Client testimonials
“I needed to set up my company quickly without wasting time on admin tasks. Brio Payroll handled everything — articles of incorporation, registration, business bank account, and even payroll for my first employee. Their support is clear, human, and responsive. I highly recommend them.”
Thomas M., Founder of a digital agency in Lyon
“Before working with Brio Payroll, we had tried other providers… replies took days, sometimes weeks. With Brio Payroll, it’s the opposite: the team is incredibly responsive, clear, and professional.
We wanted to hire in France without creating a legal entity, and their EOR service made it happen fast. Communication is smooth, everything is well explained, and — most importantly — they deliver on time.”
Emily R., COO, US-based tech startup

They say it best
“Brio Payroll supported us from A to Z in the setup of our SAS in France.
The team handled every legal, administrative, and tax aspect — and they continue to manage our employee payroll today.
Their professionalism, responsiveness, and deep understanding of the French market are truly valuable for a foreign company like ours.”
João P., European Managing Director, industrial group based in Brazil
“I’m a mechanic — I know engines, not payroll.
With Brio Payroll, I found a patient team that takes the time to explain everything in plain language.
They take care of nearly everything.
Now, I can hire and manage my staff without stress — and focus on my work.”
Ahmed B., Garage Owner in Toulouse
“We were looking for a partner to set up a French subsidiary so we could hire directly, without relying on an expensive EOR service.
After comparing several providers, we chose Brio Payroll for their clear offering, personalized support, and — most of all — their pricing, which was far more competitive than others.
Thanks to them, we created our entity quickly and were able to hire locally at a lower cost.”
Sipho M., Head of Operations, engineering firm based in Johannesburg
