotes vary. Native Teams's published fee is a starting price and the fee for Germany can be higher, so ask for that country's quote. Run your own numbers before budgeting.
Before you sign, ask Native Teams to confirm in writing
Undocumented fees only bind the provider once they are on paper. Where we have found a published figure it is named below; where we have not, ask for the number.
- In writing: whether a security deposit is required, how many months, and when it is refunded. We found no figure for it on Native Teams's own pages when we last looked in September 2026.
- In writing: the FX markup applied when payroll is funded in your currency. We found no figure for it on Native Teams's own pages when we last looked in September 2026.
- In writing: what offboarding or termination costs when an employee leaves. We found no figure for it on Native Teams's own pages when we last looked in September 2026.
- In writing: any one-time setup or onboarding fees per employee. We found no figure for it on Native Teams's own pages when we last looked in September 2026.
- In writing: the minimum contract term and what early exit costs. We found no figure for it on Native Teams's own pages when we last looked in September 2026.
What this means for you
Native Teams publishes a starting fee, and the fee for a given country can be higher, so ask for that country's quote. What changes most country by country is everything around it: the $62,594 of statutory contributions for this team in Germany is set by Germany, not by Native Teams, and you pay it whichever employer of record you choose. Compare providers on the fee and on what the fee includes, then run the total again for each country you hire in.

Read the pillar notes
Pricing
At $99 per employee per month, Native Teams sits at the lower end of EOR pricing. Providers like Deel ($599) and Remote ($699) charge more per employee
This places Native Teams among the more affordable options and earns a near-perfect rating of 4.9 out of 5 (0.1 deducted for some unclear add-on fees).
Country coverage
Native Teams states coverage in 95+ countries, which covers most major business markets and is strongest for companies focused on Europe.
Still, that's not close to the industry leaders in terms of coverage, like Remote, which operates in roughly 180 countries.
Compliance
Native Teams covers core employment compliance across its supported countries with localized contracts and payroll handling.
Based on my research, most standard cases run with no problems, with occasional administrative issues noted in user feedback.
Customer support
Native Teams provides timely support for standard needs and assigns dedicated account contacts.
From what I’ve seen, more complex cases show mixed results; that’s a decent 4.0 out of 5.
Features
Native Teams does the essential EOR work and has strong payment support, but it’s missing some of the extras that come with premium platforms.
For those reasons, I’m giving it an 4.0 out of 5.
Security
Native Teams documents its security and privacy practices and covers the core protections most teams expect.
Formal third-party certifications are less visible than with enterprise-grade platforms, which lowers the rating a few fractions of a point.
User experience
Native Teams has a functional interface with clear navigation, but some processes involve manual steps outside the main dashboard (more than I like to see).
I’m giving the platform 3.9 out of 5 for user experience and interface.
Analytics and reporting
Native Teams gives you standard reports for payroll, payments, employee costs, and compliance records. The reporting covers day-to-day tracking needs, but it’s focused on operational data rather than advanced analysis.
Integrations
Native Teams covers the basics when it comes to integrations, mostly everyday productivity tools. Anything more complex usually means extra manual steps.
Mobile app
Native Teams offers mobile apps on iOS and Android that cover essential tasks like balance checks, transactions, and basic account management. The app is useful for light access and basic tasks, but doesn’t yet match the depth or reliability of the web platform.
Why you can trust our reviews
We combine structured research with real-world global hiring experience. Our methodology is built by operators who've spent years working with EOR, PEO, and payroll providers across multiple markets.
- 10+ years in global hiring - hands-on experience selecting and working with EOR providers
- 5-layer research methodology - demos where providers grant access, review platforms (G2, Trustpilot, Capterra), communities, and provider validation
- The Employ Borderless Standard - our 10-pillar rating framework, scored out of 5 in half steps across features, country coverage, pricing, UX, support, integrations, mobile, analytics, security, and compliance
- Weighted review analysis - platforms with more reviews have higher impact (e.g. 2000 > 30)
- Independent - rankings are not influenced by affiliate partnerships
Built by practitioners, not publishers - so you can rely on it for real hiring decisions.
What Native Teams does well
Lower EOR costs
At $99 per employee per month, the platform charges much less than premium providers.
Built-in global payments
Wallets, cards, and IBAN accounts handle cross-border money without extra tools.
