Head to head
Both are Merchant of Record and both issue self-billing invoices. The gaps show up on reach, rails and economics.
Pricing
The structural difference is direction: a cost that scales with volume, or a rate that falls as you grow.
Gigapay
A Pro plan at €279/month plus a 4.9% fixed fee per payout, with an Enterprise plan on custom pricing for companies moving €1.8M+ annually and volume-based rate reduction (gigapay.com/pricing, verified 2026). So there is a base subscription before the first payout, then a percentage on top.
Talentir
One all-in rate on payout volume, from 3% moving toward 0.9% at volume. No monthly fee, no per-transaction fee, no FX markup, no implementation fee, no modules. A single volume rate that falls as you grow, plus yield and recovered FX that flow back to you.
The details
The same capability, stated for each side.
The honest read
Reach stops at the edge of Europe. Gigapay covers 65+ countries; pay creators in Latin America, Africa or Asia and the gaps show up fast.
No crypto rail, and instant depends on the bank. Outside the core European rails, speed falls back to standard bank timing.
Payouts stay a cost. A monthly fee plus 4.9% per payout means every payout is money out.

FAQ
Yes. Gigapay acts as Merchant of Record as the contractual payer and generates self-billing invoices automatically. Talentir also acts as Merchant of Record on the payout side, issuing a compliant self-billing invoice per payout with VAT and reconciliation handled automatically. Neither is unique on this; reach, rails and economics decide it.
