“We see Remote as a leading and trusted partner in this space. The expert support they provide in local payroll, tax compliance, and HR operations has streamlined our processes and created more opportunities for growth and success on a global scale.”
“If we had to manage and coordinate everything in-house, it would cost us well over $500,000 more each year. Remote not only eliminates that financial strain but also takes the operational burden off our plate, allowing us to focus on growing our business with confidence and efficiency.”
“We operate monthly, semi-monthly and hourly payroll across multiple currencies worldwide, and our Finance Manager now has full visibility in a single platform. With Remote, that can be achieved.”
“We work with 460+ Contractors globally. I’d need to employ 5 or 6 people full time to keep on top of compliance, administration and payroll. Remote has definitely been a time and money saver for us.”

Papaya has a strong track record in international payroll, but it lacks the physical presence and specialist expertise of a globally distributed local team. Remote pairs fast, dependable support with deep local-market knowledge.
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 on payroll processing, but global employment brings additional complexities that go beyond being a reliable pay provider.
With payroll at the centre of its offering, Papaya’s EOR and contractor management capabilities are comparatively less mature.
At Remote, we understand a flexible Employer of Record (EOR) and robust Contractor Management are as important to international expansion as an effective payroll system. We have the in-house expertise and resources to back 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, while Remote is a full global employment solution that includes HR and recruitment tools Papaya does not offer. Papaya depends on third-party partners for payroll, benefits and tax services, whereas Remote owns legal entities in each country of operation to provide stronger control and compliance.
Remote’s Employer of Record (EOR) service is priced at €645/month per employee, while contractor management costs just €27/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.
Although Papaya Global is a major payroll provider operating in many countries, it does not own and manage all its legal entities — it relies on third-party outsourcing. Remote operates a 100% owned entity infrastructure and is rated higher than Papaya as a multi-country payroll provider on G2 reviews.
Papaya may be suitable if you only need multi-country payroll, but it lacks the focused features and specialist support of a full global employment platform like Remote. Remote’s ownership of legal entities also improves service reliability and consistency across regions.
If you want a dedicated global HR partner rather than only a payroll provider, go with Remote. Remote offers the specialist expertise and resources needed to expand internationally with confidence, including a comprehensive HRIS and an integrated job board to help you source, attract and manage top global talent.
