Plane Overview

What is Plane?

Plane manages payroll, benefits, and compliance for US-based companies hiring US and international employees and contractors. Easily hire, onboard, and pay employees and contractors in the US and worldwide, in one secure, cloud-based platform. Using Plane, you can send payments to contractors in 240+ countries at optimal exchange rates. Plane believes that international contractors should have the same payroll experience that US employees enjoy. We send payments directly to contractors’ bank accounts, so that they can withdraw money from their own accounts, without the hassle or withdrawal fees of an e-wallet. Want to hire employees instead of contractors? With Plane, you can easily hire full-time employees in 100+ countries without having to set up local entities. Plane handles employment paperwork, tax withholding, and more, so that you don’t have to. Unlike many EORs, Plane believes in simple pricing, with no hidden fees. You pay a flat monthly fee. Not sure whether to hire a team member as an employee or a contractor? Plane has supported both options from day one, and our expert team is happy to guide you to the best option for your needs, without an agenda.

Product Description

Plane helps with payroll, benefits, and compliance for international teams in one secure, cloud-based platform.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Unlike many of our competitors, Plane has fully supported hiring both employees and contractors from day one. This enables our team to give unbiased, expert advice on worker classification, so that you can make the best decision for your company's needs.

Security and compliance are taken very seriously at Plane. Plane is money transfer compliant in all 50 US states, while some competitors are not compliant for certain states.

Plane strongly believes that your international team members should have the same payments experience as that of your US team. With Plane, your international contractors receive their payments directly in their bank accounts, without having to use an e-wallet or pay withdrawal fees. Plane sends funds in your company's name, and the funds never touch Plane's corporate accounts. This means that your funds remain yours, until your contractors receive them.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Plane?

Using Plane to receive payments has been a smooth and efficient experience. The platform makes it easy to track incoming payments, with clear transaction details and a user-friendly dashboard. Payments are processed quickly, and the notifications help me stay updated without constantly checking the system.

I also appreciate the transparency—there are no hidden fees, and the interface provides a clear breakdown of transactions. The ability to withdraw funds effortlessly is a huge plus, making cash flow management much easier.

One area for improvement could be adding more withdrawal options or faster transfer times for certain banks, but overall, Plane is a reliable and convenient solution for receiving payments. Highly recommended! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I had an issue with entering my payment information to receive my salary that month, I remember a company representative quickly contacted me, instructing me on when I would receive my payment, what I needed to do, and what type of information I should enter into the platform. I am very grateful for all the help and service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Plane?

I've been on both ends of Plane (sender and receiver) and i've liked it a lot.

As a sender, i can easily have team members listed, signed up with their bank deets without much hassle, and sending payroll seems like a breeze.

As a reciver of money, it's super straightforward. I get a notficaiton when my money has been sent and when i can get it by - and there's zero charges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plane?

The only thing i don't like is that it takes a while to get your money rather than same day or the next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Plane?

Twice a month, I received my salary through Plane, and overall, my experience was positive. The platform is intuitive, and their customer service team is both responsive and helpful.

I would recommend Plane, but with the hope that they optimize their payment speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plane?

Payments were processed smoothly, but the wait time from the confirmation email to the actual deposit felt longer than expected.

On one occasion, I encountered an issue, and while their support team was helpful, the time it took to resend the payment was quite lengthy. If Plane could streamline their processing times, their service would be even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
