What it does
Remote provides employer-of-record employment, payroll and contractor services. Employers can track an international hire from invitation through employment checks, agreement signing and payroll activation. Different services have their own per-worker charges.
To invite a saved hire, open Onboarding, choose the person's three-dot menu and select Finish and invite. Review the employment details before Invite now sends their instructions. For progress, use View status and expand each stage to see actions and completion dates; finished hires move to Team overview.
The employee supplies their details and documents, Remote completes employment checks, and the agreement is signed before payroll and applicable benefits are activated. Continuing through the add-hire flow also creates a reserve invoice in Billing. Unless Remote grants an exception, an unpaid reserve blocks onboarding, so include funding in the start-date plan.
Service choices
| Service | Published billing basis | Main use |
|---|---|---|
| Employer of Record | From USD 599 per employee/month on annual contracts | Employment through Remote |
| Global Payroll | From USD 29 per employee/month | Payroll for your own entities |
| Contractor Management | From USD 29 per contractor/month | Direct contractor administration |
| Contractor Management Plus | Monthly per contractor | Adds contractual indemnity protection, subject to its terms |
| Contractor of Record | Monthly service fee | Remote holds the contractor relationship |
| PEO | From USD 99 per employee/month | US co-employment administration |
PEO means professional employer organization and requires a US bank account here. Contractor Management charges apply to contractors who worked during the month. The included platform has no separate base fee; employment costs and service fees still need budgeting.
