We're heading to iGB L!VE 2026 (iGB Events), and we're sending two of our best. Kristina Tertyshnikova (UK BD Lead) and Emin Aliev (VP BD, 4dev.com) will be representing 4dev.com in London on 1-2 July, among 15,000+ people shaping the future of iGaming. The reality of iGaming: it runs on distributed talent. Developers, designers, SEO specialists, media buyers and affiliates spread across Europe, Asia, LATAM and the CIS. And paying all of them brings the same headaches every team knows: – Staying legally compliant across dozens of jurisdictions – Passing KYC/KYB without slowing everyone down – Juggling dozens of invoices and currencies every month That's exactly what we take off your plate. 4dev.com gives you: – One contract and one invoice, no matter how many contractors you have – Full KYC/KYB and legal compliance handled for you – Payouts across 150+ countries in 30+ currencies – 0% withdrawal fee for the contractors themselves Let's meet in London. Kristina and Emin will be on the ground both days to meet current clients, connect with new partners, and show operators how to make global payouts the easy part of their operation. Want to talk? Drop us a message or catch us at the afterparties. See you in London. #iGBLIVE #iGBLIVE2026 #iGaming #iGamingIndustry #OnlineGaming #GamingIndustry #GlobalHiring #DistributedTeams #GlobalPayments 

The all-in cost is the true price of working with a contractor payout provider — it covers everything you actually pay. This cost breaks down into five key variables: - Provider fee — the rate you pay to run payouts for your team. - Additional costs — these include anything beyond the provider fee, such as account fees, compliance charges, and other add-ons. - Operational time — the hours your team spends integrating and managing the solution. - Legal risk — for example, the risk of contractor misclassification. - Reputational cost — delayed payments, clunky interfaces, or outages—anything that causes friction for your team and erodes trust. What does the all-in cost look like with 4dev.com? - The exact figure depends on your setup, but here’s a rough estimate. - Provider fee: up to 3%, with the final cost disclosed upfront. - Additional costs: no account fees, no compliance charges, no hidden payments. - Operational time: According to our clients, processing payouts for the entire team takes about five minutes, and documents appear in the dashboard immediately. - Legal risk: 4dev.com takes this risk off your company’s shoulders. - Reputational cost: an intuitive interface, flexible withdrawal options, and same-day payments are standard. What does the full cost of your current solution look like?

Last week, BCN IT HUB hosted a closed-format meetup in Barcelona on one of the more pressing questions in tech right now: where does AI end, and where does the human begin? 4dev.com CEO&Founder Dmitry Kochnev shared his perspective on AI and hiring. The central question he put on the table: not whether AI replaces people, but where each one actually wins. AI outperforms when scale and speed are what matter. Agentic coding, game testing, mass content generation, personalized support at volume. These are areas where human throughput simply cannot compete. Humans hold the advantage when the cost of a mistake is high. Product discovery, enterprise sales, architectural decisions, creative direction. These require judgment that does not translate cleanly into a pipeline. The boundary, as Dmitry noted, no longer runs between professions. It runs between types of tasks. And one observation worth sitting with: sometimes hiring a person for routine work is simply cheaper than paying for infrastructure and tokens. The takeaway from the evening: AI replaces tasks, not responsibility. More from the conversation at the link: https://bit.ly/3QcCl2o Thank you to everyone who joined.

When does an investor hurt a company more than help it? That was the topic at Fuckup Bingo Barcelona, where 4dev.com joined as a partner. The case that opened the discussion: an investor added 5% equity to a term sheet for himself  "for a referral." Just decided that was something he could do. To avoid situations like this, here is what the speakers recommended checking before you sign anything: Exit terms. Some investors write in the right to get paid first when the company is sold — sometimes more than once. Technically legal. Practically unfair to everyone else at the table. Investor background. If someone comes from banking or traditional finance, they may genuinely not understand how startups operate. They will push for profitability exactly when you need to be focused on growth. Who is already in your cap table. Your existing investor composition is either an asset or a liability. If the wrong people are already in, every new round gets harder. The evening also turned personal. One question came up: what would you tell yourself 5 to 10 years ago? Two answers that stayed with the room: "Find a senior partner or mentor early. Building without one means you pay full price for every mistake yourself." "Trust your pattern recognition. When you have seen thousands of companies, your brain picks up signals before you can put them into words. Accumulated experience runs faster than analysis." The closing thought of the night: red flags follow the same logic everywhere — with investors, partners, and contractors. Hidden clauses, blurred accountability, documents that look fine until someone actually reads them. At 4dev.com, legal responsibility sits with us not with you. One agreement instead of hundreds with your contractors. Full document flow and accountability for the entire process.

