Pricing on the Official Page

On November 6, 2026, Remote's pricing page was headed "Transparent pricing, from day one" and cited 30,000+ companies and a 4.8 G2 rating (the company's own figures). Employer of Record started at $599 per employee per month for annual contracts, with hiring in 90+ countries without a local entity, a dedicated onboarding specialist, local payroll, compliance protections, localized benefits and in-house experts. Global Payroll started at $29 per employee per month for countries where you own the entity, covering gross-to-net calculation, tax filings, time off and expense sync and reports. Contractor Management started at $29 per contractor per month, only for contractors you actively work with that month, in 190+ countries with localized contracts and 1099-NEC generation, and Contractor Management Plus started at $99 per contractor per month with $100,000 indemnity per contractor and up to $1M per company. Every product listed the Remote platform as included with no base fee. The homepage said the platform covers 150+ countries. Because EOR prices are per employee per month, ten hires would start at about $5,990 a month, so confirm contract length and extras with sales.

What Other Users Say About Remote

Public feedback and comparison data from third-party sites as of November 6, 2026. We found little direct complaint data, and comparison sites often have commercial ties.

• Ratings: a Findstack comparison lists Remote at about 4.5 out of 5 from roughly 1,150 reviews against Deel at 4.8 from about 2,200, Capterra shows Remote at 4.4 from 97 reviews with value for money at 4.0, and HR Stacks gives a weighted 4.2 across more than 4,000 reviews on G2, Capterra and Trustpilot.
• Pricing: third-party sources disagree, with one putting Remote EOR at $699 per employee per month and another at $599 matching Deel, so rely on the official page above and ask about contract terms.
• Service: one comparison says Remote is lighter to set up and puts a specialist on EOR plans, but support runs through email and chat rather than a 24-hour desk, while Deel is described as having stronger support and slower onboarding in less common countries.
• Country coverage: sources quote different counts, from a smaller list than Deel's 130+ to Remote at 170 countries, and Remote itself says 90+ for EOR and 150+ overall.
• Gaps: no Trustpilot complaint pages surfaced in our search, and comparison sites such as Findstack and Costbench may earn referral fees.