Employees and contractors, together
Manage both in one platform at predictable monthly rates.
Strong EU footing
Better coverage and experience in European hiring than many globally spread platforms.
Dedicated account support
A named contact handles questions and non-standard requests.
Fast onboarding
Most teams are set up within five to seven business days.
Clear pricing
Published rates with no regional markups make budgeting easier.
Where Native Teams falls short
Limited integrations
Connects to fewer third-party tools than larger EOR platforms.
Less automation depth
Some workflows require manual steps instead of full self-service.
Basic analytics
Reporting covers essentials but lacks customization and deeper insights.
Uneven support experiences
Simple issues move quickly, complex ones can take longer.
Smaller country list
The country list sits below the largest platforms, which reach 150 countries or more.
What are the features of Native Teams?
4.0 out of 5field average 4.3Native Teams does the essential EOR work and has strong payment support, but it’s missing some of the extras that come with premium platforms.
For those reasons, I’m giving it an 4.0 out of 5.
Native Teams brings together the key tools for managing international employees and contractors in one place.
The key features are:

- Lower expansion costs
- Hiring without local entities avoids incorporation fees and ongoing entity upkeep.
- Faster hiring timelines
- International employees can be onboarded in days instead of weeks.
- More reliable compliance
- Local employment rules are tracked and applied as they change. This reduces the risk of missed requirements.
- Simpler money movement
- Payroll, contractor payments, and expenses run through one system instead of multiple banks and tools.
- Clearer experience for employees
- Workers are hired locally, receive required benefits, and get paid through familiar methods.
- Less HR busywork

What is the geographic coverage of Native Teams?
4.0 out of 5field average 4.1Native Teams states coverage in 95+ countries, which covers most major business markets and is strongest for companies focused on Europe.
Still, that's not close to the industry leaders in terms of coverage, like Remote, which operates in roughly 180 countries.
Native Teams states coverage in 95+ countries, spanning the most common hiring markets across Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. That figure is the provider's own; we have not independently counted it.
Europe is the core focus
Europe is where Native Teams is most established. The company was founded and is headquartered in Skopje, North Macedonia, and its European coverage is backed by local teams and region-specific employment knowledge. For businesses hiring mainly in Europe, coverage is consistent and well supported.
Coverage beyond Europe
Outside the EU, Native Teams supports hiring in major business hubs such as the United States, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and several Latin American markets. Contractor management follows the same country list, with global payments handled through the platform's wallet and card system.
Who does the employing
Native Teams says it employs through entities it holds itself rather than through partners or resellers. We have not verified that country by country against public corporate registries, so treat the ownership claim as the provider's own rather than as a checked fact.
How it compares
Native Teams' country coverage is smaller than that of the largest EOR providers:
Deel: around 150 countries
Remote: 186 countries
Hire with Columbus: about 185 countries
What this means for you: Native Teams covers most standard international hiring locations, with particularly strong support in Europe. For small and mid-sized teams hiring in common markets, coverage is usually sufficient. Companies planning broad, multi-region expansion may still find a wider country list elsewhere.

Native Teams pricing
4.9 out of 5field average 4.3At $99 per employee per month, Native Teams sits at the lower end of EOR pricing. Providers like Deel ($599) and Remote ($699) charge more per employee
This places Native Teams among the more affordable options and earns a near-perfect rating of 4.9 out of 5 (0.1 deducted for some unclear add-on fees).
Native Teams pricing starts from $99 per employee/month for employer of record. Full price table and cost example
Native Teams charges $99 per employee per month for Employer of Record services.
The same rate applies across all supported countries. There are no country-based price increases.
What’s included
The base EOR price covers core employment services:
Local employment contracts
Payroll processing
Tax filings and statutory deductions
Standard benefits administration
HR support
One admin account
Contractor pricing
Contractors cost $19 per person per month. This includes invoicing, compliant agreements, global payments, and tax documentation.
This pricing works well for teams that manage both employees and contractors.
Additional costs
Some services are priced separately.
Visa and work permit support uses custom pricing. Fees depend on the destination country and visa type. Enhanced benefit packages vary by location and coverage level. Dedicated account management is included in higher tiers or offered as an add-on.
Cost comparison
Native Teams sits between budget platforms and premium providers on price.
Pricing differences become clear at scale; let’s look at one such example.
