Why outstaff PHP talent for affiliate program payout automation rather than hire directly?
• Slash recruiting cycles from months to days while keeping full control of your roadmap.
• Pay only for productive hours—no payroll tax, benefits, or bench cost.
• Instantly access senior engineers who already optimised mass-payout cron jobs, multi-currency ledgers, and compliance reporting in FinTech, AdTech, and SaaS.
• Scale up or down as traffic peaks, avoiding long-term head-count commitments.
• Our dedicated account manager handles onboarding, NDAs, and IP transfer so you stay focused on delivery.
• Proven security standards (SOC-2, ISO-27001) keep sensitive payment data protected.
Result: quicker releases, lower risk, and measurable ROI—without the headache of permanent hiring.
