You can start using Remote Contractor Management for free! Take advantage of a 30-day trial to onboard and manage contractors without any cost. After the trial period, if your contractors are involved in billable activities such as invoicing, contract signing, or receiving payments, the fee is $29 per contractor per month. Payments made by credit card incur a 3.5% service fee, but there are no hidden charges or surprises. Learn more about Remote Contractor Management and our Fair Price Guarantee on our blog.

Your free-trial is activated immediately after you add a contractor. 

Businesses can settle contractor invoices using wire transfer, ACH, SEPA, and credit card. Contractors receive their payments directly to their nominated bank accounts through Stripe Connect.

Contractors can receive payments in the same currency for free. However, our payment partner may charge a 1-2% fee for currency conversions. There are no additional fees for receiving payments as a contractor through Remote, and we do not add any service or handling fees.

Absolutely, you can. Additionally, you can utilise our contract templates and guides to ensure you're meeting all local labour laws and regulations.

While Remote does not provide legal advice, we do offer localised contractor agreements and a detailed statement of work to help you and your contractors comply with local labour laws and regulations. Additionally, Remote provides an extra layer of protection against misclassification risks through our Contractor Management Plus service. This add-on not only ensures compliance for contractors but also offers indemnity coverage in case of misclassification. Learn more about Contractor Management Plus.

Engaging an independent contractor management service like Remote helps you cut down on repetitive admin work, reduce the chance of human error, and concentrate on the core parts of your strategy.

Managing payroll for contractors is a crucial feature to expect from such service providers, but it’s just one piece of the puzzle. Equally essential are localized contract templates, facilitating international payments, and handling taxes across various countries.

While it may seem like a lot to handle, partnering with a reliable provider like Remote makes the process smoother and lowers risks. This allows you to spend more time focusing on growing your business instead of dealing with the intricacies of labor laws and tax codes in different countries.

Not every service is the same, so it’s important to understand the key elements of effective contractor management and payroll services. Localized contracts and efficient global payments are just the starting point.

Expert advice and support help you stay agile in making critical decisions. With Remote’s guidance, you can navigate the complexities of onboarding contractors in over 170 countries and access on-demand visa and immigration assistance.

Paying contractors, particularly those overseas, can exhaust your team's resources. Each new contract adds to your workload, and keeping up with international laws is challenging for a rapidly growing team. To manage contractor payments effectively, you need a scalable system that ensures compliance with local labour and tax laws. For example, in the US, you must collect and automatically generate the necessary tax forms.

Handling multiple currencies without incurring large fees is also essential. Automating payments can future-proof your operations, saving time and reducing errors as you expand.

We're stoked to have you on board! Whether you're an existing Remote customer or new to our platform, you can easily onboard, offboard, and manage independent contractors worldwide. Remote simplifies paying your contractors in their preferred currencies, managing invoices, automating payments, and tracking important documentation. You only pay for active contractors on Remote, so if you stop working with a specific contractor for a few months, you don't need to do anything to save money. Remote automatically detects whether your contractors are active and only charges you when you‌ use our services. For more info, check out the Remote Fair Price Guarantee.
