Three products

Buy one, or all three. One statement either way.

Ground, Employ and Contracts each stand on their own. Everything your team uses lands on the same monthly statement, with pass-throughs at cost and one fee per person per product.

RowBranch Ground

The physical side of a remote team, handled by people who are there.

Software stops at the screen. Ground is everything after that: the laptop that arrives configured, the desk near home, the medical plan that actually gets used, the gathering that turns a list of names into a team.

Works alongside Deel, Remote, or your own entity. You keep your employer of record. We handle the ground.
Available in Egypt

Everything on the ground, grouped:

  • Equipment

    Laptops bought, configured, delivered, then repaired, serviced and swapped.

  • Workspace and getting there

    A desk near home, and the ride that gets them to it.

  • Health and wellness

    Medical cover, the gym, wellness sessions and meal credits, run locally.

  • Team life and trips

    Dinners, offsites and trips, organised on the ground.

  • Swag and kits

    Welcome kits, branded batches and gifts, delivered to the door.

  • Checks and paperwork

    Background checks, visa letters, custody forms, and sourcing on request.

Every month you also get a report on how each person is doing, and every quarter we ask them. Take Ground on its own, however your people are employed today, or add it to Employ or Contracts. Ground on its own →

RowBranch Employ

The legal employer, when you need one.

We become the Employer of Record: compliant contracts, monthly payroll, income tax and social insurance, filed on your behalf. Your people get a proper employer, payslips and protection. You get one line on the statement.

Already have an entity? We run payroll under it instead.

Available in Egypt
RowBranch Contracts

Consultant agreements for people and companies, anywhere.

Compliant agreements with a proper statement of work, IP assignment and confidentiality. Keep the agreement in your name and pay directly, with the paperwork done for you. Or we sign as Contractor of Record and the contractor is paid in full through our statement.

Company-to-company agreements are priced as one line, not per head. Paid in full, to a bank account, an nsave account or a Wise account.

Available worldwide
However many you take, one statement a month.

Every laptop, salary, desk and venue on one page, with receipts. One fee per person per product, and what your team uses at cost.

  • One payer, one total, one wire
  • Receipts attached, never marked up
  • Funds in before payroll runs
  • No setup fees, no lock-in

Why RowBranch

A platform gives you software. We give you a branch.

Global platforms are dashboards over a network of partners. When something physical happens, a laptop dies, a paper needs walking into an office, a team needs to meet, the platform opens a ticket. We are the people the ticket would go to.

Protection

Hiring is easy. Protecting yourself is the job.

A contractor signed over email gives you almost no protection, and the risks stay invisible until something breaks. An employer of record, or a properly held contract, makes the relationship enforceable on the ground. Read why

  • Proxy work
  • Moonlighting at three jobs
  • Subcontracting your code
  • IP walking out the door
  • Ghosting mid-project
  • Misclassification and back taxes

Proof

Running every month, for a real team.

RowBranch is the productized version of what its founder spent three years doing by hand: hiring, paying, equipping and looking after engineering teams in Egypt for companies abroad. Today that same operation runs for real companies, quietly, every month.

We’ve worked with the RowBranch team for over three years. They run our engineering team in Egypt end-to-end: contractors, payroll, tooling, even our team events, all under one monthly statement, and they handle the on-the-ground details we couldn’t handle from the US. If you’re building a team in Egypt, I’d recommend them.

Pricing

Quoted for your team. Nothing hidden.

No price list to decode. You tell us about the team, we send a quote within 24 hours, and the statement you see is the statement you get.

What you pay = (people × product) + (what you use, at cost)

One fee per person, per product

Ground, Employ and Contracts each carry a flat monthly fee per person. Company-to-company agreements are one line. Volume is reflected in the quote, not hidden in a tier.

Pass-throughs at cost

Salaries, devices, venues, premiums and desks are billed at their actual price with receipts, never marked up. On the full package, service fees on extras drop away.

No setup fees, no lock-in

Funds arrive before payroll runs, contractors are paid their full rate, and you can stop at the end of any month.

Every account carries a minimum of $300 a month in service fees, so we can staff it properly. Above that, any team of any size gets a quote.

FAQ

The questions founders ask.

Who legally employs my team?

We do. Your team members sign compliant local employment or contractor agreements with RowBranch, and we handle payroll, tax, and social insurance as their employer of record.

Do I need a legal entity to hire?

No. That is the point. You hire the people; we are the local legal employer, so you never open an entity, register for payroll, or file locally.

Can I use Ground without moving my employment?

Yes. Ground works alongside Deel, Remote, or your own entity. You keep your employer of record and we handle the on-the-ground side: devices, workspace, benefits, and events.

How does pricing work?

A fee per person for each product, quoted for your team within 24 hours, plus whatever your team uses at cost, with receipts. Every account carries a minimum of $300 a month in service fees, so we can staff it properly. No setup fees, no lock-in.

How do payments work?

You receive one monthly statement. Funds are received before payroll runs, always. Contractors are paid their full agreed rate, with no fees on their side.

How do my people get paid?

To their Egyptian bank account, their nsave account, or their Wise account. Funds are received before payroll runs, and contractors receive their full agreed rate with no fees on their side.

Which countries do you cover?

Ground and Employ run in Egypt today, at full depth. Contracts are available worldwide. We expand one country at a time, at full depth rather than a thin dashboard everywhere.
