Hire, manage and pay independent contractorsindependent contractors globally

Small agencies, studios, startups, and service businesses working with 3–25 independent contractors or supplier teams who invoice you and manage their own taxes. We work globally—from US agencies to teams paying contractors internationally via bank transfers, Wise, or PayPal.

Log into your portal and add contractors, then send them an invite. Contractors verify their identity, sign contracts, and add their payout details. Once contracts are active, you or contractors create payment requests—you review and approve before paying directly from your own accounts. Kontrable tracks all approvals, payments, and statuses through integrations, so both you and contractors get notifications and can see what's happening in real-time.

No. You pay contractors directly through your bank, Wise, PayPal, Payoneer, or any method you choose. Kontrable never holds, routes, or processes payments. We only organize your records and track what you send from your own accounts.

No. Kontrable is contractor management software. We don't become the legal employer, handle payroll taxes, or manage benefits. We're designed for businesses that already pay contractors directly and just need a simple way to organize contracts, track invoices, and maintain compliance records.

Yes. Kontrable supports onboarding both independent freelancers (individuals) and service companies (business entities) on the same platform. When contractors verify during onboarding, we collect the right information for each type—personal details for individuals, business registration and tax ID for companies.

Yes. We partner with Veriff, a trust and verification service used by major platforms globally. Contractors verify their identity (KYC—Know Your Contractor) before they can access contracts or submit requests. Businesses complete business verification (KYB—Know Your Business) during onboarding to confirm they're legitimate entities.

You send payments from your own accounts as usual. Kontrable logs approvals and uses integrations (Plaid for bank transfers, PayPal webhooks, Wise transfers) to detect when money is sent or completed. Both you and your contractors get notifications and can track payment status in real-time through the portal.

The contractor portal is a secure space where contractors can verify their identity, review and sign contracts, add their payout details, submit payment requests, and track payment status. On Starter, they access this via a kontrable.io subdomain. On Pro, it's hosted on your custom domain with your full branding (logo, colors, favicon)—so contractors see your brand, not Kontrable's.

Yes. For US contractors, Kontrable collects W-9 tax forms during onboarding, tracks all payments you send throughout the year, and generates 1099-NEC export data at year-end. You file directly with the IRS or provide the data to your accountant. Kontrable doesn't file the forms—we keep your records organized and export-ready for your filing process.

Kontrable uses flat monthly pricing with no per-contractor fees. Starter is $49/month for up to 10 contractors; Pro is $99/month for up to 25. Annual plans save you 2 months. Try any plan free for 14 days—no credit card required. Cancel anytime from your account settings.

You'll get a notification when you're approaching your limit. You can upgrade to a higher plan anytime, or contact us for custom pricing if you need more. Your active contractors won't be deactivated—you just need to upgrade to add new ones.

Yes. Cancel anytime from your account billing settings. You and your contractors retain full access until the end of your current billing period. You can export all your contractor records, contracts, payment logs, and audit trails anytime as CSV or PDF files.