Native Teams: $990 per month for a 10-person international team
Premium EOR providers: $4,000 to $7,000 per month for the same team size
Estimated annual savings: $36,000 to $72,000
On the other hand, Hire with Columbus has a higher start rate than Native Teams for EOR but offers a broader country list.
What this means for you: Native Teams offers strong cost savings for standard EOR needs. Pricing stays predictable across countries.
What is the user experience of Native Teams like?
3.9 out of 5field average 4.2Native Teams has a functional interface with clear navigation, but some processes involve manual steps outside the main dashboard (more than I like to see).
I’m giving the platform 3.9 out of 5 for user experience and interface.
Native Teams uses a clean, minimal layout. The interface centers on core tasks. Most screens focus on day-to-day actions.
Dashboard and navigation
The main dashboard shows employee status, payroll activity, upcoming payments, and compliance items. Navigation follows a clear structure. Sections are separated by function.
Employees, contractors, payroll, expenses, and documents each have their own area.
Users can view:
Employee counts by country
Pending and completed payments
Compliance status
Transaction history
The interface supports routine administrative work. It does not include advanced analytics or deep customization.
Onboarding flow
Onboarding follows a guided sequence. Many standard cases finish in five to seven business days.
The process includes:
Employee information collection
Contract creation and signing
Local registrations
Payroll activation
Progress updates are provided during onboarding. Timelines vary by country and documentation requirements.
How work gets done
Native Teams uses assisted workflows alongside the platform. Some changes involve direct coordination with account managers. This includes contract updates and certain compliance actions.
Some companies prefer this approach, but others look for fully self-serve workflows and might be a better fit for other providers.
Mobile access
Native Teams provides mobile access for basic tasks.
Users can review payroll, expenses, and employee information on mobile. More involved administrative work is better handled on a desktop.
More on this in a dedicated section below.
Payments and finance tools
Payment tools are part of the platform. Wallets, cards, and expense tracking sit alongside payroll and contractor payments. Transaction records are available in one place.
What this means for you: Native Teams suits teams comfortable with simple dashboards and guided support. The platform covers daily operational needs. Companies that want advanced automation or mobile-first administration may prefer other options.
How is the customer support at Native Teams?
4.0 out of 5field average 4.3Native Teams provides timely support for standard needs and assigns dedicated account contacts.
From what I’ve seen, more complex cases show mixed results; that’s a decent 4.0 out of 5.
Native Teams provides several support options, with access and response times varying by request type and region. EOR clients also receive dedicated account managers, which shapes how most support interactions work.
Access and response times
Support is available through:
Email: primary channel, available 24/7
WhatsApp in some regions
Limited phone support (usually for complex cases escalated to managers)
Simple questions are usually answered within a few hours during business hours. More involved compliance requests take longer. Account setup changes and contract updates often require one to two business days. Non-urgent requests outside business hours are typically handled the next business day.
Quality and account manager support
User feedback shows mixed but consistent patterns. Many users report helpful support for standard EOR tasks, payment questions, and onboarding steps. Local, country-specific knowledge is often mentioned as a strength.
At the same time, some users report slower responses for urgent issues and uneven depth on complex cases. Communication gaps can appear during handoffs between teams.
EOR clients work directly with assigned account managers. These contacts handle contract updates, compliance changes, and escalated issues. This approach works best for teams managing multiple employees or ongoing changes.
Documentation and self-help
The knowledge base includes onboarding guides, country requirements, payment instructions, and FAQs. It covers common tasks well. More complex or country-specific questions usually move to direct support.
What this means for you: Native Teams offers reliable support for routine needs. The account manager model suits teams that prefer direct contact over self-service. Companies with frequent urgent issues or complex compliance demands may experience delays.
What integrations does Native Teams offer?
3.8 out of 5field average 4.0Native Teams covers the basics when it comes to integrations, mostly everyday productivity tools. Anything more complex usually means extra manual steps.
Native Teams connects with a small set of common productivity tools. These integrations focus on communication and file handling rather than deep system connections.
Supported tools
Native Teams integrates with:
Microsoft Outlook
Google Docs
Gmail
Slack
OneDrive
Dropbox Business
pCloud Business
These connections support basic workflows such as document sharing, communication, and file storage.
