Remote’s Contractor Management suite includes three tiered plans designed for different requirements:
Contractor Management (£23/active contractor/month): Manage and pay contractors using localised contracts, bulk payments and self‑serve onboarding. Compliance liability remains with you.
Contractor Management Plus (£79/contractor/month): Includes the standard features plus a £100,000 compliance warranty to protect against misclassification risks.
Contractor of Record (COR) (15% of the contractor’s invoice or £260/month minimum): Outsource compliance and payment responsibilities to Remote, with indemnity and IP ownership assurances.
Covering 200+ jurisdictions, Remote delivers robust compliance, open pricing and advanced features such as bulk invoicing and KYB/KYC checks. Unlike Deel, Remote charges only for active contractors — no hidden fees or deposits.

Remote also starts from lower rates and imposes no hidden administration charges.
