Common questions

How does Charter Pay pricing work?

Our listed rates are monthly starting prices. EOR and COR are priced per employee or contractor, while Global Payroll and Contractor Management are charged per person managed. We provide a country-specific proposal covering your team size, services, any setup costs and applicable local statutory or third-party charges before you proceed.

Are there any hidden fees?

We aim to make every cost clear upfront. Your proposal will distinguish Charter Pay's service fees from any applicable setup fees, employee compensation, taxes, statutory contributions, benefits, currency conversion and payment charges. We discuss additional services or costs with you before proceeding.

Can I hire in multiple countries under one engagement?

Yes. Charter Pay can coordinate hiring, contractor engagement and payroll across multiple African countries through a single point of contact. Each country's employment arrangements, statutory obligations and any local partner requirements are addressed in the proposed service structure.

Do you support both employees and contractors?

Yes. Our Employer of Record (EOR) service enables you to hire employees without first establishing your own local employing entity. Contractor of Record (COR) supports independent contractor engagement and administration. For businesses with their own entities or direct contractor relationships, we also offer Global Payroll and Contractor Management.

How quickly can I get started?

Timelines depend on the country, service and readiness of your documentation. Share the location, number of employees or contractors and your preferred start date, and our team will outline the onboarding requirements and an indicative timeline for your engagement.