Scope and limits
The integration list covers core use cases. It does not extend far into HR systems, accounting platforms, or specialized business tools. Teams using more complex software stacks often rely on manual data entry.
Native Teams does not publish public API documentation, and independent reviews report no open API or native sync with the major HR systems. If that changes, I will update this section.
So, custom integrations and automated data flows are not a core strength. Larger platforms typically invest more heavily in these areas.
What this means for you: Native Teams works well for clients using standard productivity tools. Simple setups are easier to manage. Companies that depend on many integrations or custom data flows may find the platform limiting.
What about Native Teams's mobile app?
4.0 out of 5Native Teams offers mobile apps on iOS and Android that cover essential tasks like balance checks, transactions, and basic account management. The app is useful for light access and basic tasks, but doesn’t yet match the depth or reliability of the web platform.
Native Teams offers mobile apps on iOS and Android. The app focuses on basic account and payment visibility rather than full platform control.
What the apps support
The mobile apps allow users to handle simple, day-to-day tasks. These include:
Viewing wallet balances
Checking transaction history
Reviewing payments
Managing basic expense entries
Accessing account details
These functions work best for quick checks rather than active administration.
App quality and feedback
User feedback is mixed. Some users value being able to check balances and expenses on the go. Others point to unclear fees, slow processing at times, and gaps compared to the web platform.
Download volume and review counts remain relatively low. This suggests limited adoption rather than widespread mobile-first use.
Development pace
The apps receive regular updates. Recent releases added reimbursements, card controls, two-factor authentication, payroll-related actions, and expense features.
Based on my research, the development activity appears to be ongoing.
Where the apps fall short
The mobile experience does not match the depth of the web platform.
More complex tasks still require desktop access. The apps function as companions rather than replacements.
What this means for you: Native Teams’ mobile apps work well for basic visibility and light tasks. They support on-the-go checks but not full account management.
What analytics and reporting features does Native Teams include?
3.9 out of 5field average 4.0Native Teams gives you standard reports for payroll, payments, employee costs, and compliance records. The reporting covers day-to-day tracking needs, but it’s focused on operational data rather than advanced analysis.
Native Teams provides standard reports for payroll, costs, payments, and compliance. The focus is on visibility and recordkeeping, not analysis or forecasting.
What’s included
Reporting covers the essentials needed to manage international employment. This includes:
Payroll summaries with gross pay, deductions, employer contributions, and net pay
Employee costs by country
Payment and transaction history
Expense tracking
Tax filings and compliance documents
Reports are available historically and can be exported for accounting use.
Financial visibility and compliance records
Financial dashboards show wallet balances, currency activity, card spending, and payment history. These views help teams track payroll outflows and expenses. The data is presented clearly but without customization.
Compliance reporting stores contracts, benefits enrollment, tax registrations, and required filings by country.
These records support audits and internal reviews. The platform does not provide deeper regulatory analysis.
Where it falls short
Reporting is focused on operational views and standard dashboards rather than advanced analytics. The platform does not document custom report-building tools or predictive insight features.
What this means for you: Native Teams covers the reporting most teams actually need. The tools work well for cost tracking and compliance records. Companies that rely on advanced analytics or custom reporting will need a more specialized platform.
How secure is Native Teams?
4.1 out of 5field average 4.2Native Teams documents its security and privacy practices and covers the core protections most teams expect.
Formal third-party certifications are less visible than with enterprise-grade platforms, which lowers the rating a few fractions of a point.
Native Teams uses standard security controls to protect employment and financial data. The platform follows established security practices common across SaaS providers.
Core protections
The platform relies on widely used safeguards for data access and storage:
Encryption: AES-256 for data at rest and TLS 1.3 for data in transit
Access controls: Role-based permissions set by administrators
Authentication: Multi-factor login through SMS or Google Authenticator
Together, these controls limit access to sensitive employee and payroll information.
Security certifications
Native Teams states alignment with recognized security standards, including ISO and SOC 2.
These frameworks focus on internal controls, access management, and data security processes.
Public references to these certifications are high-level. Detailed audit reports or certification scopes are not widely shared, at least that’s what I found in my research.
What this means for you: Native Teams offers security measures that meet most small and mid-sized business needs. Core protections and recognized standards are in place.
What compliance standards does Native Teams meet?
4.1 out of 5field average 4.3Native Teams covers core employment compliance across its supported countries with localized contracts and payroll handling.
