亮点
功能比较
Features Overview
我们强调主要差异并为每个功能选择获胜者。
Global Reach
Deel masters global hiring, while Square Payroll focuses heavily on US business needs.
Deel is a true Global People Platform supporting operations in 150+ countries. It offers Employer of Record (EOR) services in 130+ countries. This lets you hire full employees worldwide without local entities for $599/month. Square Payroll is built for US businesses, with support for federal and state payroll requirements. It also serves select international regions but lacks comprehensive EOR functionality. The trade-off is clear: If expansion is your goal, Deel provides the necessary legal infrastructure immediately. If you operate primarily within the US, Square Payroll offers localized simplicity. A startup wanting to hire its first engineer in Poland must use Deel; Square Payroll cannot offer compliant employment there.
Pricing Structure
Deel’s pricing is complex and high-tier; Square Payroll is simple and cost-effective for US teams.
Deel pricing varies wildly based on service, from $49/contractor to $599/EOR employee monthly. It uses a flexible per-seat structure without mandatory long contracts. Square Payroll is straightforward: a $35 base fee plus $6 per person for full service. The contractor-only plan is a lean $6 per person monthly, avoiding the base fee. Square Payroll is clearly cheaper for simple, high-volume domestic payroll processing. Deel charges a premium for unmatched global legal protection and complexity. A small US restaurant with 15 W-2 employees pays $125 monthly with Square Payroll. Deel's equivalent service would require costly US Payroll add-ons.
Tax Automation
Square Payroll automates US taxes perfectly; Deel handles complex international compliance needs.
Square Payroll automatically files and pays all federal and state payroll taxes for W-2 employees. It also manages 1099-NEC and W-2 year-end filings perfectly within the US system. Deel’s strength is compliance across 150 differing jurisdictions, using its Compliance Hub and legal experts. It specifically mitigates contractor misclassification risks globally. If US tax headaches are your primary issue, Square Payroll offers true full-service automation. Deel solves the risk of breaching global labor or tax laws. Deel's Contractor of Record service prevents expensive misclassification fines when dealing with international freelancers.
Ecosystem Integration
Square Payroll blends perfectly with POS systems; Deel offers broad integration across the HR tech stack.
Square Payroll's superpower is its internal integration with Square Point of Sale (POS) tools. It pulls timecards, tips, and commissions directly from the POS dashboard. Deel provides 100+ integrations covering accounting, HRIS, and expense management systems like QuickBooks and others. This avoids traditional data silos. If you rely on Square POS for sales, inventory, and time tracking, Square Payroll is frictionless. Deel offers versatility to connect diverse enterprise-level tools. A coffee shop using Square POS saves massive time by automatically syncing employee tips and hours into the Square Payroll run.
Contractor Payments
Square Payroll offers the cheapest US contractor solution; Deel offers deeper compliance for global contractors.
Square Payroll's Contractor-only plan is a lean $6 per person, ideal for US-based 1099 workers. It automatically files 1099-NEC forms digitally at year-end. Deel supports contractor payments in 150+ currencies at $49/month and offers the Contractor of Record service for global risk mitigation. For simple, domestic 1099 payments, Square Payroll cannot be beaten on cost. For compliant cross-border contractor relationships, Deel is essential. Deel handles multi-currency payments and exchange rate management, which Square Payroll does not offer globally.
Customer Support
Deel guarantees rapid support response times and dedicated staff; Square Payroll offers reliable standard support.
Deel guarantees an elite 1.25-minute First Response Time (FRT) for support inquiries. They provide a single, dedicated point of contact without relying on third parties for critical help. Square Payroll provides specialized support M-F, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Pacific Time. Review sentiment is generally positive but lacks the specific guarantees Deel provides. Running global operations often means urgent, high-stakes compliance questions requiring rapid replies. Deel prioritizes this urgency with its 1.25-minute guarantee. For a business operating globally across many time zones, Deel's guaranteed 24/7 responsiveness is a critical operational advantage.
Speed & Flexibility
Square Payroll offers quicker domestic funds access; Deel provides payment flexibility across many currencies.
Square Payroll offers Instant Payments when using a Square balance, allowing payroll within one day. This speed provides significant financial flexibility for US teams. Deel focuses on reliable, timely transfer across international borders and 150+ payment methods. Square Payroll’s focus is maximizing direct deposit speed within the US financial system. Deel enables you to pay contractors in Vietnam via their local bank account using competitive exchange rates. Square Payroll is best optimized for speed inside the U.S. ecosystem.
我们的判断
Choosing between Deel and Square Payroll is easy: decide if you need global reach or US simplicity. They are both excellent payroll systems, but they solve vastly different problems. For most US-centric small businesses, Square Payroll is the obvious, cost-effective choice. If your roadmap includes hiring outside the US in the next year, Deel is the required infrastructure. Deel's superpower is making complex global operations look easy and compliant. Deel provides the costly infrastructure (EOR) to hire in 130+ countries instantly for $599/month. You get unparalleled compliance tools and a dedicated support contact with a guaranteed 1.25-minute response time. Deel unifies HR, compliance, and payroll for your entire global workforce. Square Payroll's superpower is speed, accessibility, and integration with the Square ecosystem. It handles US-based W-2 payroll flawlessly, including tax filings, for only $35 plus $6 per employee. Square Payroll’s full commitment to automation and its Instant Payments option make domestic payroll runs fast. It simplifies life for any business owner already using Square POS hardware. The deciding factor is location and worker type, not feature parity. If you only pay US-based employees and 1099 contractors, Square Payroll saves you significant money. If you are hiring remote employees in Brazil, Germany, or Singapore, you must use Deel’s legal structure. Choose Square Payroll for domestic stability and rock-bottom pricing for US contractors. Opt for Deel if you are a global enterprise looking to expand headcount compliantly in 150+ countries. Deel is built for the world; Square Payroll is built for your shop down the street.
常见问题
Which is better for a US micro-business: Deel or Square Payroll?
Square Payroll is better because it's significantly cheaper and specialized in US compliance. Its Full-service plan starts with a $35 base fee plus $6 per person paid. Deel's global focus means its services are generally much more expensive.
Can Deel handle US payroll for W-2 employees like Square Payroll?
Yes, Deel offers a US Payroll add-on service across all 50 states for in-country payroll. However, Square Payroll integrates more seamlessly with existing US small business tools like Square POS. Square focuses entirely on that market.
Does Square Payroll offer global Employer of Record (EOR) services?
No, Square Payroll does not offer EOR services for compliant global employment. Deel is mandatory if you need to hire full-time employees in 130+ countries without establishing local entities.
Which platform offers the fastest payment processing speeds for domestic payments?
Square Payroll offers quicker domestic payments, including Instant Payments using your Square balance. Deel supports multi-currency transfers reliably across 150+ regions, but not instant domestic deposit speeds.
Which tool is better for managing international 1099 contractors?
Deel is better for managing contractors internationally due to its 150+ currency support and compliance tools. Square Payroll is far cheaper for domestic 1099s at only $6 per person paid.
Why is Deel so much more expensive than Square Payroll?
Deel pays for complex global legal expertise and infrastructure (EOR model is $599/month). Square Payroll is low-cost because it focuses primarily on leveraging simplicity and automation within the standard US system.
