Where VaultLeap Wins
No platform fee — ever
Deel charges employers $49/month per contractor. VaultLeap has no platform fee for you or your client. You just need a bank account, not a payroll subscription.
Transparent FX with no hidden markup
Deel embeds a 0.6–2% FX markup in the exchange rate with no line-item visibility. VaultLeap charges ~0.50% partner FX spread — you see exactly what you pay.
Lower cost on $5K/month payroll
A contractor earning $5,000/month through Deel who withdraws via PayPal in a foreign currency loses $155–225/month in fees. Through VaultLeap: ~$62.50 total (1.25%).
Stablecoin settlement built in
Your fiat deposits settle as USDC automatically — no intermediary needed. Deel charges $5 flat under $300 or 1.6% over $300 for Coinbase withdrawals.