Based on my research, most standard cases run with no problems, with occasional administrative issues noted in user feedback.
Native Teams handles compliance by applying local employment rules in each supported country. The platform is built for standard employment setups rather than edge cases or heavy advisory work.
Employment, payroll, and benefits
Compliance starts with country-specific employment contracts. These contracts include required terms, termination rules, benefits, and statutory language. Local legal guidance informs the templates.
Core compliance coverage includes:
Employment contract creation and updates
Employee tax registration and recurring filings
Statutory deductions and social security payments
Mandatory benefits such as healthcare, pensions, and leave
Year-end payroll and tax documents
Payroll and benefits are updated as local rules change. These updates are handled at the platform level.
Ongoing regulatory monitoring
Compliance teams track changes to employment laws, tax rules, and benefit requirements across supported countries. When changes occur, contracts, payroll calculations, or benefit handling are adjusted. This keeps standard employment arrangements matched to local rules.
Practical limits
Most user reports I read describe smooth compliance handling for typical hires.
I’ve seen some reviews mention billing issues, delayed updates, or administrative errors that require follow-up.
Companies in heavily regulated industries or with complex structures may find the support less flexible. Documentation covers the basics but does not replace advisory-level guidance.
What this means for you: Native Teams covers compliance well for standard international hiring. Small and mid-sized teams can operate without building internal compliance teams. Companies with complex regulatory needs may need additional support beyond the platform.
I have not yet run a hands-on demo of Native Teams. This review is based on independent research: verified pricing pages, product documentation, aggregated user feedback from G2, Capterra, and Trustpilot, and community reports from Reddit and industry forums. When we complete a hands-on test-drive, this section will be updated with the full results.
What do Native Teams customers say?
Native Teams is rated on 3 independent review platforms that we neither run nor can edit. We read them as the record of what living with Native Teams is actually like, which is a different question from the one our own score answers. Read the review counts with some care: providers can ask their happiest customers for a review, and some run incentives to get them.
| Platform | Rating | Reviews | Who is rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| G2 | 4.8 / 5 | 246 | Customers |
| Trustpilot | 3.6 / 5 | 285 | Customers |
| Capterra | 4.5 / 5 | 122 | Customers |
| Glassdoor | 4.4 / 5 | 138 | Native Teams's own employees, not customers |
Across 653 customer reviews, the weighted average is 4.3 out of 5. This is separate from our score and comes straight from each platform.
What this means for you
G2, Trustpilot, Capterra rate Native Teams 4.3 out of 5 across 653 reviews. We do not run those sites and we cannot edit them. We score it 4.1. Customers rate what they live with, like whether payroll runs on time and whether support picks up. We also score what they never deal with, like whether the price is published and how many countries we checked ourselves. If the two are far apart, that is your question for the sales call.
What do Native Teams users say on Reddit?
Review platforms collect star ratings; Reddit is where people describe what actually happened. We screened 27 community mentions of Native Teams for relevance, set aside 7 from accounts that read as promotional, and kept 20. Of those, 9 are first-hand accounts from people who used Native Teams themselves. The complaints cluster around pricing.

What this means for you
Most of what people post is neither a recommendation nor a warning: 45% of the 20 mentions we kept are neutral, against 20% positive and 35% negative. Where they are not, it tends to be pricing. Take these as the questions to put to Native Teams in writing, not as a verdict. Reddit is anonymous and we cannot verify any individual account.
How does Native Teams compare with its competitors?
Fees are each provider's own published starting price and the scores are ours, both at our last check. A cheaper provider is not automatically the right one for you, so read the last column before the price column. The providers we would send you to come first.

A dash in the last column means we have not assessed that provider against these seven situations yet, not that we rejected it. G2 ratings carry their review count, because a 5.0 from a few dozen reviews and a 4.7 from several thousand are not the same evidence. Country counts are the ones we have verified, so a provider built for one region shows a low number by design rather than as a weakness.
Latest updates from Native Teams
Native Teams says its coverage has grown to 95+ countries, up from the 70-something figure it published previously, and its site now sells global payroll, contractor pay, contractor of record, gig payments and entity management alongside EOR. EOR still starts from $99 per employee per month. The country figure is the provider's own, we have not verified it country by country, and there is still no public API documentation.
