A PEO works with your entity. An EOR acts as legal employer.
A US PEO is a co-employment option for a business with its own US entity. If you want to hire without one, assess an eligible EOR arrangement. Your states, benefits needs and the responsibilities you want help with also affect the choice.

Compare quoted administrative charges on the same basis: a percentage of payroll and a per-employee monthly fee can produce different results at your headcount. Keep wages, employment taxes, benefits premiums, workers’ compensation and other charges separate, and check renewal terms.

What's the difference between a PEO and an EOR?
A PEO provides agreed services through a co-employment arrangement with your own US business. Payroll, benefits and HR responsibilities are shared under the contract and applicable law. An EOR acts as the legal employer under an eligible local employment arrangement, often when the client has no local entity. Your entity setup helps determine the route, along with state or country availability, service scope and employment requirements.
How is the PEO Broker free for me?
Providers may pay us a referral fee when an introduction leads to a signed contract. We do not charge you for the shortlist or optional introductions. The email identifies referral relationships, including recommended providers that pay us no fee. Each PEO sets its own quote.
Do you check whether a PEO is IRS-certified or ESAC-accredited?
Yes. We flag IRS certification as a CPEO and ESAC accreditation separately. CPEO status affects specified federal employment-tax treatment under IRS rules; ESAC is an accreditation and financial-assurance program. Confirm the status of the entity that will sign your agreement.
Will you tell me if I don't actually need a PEO?
Yes. For some businesses, payroll software plus a benefits broker is a better fit than a PEO. If you want to employ people without a local entity, an eligible EOR arrangement is the alternative.
Can you compare bundled vs. unbundled and ASO options too?
Yes, we compare all three. We’ll show where a bundled PEO, an unbundled arrangement or an ASO (administrative-services-only) model fits your headcount and benefits goals, and how each affects your workers’ comp and benefits-renewal costs. The shortlist names the model alongside the vendor.
Who sees my company information?
We use your brief to prepare the shortlist. No PEO receives your details until you ask us to make an introduction. We don’t sell or re-purpose your contact details. Read our privacy policy.
