Virtual Assistant Platforms
For a full-time, dedicated offshore hire (cold calling, admin, invoicing, scheduling), OnlineJobs.ph is the standard platform for hiring Philippines-based virtual assistants directly, without a staffing-agency markup. For project-based or part-time work, Upwork and Fiverr let you hire and pay freelancers on a per-task or hourly basis with built-in payment protection.
Global Payroll Tools
Paying an international contractor correctly matters: misclassifying a foreign worker as a U.S. employee (or vice versa) creates real tax and legal exposure. Deel and similar platforms handle international contractor agreements and compliance in one place. For simple contractor payments without a full payroll platform, Wise for Business offers low-fee international transfers at the real mid-market exchange rate, instead of the marked-up rate most banks charge.
