How it works

At 8x5, we understand that many independent contractors value their autonomy and flexibility. That's why we offer a unique solution that combines the freedom of 1099 contracting with the advantages of W2 employee benefits. It's the best of both worlds, tailored to meet the specific needs of contractors like you. 8x5 is a collective of independent workers and freelancers. By joining together, we’re able to access the benefits of employment at a large organization, without sacrificing their autonomy and flexibility.

When you sign up for 8x5, you’re signing up for more than a generic tech subscription. You’re joining our collective company - which means company benefits without losing independence. 

All members of the 8x5 company become employed by 8x5, which is how we can offer you W2 benefits like healthcare insurance, tax support, income smoothing and billing and invoicing support. 

But don’t worry, we won’t try to change you. Instead, we’re here to help you do more, with less administrative headaches. 

Not sure you’re ready for such a commitment? We get it - relationships are hard. 

Billing and invoicing support is available to anyone at any time. Learn more here.
