Payroll isn’t broken. It’s just stuck in 2004. Your old system tried its best. Every delayed payment in cross-border teams isn’t just a number, it’s someone’s delayed rent, a missed mortgage, or a lost weekend of sleep. That’s exactly why we built an end-to-end global workforce payments infrastructure, so no company has to learn the hard way. Thinking about expanding your contingent workforce? Here are 10 reasons why this isn’t optional anymore, it’s your competitive edge.👇 https://okt.to/xUBtaW

Hiring full-time isn’t always the smart move. And scaling with spreadsheets? Definitely not. Contingent workforces offer flexibility, cost savings, and on-demand access to global talent. They also come with a side of complexity, compliance headaches, payment delays, and way too many approval chains. We broke down the 10 biggest benefits of using a contingent workforce and how to actually unlock them without losing your grip (or your weekend). The chaos is optional. 👇 https://okt.to/GZhEvN

Global teams are rethinking how they manage contingent work… and we’re here for it. More contractors. More countries. More complexity. But also: more opportunity to build something better. That’s why Papaya Global is sponsoring #CWSSummit North America (Sept 8–9 | The Omni | Dallas, TX). Not just to talk shop (though our small talk includes SLAs and SOC 2), but because when contingent workforce strategy grows up, payments, compliance, and visibility need to grow with it. If you’re attending, come say hi. If not, follow along, we’re just getting started. Staffing Industry Analysts

It’s not just wrong. It’s confidently wrong. In global payroll, ‘Efficient’ is often code for cutting corners. That's why you simply cannot pay a Brazilian employee in USD. Brazil doesn’t do shortcuts. If you’re hiring locally, you’re paying locally. Next up: a country where misclassifying a worker gets you a fine, and a very passive-aggressive government email.

Big congratulations to the amazing team at CyberArk on the acquisition by Palo Alto Networks! CyberArk was one of Papaya’s first global clients, and we’ve admired your bold vision and relentless execution from the very start. Watching your growth has been an absolute privilege, but let’s be honest, this milestone clearly wouldn’t have happened without the excellence of your global payroll team. 😉 Hats off to the real MVPs behind the scenes! Here’s to this exciting new chapter and many more wins ahead!

What can a tiny delay in one country do to your global roadmap? This is The Butterfly Effect of Global Payments 🦋 We like to think of global payments as linear. Money out. Money in. Done. But, global payments systems are sensitive, interconnected, and delicate: - Local currencies - Time zones - Banking rails - Regulatory touchpoints Individually, these factors are predictable. Together, they demand perfect orchestration. The Butterfly Effect is the idea that a small action, like a butterfly flapping its wings, can trigger a chain reaction that leads to a storm on the other side of the world. This is the Butterfly Effect of cross-border finance: A developer's salary is delayed in Colombia (again) ⬇️ The developer leaves the company ⬇️ The project release is delayed ⬇️ Sales targets are not met ⬇️ The company's share price falls Small issues don’t stay small in a global system. They ripple. They compound. They create risk far from the point of origin. If you're scaling globally, the question isn't "Can we pay people?" It's "Can we detect the butterfly, and absorb the impact before it becomes a storm?" 🦋

If payroll were a strategy game, USD would be your wildcard. But can you play it in Brazil? 🃏 True or False? Poll below. (And no phoning a friend.)

"This is exactly what I love about working with a company like Papaya. You're active, you're changing, and you're evolving." That quote came from a client last week. It reflects what today’s global workforce leaders actually need: 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. We took this feedback as a sign to keep doing what we do best, translate compliance chaos into operational clarity, all while the pieces are moving. Why this matters to you? CFOs overseeing an end-to-end global workforce payroll and payments infrastructure don’t need assumptions, they need clarity across every jurisdiction. It only takes one missed update to cause trouble that travels just as far as the money does. The rules don’t wait. Neither do we. That's why our clients count on our compliance updates. Real updates, in real time. Here’s a glimpse at what’s new this week: ℹ️ 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐚 – 15 September declared a new mandatory public holiday for 2025. ℹ️ 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐫𝐤 – Senate passes bill mandating weekly pay for manual workers. ℹ️ 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 – Employer Workers’ Comp contributions rise to 2% starting 1 August 2025. Need to stay in the loop? Stay ahead of every jurisdiction. https://okt.to/9ZTKQF
