Core Workforce
Recurring seat revenue from contractor, employee, and benefits infrastructure.
Fast, Affordable, AI-first

Real-time transactions, fewer handoffs, less leakage, and a dramatically cleaner payment experience.
per employee / month — Deel EOR
Global EOR incumbents price for the Fortune 500. Saudi SMEs and startups face a cost that is simply existential — pricing that excludes 95% of the MENA market.
of 6 top EOR providers have a Saudi entity
Not Deel, not Remote, not Oyster, not Papaya — none operate a Saudi legal entity. Compliance gaps. Misclassification risk. Zero native Arabic support.
average onboarding time with incumbents
Form-heavy, email-chain onboarding built for enterprise. The MENA market needs workers hired, contracted, and paid in 48 hours — not 14 days.
of EOR providers now integrating AI, none AI-first
AI lets one founder run the ops of a 20-person team. Paytal's entire operations stack was built on AI agents before hiring a single person.
of global workers prefer remote or hybrid work
The post-pandemic shift is structural. Companies hiring globally need compliant, affordable EOR now, not when incumbents catch up.
16% of companies are fully remote, while their top-notch remote workers prefer to get paid in USD, with no bank commissions or delays.

A $36B global market — MENA is the fastest-growing, least-served region
53% of EOR clients are SMEs — our core ICP. The MENA market is underserved by incumbents who price for enterprise and ignore the long tail of growing businesses.
Comparable buyer outcomes, regional fit, and materially lower target cost.
| Capability | PAYTAL | DEEL |

| EOR / employee / mo | $120 | $599 |
| COR / contractor / mo | $10–20 | $49 |

LTV:CAC improves year over year as the flywheel spins faster
| ARR | Gross Margin | Net Income | LTV:CAC | Burn/mo | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | $238K | 62% | $20K | 11.2x | $15K/mo |
| Year 2 | $1.97M | 77% | $918K | 16.4x | $32K/mo |
Four structural advantages that compound over time and get harder, not easier, for competitors to replicate.
Setup takes 12 to 18 months and requires deep local expertise. We are building it now, locking in first-mover advantage before global players can follow.

Squadio's vetted MENA talent base gives Paytal a bilateral advantage. We do not just employ talent, we can source it too, and no EOR provider offers that combination.
Institutional FX-rate logic, priority-market coverage, and approval-aware settlement routing create a real infrastructure edge. Approval depth and compliance readiness are hard to replicate quickly.
Rashed, Noor, and Ash create an operations layer incumbents cannot cheaply copy. Re-architecting for agentic workflows would cost them years, not sprints.
vs. the global incumbents — feature by feature
| Feature | Deel | RemotePass | Oyster HR | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EOR / mo | $120 | $599 | $349 | $699 |

The category produces giants. Paytal is entering a proven market with room to localize what they never built for MENA.
