“We regard Remote as a leading and trusted partner in this space. Thanks to the expert support they provide in local payroll, tax compliance, and HR operations, our workflows have become more efficient and we have seen increased opportunities for global growth and success.”
“If we had to manage and coordinate everything in-house, it would cost us well over $500,000 more each year. Remote not only removes that financial strain but also relieves us of operational tasks, enabling us to focus on expanding our business with confidence and greater efficiency.”
“Our payroll runs monthly, semi-monthly and hourly across multiple currencies worldwide, and our Finance Manager has complete visibility on one platform. This is achievable with Remote.”
“Across the world we engage 460+ Contractors. To oversee compliance, administration and payroll properly, I’d otherwise need five or six full time staff. Remote has unquestionably cut both our time and cost burdens.”

Remote is the only global HR platform which allows companies to issue equity to their team members.

Unlimited EOR indemnification covering Remote’s obligations for all Remote customers

Papaya has experience in international payroll, yet does not possess the same physical footprint or specialist expertise of a truly global expert network. With Remote, you receive fast, dependable support backed by in-depth international market knowledge.
Specialist 24/7 support included at no extra cost on any pricing plan
Industry-leading expertise from local experts
A personalised, human onboarding experience
Papaya may perform well at payroll processing, but the complexities of global employment demand more than a dependable payment provider.
Because payroll is their core focus, Papaya’s EOR and contractor management capabilities are comparatively less mature.
At Remote, we recognise that a flexible Employer of Record (EOR) and robust Contractor Management are equally essential for international expansion as an effective payroll system. We possess the in‑house expertise and resources to support our market‑leading global employment solutions.
When you choose Remote, you’re not just paying for another service provider — you’re investing in a partnership.
Papaya specialises in global payroll software, whereas Remote is a comprehensive global employment solution offering HR and recruitment tools not available from Papaya. Papaya depends on third‑party partners for payroll, benefits and tax management; Remote, in contrast, owns legal entities in each operating country, delivering stronger control and compliance.
Remote’s Employer of Record (EOR) service is priced at $699/month per employee, while contractor management costs just $29/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 across many jurisdictions, but it does not own and operate all its legal entities — it relies on third‑party outsourcing. Remote runs a 100% owned entity infrastructure and, according to G2 reviews, is rated a superior multi‑country payroll provider compared with Papaya.
Papaya can serve as a capable global payroll solution, but it lacks the dedicated features and specialist 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 need a committed global HR partner rather than merely a payroll vendor, choose Remote. Remote provides the expertise and resources to help companies expand internationally with confidence, including a full HRIS and an integrated job board to source, attract and manage top global talent.
