Overview

Embedded

Embedded gives partners direct API access to Deel’s global employment infrastructure, integrated natively into their own product. Deel remains invisible to end users. A forward-deployed Deel engineer is assigned to support the integration. Full deployment typically takes approximately 180 days.

Key capabilities

  • Single contract, 150+ countries: no country-by-country vendor relationships required
  • Compliance owned by Deel: no third-party gaps or handoffs in any market
  • Multi-tenant architecture: parent/child account structure built for resale
  • Dedicated support: a forward-deployed Deel engineer assigned to the integration

Who it serves

Embedded is designed for platforms that want to offer global employment natively: fintechs, HRIS platforms, ATS tools, talent marketplaces, and domestic payroll providers. The partner’s engineering team builds the integration; end platform users never see Deel.
