Payroll your way

A unified, end-to-end global payroll solution

Growth is important, and crossing borders to take advantage of economic opportunity and talent has amazing perks. But the challenges of maintaining a global payroll — like different currencies, foreign bank accounts, language and cultural barriers, and even time zones — might discourage companies from taking advantage of these opportunities.

That’s where we can help.

Challenge:

Many companies are looking to expand internationally, but are worried about the complexity of paying employees around the world. Staying on top of costs, compliance, and processes across a global organization can be overwhelming, and these challenges only multiply by the number of countries in which you choose to operate.

Data transparency across a global organization remains a top priority, but according to a Deloitte survey, more than 1,200 executives admit that it’s getting more complicated to keep track. Clean data is important, and using data controls and automation to prevent keying errors is becoming more common. But technology can only take you so far; you also need human proficiency and diligence. On top of that, maintaining compliance on a global scale can feel impossible when the rules are different everywhere you go (and always seem to be changing). Reinventing the wheel every time you need to pay employees in a new country causes inefficiencies, duplicated work, and overall higher costs.

Payroll accuracy is also a big challenge for any company — big or small, local or global. Mistakes can be costly, and not just because they usually come with fines tacked on to the original dollar amount! Payroll mistakes hurt employee morale, which in turn hurts your productivity. They also hurt your reputation, and drive payroll labor costs up as your staff spends time researching and correcting these errors.

Solution:

Global growth drives a need for specialized expertise, and with more than 10 years of experience, Brightwell is a perfect solution for your outsourced payroll services. We focus on the unique needs, rules, and regulations of paying a global workforce. We make sure your payroll gets done so you can focus on growing your business.

We pay employees from more than 140 countries and have tailored our solutions to fit their needs. Companies like yours are taking advantage of our digital integration options to create centralized processes and address many of the global payroll challenges you face on a daily basis.

When it comes to paying your employees, we offer a full-service where we take on everything for you, as well as an API and SDK solution that easily integrates into your back-office tooling.
