What the Rippling +

Lano

 Integration Does

  • Unified directory visibility: Lano-employed and contracted international workers appear in Rippling's employee directory alongside direct employees.
  • IT provisioning for EOR and contract workers: Application access and tooling can be provisioned through Rippling for Lano-managed staff.
  • Employer-of-record clarity: Payroll and compliance remain with Lano, while Rippling manages directory visibility and provisioning.
  • Entity transition support: Workers can transition from Lano's EOR arrangement to direct Rippling employment as the company establishes its own entity.

What Mid-Market Teams Get Wrong

  • Assuming Rippling manages EOR payroll for Lano workers: Lano remains employer of record and handles payroll independently; Rippling's role is directory visibility and IT provisioning, not payroll for these workers.
  • Not including Lano contractors in the Rippling directory: Contractors on Lano can also be given Rippling directory presence and IT provisioning; excluding them creates an incomplete picture of the team.
  • Not planning the entity transition path: Companies growing quickly in a country benefit from documenting the Lano-to-entity transition in advance rather than figuring it out under time pressure.
  • Skipping IT provisioning configuration for Lano workers: Provisioning rules need explicit setup to cover Lano-employed or contracted workers, or they can be missed entirely.

How thePeopleStack Configures This

We configure directory sync so Lano-employed and contracted international workers appear in Rippling's unified employee view, giving managers visibility into the full global team regardless of employment structure.

We set up IT provisioning rules so Lano workers get appropriate application access and tooling through Rippling, while employment and compliance remain managed by Lano as employer of record or contractor manager.

For companies planning to establish their own entity in a country over time, we document the transition path from Lano EOR to direct Rippling employment under the new legal entity.

USA & Canadian Operations Note

Lano is used by US mid-market companies hiring internationally through a contractor management and EOR model, often with a focus on European and global talent.

Canadian and cross-border operations: Companies with established Canadian entities manage that team directly in Rippling; Lano is reserved for countries where the company lacks its own legal entity and needs an EOR or contractor management solution.

FAQs

How does this integration work with Lano's EOR and contractor model?

Lano-employed or Lano-contracted workers can be reflected in Rippling's directory for unified visibility, with IT provisioning managed through Rippling even though employment and compliance remain with Lano.

Does this integration support unified headcount visibility?

Yes — Lano workers appearing in Rippling's directory support consistent headcount reporting across the full global team regardless of employment structure.

Does Rippling handle payroll for Lano-employed workers?

Lano processes payroll and manages statutory compliance for its EOR-employed workers; Rippling's role is directory visibility and IT provisioning, not payroll processing for these employees.

Can companies transition off Lano to a direct Rippling entity later?

As a company establishes its own entity in a country where workers are currently on Lano's EOR arrangement, those workers can transition to direct Rippling employment under the new entity.

How long does configuration take?

A standard setup covering directory sync and IT provisioning for Lano-employed or contracted workers typically takes 2–3 hours.
