How this provider compares

Final global workbook scores. How we score ↗

3.7/5

Consider it for

Teams that value a published service charter and coordinated multi-country employment administration.

Main trade-off

The controlling MSA, minimum commitment and transfer charges were not obtained; short administrative targets do not replace employment notice.

Country fit & local delivery

Global Expansion is an Equus business founded in 2020. It claims EOR, payroll, benefits, tax and work-authorisation support in 214+ markets, including countries and territories. This is not proof of 214 sovereign countries or wholly owned employers. Its charter refers to local companies or employers, and customer reports identify partners. Parent-company longevity is distinct from GX operating history.

Provider statement · Sources
Checked 2026-09-16

No private quote, signed EOR contract, outreach or operational trial. Provider claims are not independent delivery verification. Search absence does not prove absence of incidents.

Payroll workflow

The charter describes client and employee forms, contract drafting and review, signing and a country annex. Conditional onboarding/offboarding targets are three to seven working days, compared with 24-hour marketing. Expense and variable-pay cutoffs are the 25th, subject to country variation; the table refers to payment in the following month’s salary. Payroll passes from client through GX and the local team to the employee. Correction liability is not established.

Which legal entity will employ this person, and who handles a difficult local employment question?

Costs, deposits & currency

The public charter itemises salary, allowances, employer tax, variable pay, approved expenses, FX and the GX fee. The MSA sets fees and the deposit amount. Invoices are due in ten working days. Deposit invoices are issued within five working days of starting; deposits protect employee pay if the client is late and are returned within 14 working days after final payments and offboarding. No FX spread is stated. This changeable charter is subordinate to the MSA; its monthly-fee glossary is ambiguous.

If an approved salary is wrong or late, who fixes it, by when, and who pays any charges?

Support & accountability

The charter targets responses to 95% of emails within two hours, answering 95% of calls with an initial response, and answering 95% of queries within 48 hours. It provides escalation and optional post-resolution evaluation. These are changeable targets subject to the MSA, not measured delivery or a universal service-credit guarantee. GX1 advertises 24/7 in-app messaging.

Who owns our case through to resolution, including when it moves to a country specialist?

Platforms & integrations

GX1 advertises device-independent access, time, compensation, expenses, leave, contracts and integration automation. The charter also names GoCo as the HR platform, so the actual system and local portals need clarification. No tested integration list or uptime history was obtained. Accounts include praise for GX1 and one report of coordinator information not matching the platform.

What will this employee receive, what can they see, and where do they get help?

Contracts & responsibility

GX says it coordinates local notice, resignation, termination, final salary, expenses, accrued holiday, severance and transfer to another employer. No operative public MSA, liability cap, IP assignment, minimum notice commitment or transfer fee was obtained. A three-to-seven-day administrative target does not override employee notice requirements.

Employee data & security

GX claims Azure hosting, encryption, independent ISO 27001 audits, two-factor authentication, roles, SAML 2 SSO and backup. Its February 2026 Equus GX privacy notice expressly excludes employee and customer-product data governed by a separate agreement. Website Data Privacy Framework and certification claims do not substitute for an employee DPA, audit report or processor list.
