Many UK employers face challenges when hiring across borders, including the need to establish local entities, manage unfamiliar tax systems, and meet compliance standards. These hurdles often result in contractor-based arrangements, which may pose legal and financial risks for both parties.
Rise addresses these concerns by acting as the legal employer for international hires. The platform manages employment responsibilities such as payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance, while allowing client businesses to oversee day-to-day operations and performance.
“UK companies can set up international payroll in hours instead of weeks,” said a Rise representative. “Our platform allows businesses to pay employees in over 90 local currencies or more than 100 cryptocurrencies while remaining fully compliant with local laws.”
The service also benefits employees, who receive full-time status and access to employment protections. Workers can choose to be paid in their preferred currency, including traditional fiat or digital assets—options not typically supported by conventional payroll providers.
Rise offers transparent pricing starting from $399 per employee/month, providing UK businesses with a cost-effective solution for global hiring without the setup fees, legal costs, and ongoing administration expenses typically associated with international expansion.
