While we believe in fair and transparent pricing, traditional EORs tend to have complicated pricing structures with lots of hidden fees that could blow your budget out of the water. Make sure you understand your provider’s fee structure as you’re budgeting for your international workforce.
Traditional EORs typically only support employees. The Remote platform has robust support for contractors and employees alike, so you can manage your entire workforce in one place.
What’s the time-to-hire in a given country? Will you have to do a lot of administrative work to get a new hire onboarded? Is your global employment provider streamlining the hiring process for you through automation or do they still rely on manual processes and email? The Remote platform is modern and secure with an automated onboarding process, so your new hires can start as quickly as possible.
Remote guarantees fair and transparent pricing at just $599 per employee per month when billed annually. There are no hidden fees — one price includes all payroll, tax, benefits, compliance management, and 24/7 local customer support. Plus, contractor management is $29 per contractor per month in more than 170 countries.
Velocity Global charges a significant setup fee per employee, often with a minimum fee per country. On top of that, you’ll pay a monthly service fee that's a percentage of per each employee’s fully burdened compensation, again with a minimum fee. These minimums and additional fees make it cost prohibitive to hire top international talent.

Remote is the only company with a 100% vertically integrated stack. That means we own legal entities in all covered countries for faster service with no third-party delays. Owning our own entities enables us to provide faster legal and HR support in each country, ironclad intellectual property (IP) protection, and fair and transparent pricing.
Velocity Global owns legal entities in some countries and relies on a network of third-party partners in others. They act as an intermediary, outsourcing employment to in-country providers, passing on their fees and pocketing the difference. This is not only expensive for you but can also cause delays when onboarding new hires or requesting support. Furthermore, how can you trust that your sensitive data and IP is being properly handled and protected?
Remote offers invoices and payments for contractors in more than 170 countries for a low cost of $29 per contractor per month. We have thousands of contractors on our platform today.
Velocity Global acquired a separate product called iWork Global to boost contractor management capabilities.
Remote offers the strongest protection for your IP and invention rights in the industry. We are constantly monitoring changes in IP laws so you receive the maximum rights to your company’s IP.
Velocity Global relies on third-party partners in most countries, putting your intellectual property rights at risk. An intermediary may inadvertently retain possession of your IP without your knowledge or consent, forcing you to fight the issue in foreign courts.
Remote is SOC 2 compliant and 100% GDPR compliant. We don’t rely on third parties, so we never share your sensitive data. Period.
Velocity Global holds an ISO 27001 certification, another recognized standard for data protection. But you cannot guarantee that their third-party partners adhere to the same standards, leaving your data at risk.
Remote offers a secure and modern platform. Our streamlined and automated onboarding process significantly reduces your time to hire in a country. No long back-and-forths over email to set up a new hire. Plus, all necessary employment documents are securely stored for easy access.
Velocity Global’s platform has an outdated user interface, and their onboarding process can be slow and manual. You can expect a lot of back-and-forth over email, which can significantly slow your time-to-hire.
When you choose Remote, you receive 24/7 access to our local HR and legal experts. Our support teams are spread across the globe, guaranteeing you receive the most comprehensive and informed service with every interaction.
Velocity Global relies on third-party experts to provide information to your team members. Answers to important questions could take a few days as they reach out to their partner vendors before getting back to you. This service also extends to your employees, who may not get direct assistance when needed.
