Methodology and disclosure
Who publishes this page
BestCryptoPayroll is published by Toku (WorkCo, Inc. d/b/a Toku), a provider of employer of record, global payroll, stablecoin payroll and token grant administration. Toku is one of the providers compared, and we rank it first. This is not an independent review: Toku pays for this site, and no other provider paid to be listed.
Which providers we include
We include providers whose own website shows they currently pay employees or contractors in crypto or stablecoins as a payroll or contractor-payment service for companies. We leave out companies that have shut down or whose sites don't show a crypto pay option. Some smaller payout tools (such as Elephants, Bull Project, Adesic, Zebec and Parcel) and providers whose sites give too little detail to compare (such as Rippling and Gusto) aren't reviewed yet, and we add providers as we review them.
How we collect facts
Every fact about a provider comes from that provider's own website, documentation or help center, opened on the date shown, and each provider section links its sources. We don't use third-party review sites, and we don't repeat a provider's claims about its competitors. Where a provider's pages give different numbers, we quote the page we link. Prices are published list prices and may differ from quotes.
How we rank
We rank for one buyer: a crypto or Web3 company that needs to employ and pay people in several countries in stablecoins and may also grant tokens. We weigh, in order: whether employees, not only contractors, can be paid in stablecoins and in how many countries; employer-of-record coverage; tax handling and records; token grant administration; and published price. A company that only pays a few contractors might reasonably choose differently, and the "best for" line on each provider says who it suits.
