How this provider compares
Final global workbook scores. How we score ↗
Consider it for
Companies wanting recruiting-led LATAM hiring with continuing customer-success support.
Main trade-off
No operative MSA establishes liability, employee IP or transfer rights; recruitment cancellation promises cannot remove local employment obligations.
Country fit & local delivery
South explicitly offers LATAM EOR through its own local entities with client daily management, payroll/taxes and employment contracts. Exact employing entities, licensed countries, role limits and visa eligibility are not independently verified. Home average16-day hiring refers to recruitment, not guaranteed EOR onboarding.
Provider statement · Sources
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.
Costs, deposits & currency
Pricing page promises one flat monthly bill, no deposits, no minimum commitment, no cancellation fees and payment only after hiring, but provides no public numeric EOR management fee or FX spread. Its FAQ also refers to full-time contractors and payroll partners. Confirm which promises govern the EOR order; they cannot automatically override local employment notice/severance.
