“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.”
“Our payroll runs monthly, twice monthly and hourly across multiple currencies worldwide, and our finance manager has visibility of everything from a single platform. Remote made that possible.”
“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 track record in international payroll, but doesn’t have the same physical presence or global specialist expertise.With Remote, you receive fast, reliable support backed by in-depth 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 in payroll processing, yet global employment complexities need far more than a dependable payment service.
Because payroll is their main focus, Papaya’s EOR and contractor management solutions are comparatively less mature.
At Remote, we understand that a flexible Employer of Record (EOR) and a robust Contractor Management are equally important to international expansion as a reliable payroll system. We also have the dedicated, in-house expertise and resources to support our market-leading global employment solutions.
Choosing Remote isn’t simply hiring another service provider — it’s an investment in a partnership.
Papaya specialises in global payroll software, whereas Remote provides a full global employment solution with HR and recruitment features Papaya lacks. Papaya depends on third-party partners for payroll, benefits and tax administration; Remote, by contrast, owns legal entities in every country it operates in, giving stronger control and compliance.
Remote’s Employer of Record (EOR) service is priced at NZ$1,155/month per employee, while contractor management costs just NZ$48/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 recognised multi-country payroll provider, but it doesn’t own every legal entity and relies on third-party outsourcing. Remote maintains a 100% owned entity infrastructure and, based on G2 reviews, is rated as a superior multi-country payroll provider to Papaya.
Papaya can serve as an effective global payroll tool, but it lacks the specialist features and support that a full global employment platform like Remote provides. Remote’s ownership of legal entities also improves reliability and consistency across regions.
If you want a dedicated global HR partner rather than only payroll, choose Remote. Remote provides the expertise and resources companies need to expand globally with confidence, including a full HRIS and an integrated job board to source, attract and manage top global talent.
Ready to migrate from Papaya to Remote? You can be set up on Remote within 24 hours. To migrate to Remote, contact our onboarding team and we’ll guide you through every step of the process.
