🌍 Rise: The Global Payroll Platform That Pays in Crypto or Cash β€” You Choose

Hiring across borders? Paying in stablecoins? Need tax compliance across 190 countries?
Rise is building the payroll infrastructure Web3 companies didn’t know they needed β€” until now.


πŸ’Ό What Is Rise?

Rise is a hybrid payroll platform that lets companies pay salaries in fiat, crypto β€” or both.
From Web3 startups to global tech teams, Rise makes it easy to onboard talent, automate contracts, and stay fully compliant across borders.

It’s not just β€œcrypto payroll” β€” it’s a full-stack solution for modern, decentralized companies.


πŸ’° Crypto or Fiat? Why Not Both.

Rise supports:

  • πŸ’΅ USD, EUR, and local currencies
  • πŸͺ™ Stablecoins like USDC, USDT, and 100+ others
  • 🧾 Hybrid setups β€” e.g. 70% fiat + 30% crypto

Whether your team wants to avoid inflation or just stack USDC β€” Rise gives them the choice.


🌐 Why Rise Stands Out

πŸ”Ή 1. Global Reach (190+ Countries)

Hire, pay, and stay compliant β€” whether your dev lives in Lisbon, Lagos, or Laos.

πŸ”Ή 2. W-2 + EOR Support

No local entity? No problem. Rise handles employment, contracts, and taxes in-country for you.

πŸ”Ή 3. Full Automation

KYC, contracts, tax docs, payroll runs β€” fully automated.
No spreadsheets. No drama. Just smooth operations.

πŸ”Ή 4. Currency Flexibility

Employees choose how they want to get paid:
πŸ’Έ Fiat for rent.
πŸͺ™ Crypto for savings.
⚑ Instant, borderless access.


πŸ€Όβ€β™‚οΈ How Rise Compares to Deel, BitWage & Others

Most platforms (like Deel or BitWage) support fiat-first payments.
Rise flips the model β€” built for Web3-native teams, but fully regulated.

Also:

  • πŸ”§ BitWage = manual-heavy
  • πŸͺ™ Deel = limited crypto support
  • πŸ“„ Request = less automation + no EOR

Rise combines all of it β€” in one dashboard.


πŸ’Έ Pricing & Payment Management

For contractor-based teams:

  • From $50/month per contractor
  • Plus 3% commission on processed payments

For larger teams:

  • Custom payroll + tax packages
  • Full support for employees, contractors, and cross-border tax compliance

πŸš€ Who Should Use Rise?

  • 🌐 Remote-first Web3 startups
  • 🏒 Global teams with distributed talent
  • πŸ“Š DAOs, dev shops, or crypto orgs scaling internationally
  • 🀝 Companies that care about legal compliance + payment freedom

TL;DR:

  • 🌎 Supports 190+ countries
  • πŸ’΅ Pay in fiat, crypto, or both
  • 🧾 Full automation: tax forms, contracts, onboarding
  • πŸ” Includes W-2, EOR, and KYC
  • βš™οΈ Built for Web3 teams that want speed, flexibility, and compliance

Rise is not just payroll β€” it’s what payroll looks like in the multichain world.
