Case Study: Rideshare innovator achieves $8B revenue growth and 34-country expansion with Safeguard Global

Rideshare innovator accelerates revenue growth with Global Employment Outsourcing

Rideshare innovator faced an urgent need to hire across more than 30 countries after a new influx of venture capital, but entity setup delays (like lost paperwork in Argentina) and varied local labor rules left the company unable to deploy talent quickly. The company turned to Safeguard Global and its Global Employment Outsourcing (GEO) employer-of-record solution to accelerate international hiring while managing compliance and local HR complexity.

Safeguard Global implemented GEO with standardized HR processes, weekly coordination, and end-to-end employment lifecycle support, enabling the rideshare innovator to hire, onboard and pay 189 employees across 34 countries while it established local entities. The partnership cut time-to-market to as little as two weeks (a 1,400% speed increase), supported expansion into 34 countries, and helped drive $8 billion in revenue growth over two years—five times the growth of its closest competitor.
