Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Boundless provides Employer of Record (EOR) and Agent of Record (AOR) services that let organisations employ staff and engage independent contractors in other countries without establishing local legal entities. Under its EOR service, Boundless becomes the legal employer in the hire's country and handles onboarding, employment contracts, global payroll, employee benefits, statutory obligations and terminations, while the client company continues to select, direct and manage the worker day to day. Its AOR service covers contractor onboarding, contractor agreements, contractor classification, payments and offboarding.

The company states EOR coverage in more than 110 countries and contractor management in more than 160 countries. Alongside the core services it publishes self-serve tools and content, including country-by-country hiring and compliance guides, an employment cost calculator that shows employer costs, statutory contributions and net pay, a glossary of global employment terminology, and a resource library of blogs, ebooks, webinars and case studies. It also produces a report analysing total employment costs and net pay across 36 European countries.

Business model

Boundless acts as the contracted legal employer or contracting agent for its clients' international workers, taking on employment administration, payroll and compliance responsibilities on their behalf; the site includes a pricing page for these services.

Traction

The company publishes customer testimonials from named executives at Comnexa, Kraken, The Up Group and Kohomai, several of which reference switching to Boundless from or after evaluating other EOR providers.
