Frequently Asked Questions

You can get started with Remote Contractor Management for free – onboard and manage contractors, paying only for active contractors each month. If your contractors perform billable activities such as invoicing, contract signing, or receiving payments for pending invoices, the cost is $29 per contractor per month. A 3.5% service fee applies to credit card payments, but there are no hidden fees or surprises. For more details about Remote Contractor Management and our Fair Price Guarantee on our blog.

Businesses can pay contractor invoices by wire transfer, ACH, SEPA, and credit or debit card. Contractors receive payments directly to their nominated bank accounts via Stripe Connect.

It does not cost contractors anything to receive payments with Remote. Companies are responsible for paying a flat-rate management fee for active contractors, plus a 3.5% service fee for credit card payments. The contractors always receive the full value of any payments made. In cases involving currency conversions — where the company makes the payment in one currency and the contractor receives the money in a different currency — payment amounts are subject to exchange rates. However, Remote does not charge any additional currency conversion fees.

Yes! No matter where your contractors may be or how many independent contractors you may have, you can manage and pay them through Remote — and you can get started in minutes. Simply sign up for free to use the Remote platform, then enter the information for your contractors to begin onboarding. You can even onboard multiple contractors at once through our easy-to-use contractor management tool, saving you time and ensuring your contractors receive a great experience throughout the transition.

Contractor compliance is a serious matter. Remote has expertise in employment laws and contractor classification laws all around the world, which allows us to provide the highest standard of service for your international contractor team. With Remote, you can use localised contracts to ensure your independent contractor agreements are in compliance with local laws. If you ever need to convert a contractor to an employee, Remote can help you do so effortlessly within our platform.

We're happy to have you! Whether you're already a Remote customer or new to our platform, you can easily onboard, offboard, and manage independent contractors worldwide. Remote simplifies the process of paying your contractors in their preferred currencies, managing invoices, automating payments, and keeping track of essential documentation. You only pay for active contractors on Remote, so if you stop working with a contractor for a few months, you don't need to do anything to save money. Remote automatically detects if your contractors are active and only charges you when you‌ use our services. For more information, see the Remote Fair Price Guarantee.
