Playroll, the global employment platform simplifying hiring in 180+ countries, has secured two top honours at the 2025 Stevie Awards for Great Employers:
- Gold: Global HR Solution Provider of the Year
- Silver: HR Technology Solution Provider of the Year
These awards recognize Playroll's compliance-first approach to global employment, built for scale, speed, and simplicity. The platform helps companies onboard talent faster, remain 100% compliant, and eliminate up to 60% of legacy EOR costs – without displacing existing HR systems.
"Playroll was built to solve the hardest problem in HR: how to go global without increasing overhead or losing control," said Brendon Silver, CEO of Playroll.
"This award is a testament to the companies who believed there was a better way. Our job is to make global hiring feel as seamless as local onboarding, with compliance so strong it feels invisible."
Unlike traditional Employer of Record providers that demand a complete system overhaul, Playroll plugs into existing HR infrastructure. This means faster onboarding to match the speed of startups, enterprise-grade compliance and a premium employee experience.
"As global hiring accelerates and compliance risk grows, Playroll's recognition marks a milestone in the rise of modular, human-first HR infrastructure," added Erez Golan, Co-Founder and Managing Director.
Key differentiators:
- 1-2 day onboarding in 180+ markets
- White-label & embedded EOR solutions for resellers and global partners
- Compliance-first infrastructure, powered by VAT IT Group(25+ years of tax/legal expertise)
- Up to 60% cost savings vs. legacy providers
- 7/5 G2 rating with 24+ badges earned in 2025 alone
With 300% YoY growth, 24 G2 badges, and clients like Ricola, HSP Group, the NBA, and Jaeger, Playroll is becoming the go-to infrastructure for global HR teams and embedded SaaS platforms. The judges said: "Playroll offers a cost-effective, modular, and compliance-driven alternative in an EOR space dominated by rigid, high-cost incumbents.
"Their platform delivers real-world value - enabling legal compliance, rapid onboarding, and significant savings across industries and geographies." Playroll is a global employment platform that helps companies easily hire, pay, and manage international teams.
