## Summary

Aspirock is a global Employer of Record and payroll provider, founded in 2021 and built on more than 22 years of its founder's operational experience, supporting companies that hire across 70+ countries.

## Verdict

- **Verdict:** Aspirock covers 73 countries through its own regional offices and offers a named account team model that gives clients direct human contact rather than a ticket queue. Its most concrete differentiator is direct-entity employment in Saudi Arabia, where it holds the top Nitaqat compliance band. The main trade-off is that transparent pricing exists only for that Saudi Arabia deployment, so most engagements require a custom quote, and the company itself has been operating only since 2021.
- **Best for:** Companies expanding into the GCC or MENA region, particularly Saudi Arabia, that want direct-entity employment and a dedicated account team rather than a platform-first experience.
- **Not ideal for:** Buyers who need published, comparable pricing across multiple markets before starting procurement conversations will find Aspirock's quote-only model outside Saudi Arabia a poor fit.
- **Standout feature:** Aspirock employs workers in Saudi Arabia through its own licensed entity and holds the top Nitaqat band, a distinction that matters directly for clients hiring in that market.
- **Biggest limitation:** Pricing is publicly available only for Saudi Arabia, from $500 per employee per month, meaning cost comparisons for any other of the 73 countries covered require going through a custom quote process.

## About

Aspirock is a global Employer of Record and payroll provider that helps companies hire, pay and stay compliant in more than 70 countries without setting up local entities of their own. The company was founded in 2021 by Mike Millsopp, building on more than 22 years of his operational experience in the EOR industry, and now supports more than 5,000 workers worldwide.

Aspirock works across the European Union, the United States, MENA and the GCC, with offices in six core markets: Ireland, the United States, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Australia. Rather than routing support through a ticketing system, the company assigns every client a named account team that can be reached directly by phone or email.

Its services cover the full employment lifecycle, including contracts, multi-currency payroll, benefits administration, immigration and visa sponsorship, and local compliance, for both corporate clients and independent consultants. The Gulf is a particular area of depth: Aspirock employs staff in Saudi Arabia through its own licensed entity, holds the top Nitaqat band, and sponsors visas directly, which matters in a market where the Employer of Record is also the legal visa sponsor.

Pricing is published for Saudi Arabia, starting from around $500 per employee per month as a flat fee, with statutory costs passed through at cost and no setup or offboarding fees. Other markets are quoted per deployment.