EOR, COR, and Payout Ops are three different categories that companies often confuse. As a result, they choose the wrong tool and face problems after launch. To avoid this scenario, let’s break down when each category fits best. COR — Contractor of Record COR covers a different scenario — when a company works with independent contractors around the world and does not consider hiring them as full-time employees. Here, the key challenge is legally correct contractor engagement: the contractual model, compliance checks, task assignment, confirmation of completed work, supporting documents, and payouts. COR helps build a process where working with an international team is transparent, automated, and audit-ready. EOR — Employer of Record EOR is needed when a company wants to hire an employee in another country but does not want to open a local legal entity. The provider becomes the formal employer and takes responsibility for payroll, taxes, local employment compliance, and benefits. This solution fits when you need an employment setup: an employment contract, work visa support, social benefits, paid time off, and so on. Payout Ops This option is the operational infrastructure for regular work with contractors. As the number of contractors grows, new questions appear: who is paying whom, for which period, for which task, in which currency, what documents confirm the payout, who approved it, and where all this information can be found later. Payout Ops is a process that automates payouts, documents, status updates, data exports, and operational control. How to choose the right category? If you work with independent contractors and need to cover the contractual, compliance, and documentation side, you need COR. If you need to hire an employee in another country, consider EOR providers. If you already have an international contractor team and your main challenge is regular payouts, reporting, and operational control, you need Payout Ops. The market often mixes these categories together. But the problems they solve are different. Which category does your team actually need?

Together with Dmitry Kochnev, CEO and Founder of 4dev.com , we recorded a highly insightful podcast. We discussed how companies today manage international teams, freelancers, and contractors. We covered global payroll solutions, documentation workflows, compliance requirements, business scaling, and the challenges of managing distributed teams across different jurisdictions. The conversation was practical and experience-driven, focused on real-world challenges rather than theory for the sake of theory. I am confident this episode will be valuable both for freelancers and for employers operating internationally or planning to expand into global markets. The podcast is currently in post-production and will be released soon. Stay tuned for updates. A special thank you to Dmitry for his openness, expertise, and engaging discussion. It was truly a pleasure to connect and exchange insights. I hope our cooperation will continue to grow stronger, especially since we are already working with the 4dev.com platform. Thank you for staying with us. Wishing everyone success and all the best! #4dev #Freelance #GlobalPayroll #RemoteWork #Business

Last week we hosted two events in Cyprus On May 28, we kicked off with our Networking Sunset Party a relaxed evening by the sea with a DJ, cocktails, and conversations that start on their own and go on longer than planned. On May 30, we hosted the Executive Brunch after GDCy an intimate gathering for founders, executives, and entrepreneurs. We talked about real business challenges, shared experience and insights. One highlight was our founder Dmitry Kochnev, who spoke about the latest tax changes and news in Cyprus, and shared his perspective on what companies are dealing with today: distributed teams, working with contractors, and compliance. Guests said the conversation was practical, honest, and genuinely useful. That's exactly what we were going for. Different formats, different crowds but both events left us with the same feeling. Warm atmosphere, real conversations, and people who genuinely enjoyed being in the room together. The feedback we've received since have been amazing. Knowing that people left with something useful a new connection, a good conversation, a real insight — means more to us than any metric. We're planning to make Cyprus a regular stop and are already thinking about new formats. Hope to see more of you there. You can see more photo here: https://bit.ly/4dQo8RZ
