Weekly pay, wherever you bank

Yes. Corpshore Work charges the business that hires you, never you. The 0% worker fee is permanent — not a promotional rate. For contractor-of-record engagements, you receive the full agreed rate. For EOR (employee) engagements, statutory deductions (income tax, social contributions) are applied as required by local law — these are the same deductions any employer would make, not a platform fee.

In 50+ countries, yes — the platform settles directly in local currency through local clearing systems. Where local currency settlement isn't available, payment is in USD or EUR. If you use Wise, you can hold the balance and convert when rates are favourable. Mobile money payouts are always in local currency.

All your engagements settle on the same Friday cycle. You receive one payment per payment rail per week (or separate payments if your engagements use different rails). Your dashboard shows a breakdown by engagement, with hours logged, rate applied, and any deductions itemized.

For EOR (employee) engagements, yes — income tax, social security, and all statutory deductions are calculated and withheld per your country's law. You receive your net pay with a detailed payslip showing every deduction. For contractor-of-record engagements, you receive the gross amount and handle your own tax obligations, as with any contractor relationship. The platform provides payment records and year-end summaries for your tax filings.

Corpshore settles your payment regardless of whether the client has paid their invoice. The payment risk sits with Corpshore, not with you. Your weekly settlement is guaranteed for active engagements. This is one of the most significant differences from freelance marketplaces, where your payment depends entirely on the client releasing funds.

Yes. You can switch payment methods from your dashboard at any time. The change takes effect from the next weekly settlement. There's no penalty or fee for switching. If you're moving to a new country, the platform will recommend the best payment rail for your new location.

Corpshore doesn't charge you any payment processing fees. However, your bank or mobile money provider may charge their own receiving fees or currency conversion fees. Wise is typically the cheapest option for cross-border transfers (mid-market rate, transparent fee). Mobile money providers charge nominal fees (typically 0-1%). We recommend checking with your provider about their receiving fees.

Your dashboard shows a complete payment history: every engagement, every settlement, every payment with full transaction detail. You can export records for tax filing in multiple formats (CSV, PDF). The system generates year-end summaries for jurisdictions that require them, and for EOR employees, produces payslips and tax certificates.

The platform supports payments in 50+ currencies through a combination of local clearing systems, Stripe Connect (46+ countries), and Wise (50+ currencies). The most common currencies are settled locally: USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, BRL, MXN, INR, SGD, JPY, PHP, NGN, KES, ZAR, and AED. For other currencies, Wise provides competitive conversion from USD or EUR.

Some countries (e.g., Nigeria, Egypt, Argentina) have currency controls that affect how foreign currency can be received and converted. The platform routes payments through compliant channels in these jurisdictions. Your country page has specific guidance on payment rails and any local restrictions. In practice, our payment partners have established compliant pathways in every country where we operate.
