“We regard Remote as a leading, trusted partner in this field. Their specialist support with local payroll, tax compliance and HR operations has simplified our processes and opened up further opportunities for growth and success on an international scale.”
“Managing and coordinating everything internally would add more than $500,000 USD to our yearly expenses. Remote removes that financial pressure and lifts the operational load from our team, letting us focus on growing the business with certainty and efficiency.”
“We process payroll monthly, semi-monthly and hourly in several currencies across the globe, and our Finance Manager has complete oversight from a single platform. Remote enables you to do the same.”

Papaya performs well in international payroll, yet it doesn’t have the same on-the-ground presence or specialist knowledge as a globally distributed expert team. With Remote, you gain prompt, dependable support backed by deep market expertise.With Remote, you get fast, reliable support coupled with deep knowledge of international markets.
Specialist 24/7 support at no extra cost, on any pricing plan
Industry-leading expertise from genuine local experts
A personalised, human onboarding experience
Papaya may be strong at payroll processing, yet global employment brings complexities that demand more than a dependable payment provider.
With payroll as their primary focus, Papaya’s EOR and Contractor Management offerings are less developed by comparison.
At Remote, we know a flexible Employer of Record (EOR) and robust Contractor Management are just as crucial to international growth as an effective payroll system. And we have the dedicated, in-house expertise and resources to match our industry-leading global employment solutions.
When you choose Remote, you’re not just paying for another service provider — you’re investing in a partnership.
Papaya is a specialist global payroll software vendor, while Remote is a full global employment solution that offers HR and recruitment tools Papaya does not. Papaya depends on third-party partners for payroll, benefits and tax administration, whereas Remote owns legal entities in each country of operation, providing greater control and compliance.
Remote’s Employer of Record (EOR) service is priced at A$1,069/month per employee, while contractor management costs just A$44/month. Papaya’s prices are comparable, but you’re likely to pay additional third-party costs and transaction fees. Remote’s fair price guarantee ensures maximum cost-efficiency and transparency.
Papaya Global is a prominent multi-country payroll provider operating in many nations, but it does not own and manage all its legal entities — instead it relies on third-party outsourcing. Remote runs a 100% owned entity infrastructure and is rated superior to Papaya as a multi-country payroll provider on G2.
Papaya can provide an effective global payroll solution, but it lacks the specialist features and dedicated support of a full global employment platform like Remote. Remote’s ownership of legal entities further improves service reliability and consistency across regions.
If you want a dedicated global HR partner rather than just a payroll provider, choose Remote. Remote provides the expertise and resources companies need to expand globally with confidence, including a comprehensive HRIS and a fully integrated job board to help you source, attract and manage the best global talent.
