Rise, a hybrid payroll and global workforce payment platform, has surpassed $1 billion in total payroll volume, doubling its previous milestone of $500 million in just nine months. The platform enables businesses to pay employees in both fiat and cryptocurrency, ensuring compliance and flexibility across 190+ countries.
