Why teams prefer Deel over Oyster for global HR and Payroll
Stop paying to work with partners
We use our own infrastructure in 100+ countries and in-house professionals. Oyster’s coverage is built on partners in most countries, which can create a frustrating experience with many points of contact, multiple data handovers, and greater room for error.

Oyster
Save precious time on HR admin
Deel has a wide range of integrations and superior built-in automation. Oyster has fewer integrations and automation. This can delay support, slow onboarding, and result in a poor employee experience.

Rely on fast, in-house support
Deel provides in-house support that's fast, reliable, and multi-channel. Oyster relies on a ticketing system which can cause delays for urgent issues like terminations or off-cycle payroll.

Give your team an exceptional payment experience
Our flexible and automated payments infrastructure sets us apart from Oyster, which provides clients with limited payment options and only offers 1 withdrawal method for contractors, causing unnecessary hassle and limitations.

Handle everything HR in one place
Deel consolidates everything you need to manage a global team, so you can cut costs, save time, and scale confidently. Oyster doesn't provide an HRIS, requiring additional tools that can be costly and demand duplicate work.
