Join the customers who rely on Remote to transform their business.
“We regard Remote as a leading, trusted partner in this field. The expert support they offer in local payroll, tax compliance, and HR operations has streamlined our workflows and unlocked greater opportunities for growth and success on a global scale.”
Were we to manage and coordinate everything in-house, it would cost us well over $500,000 USD more each year. Remote not only removes that financial strain but also lifts the operational burden from our team, allowing us to focus on growing the business with confidence and efficiency.
“Payroll is processed monthly, twice-monthly and hourly across multiple currencies worldwide, and our Finance Manager has complete visibility from a single consolidated platform. With Remote, this becomes possible.”
“We engage 460+ Contractors worldwide. Otherwise, I would have to take on five to six full-time staff to handle compliance, administration and payroll. Remote has unquestionably saved us both time and money.”

Papaya has a strong track record in international payroll but lacks the physical presence and specialist know‑how of widely distributed local experts. With Remote, you get fast, reliable support coupled with deep knowledge of international markets.
Specialist 24/7 support at no extra cost, on any pricing plan
Industry‑leading expertise delivered by authentic local experts
A personalised, human onboarding experience
Papaya may perform well at payroll processing, but the complexities of global employment demand more than a reliable payment provider.
With payroll as Papaya’s primary focus, its EOR and contractor management offerings are comparatively less developed.
At Remote, we understand that a flexible Employer of Record (EOR) and robust Contractor Management are as crucial to international growth as an effective payroll system. And we have the dedicated, in‑house expertise and resources to match our industry‑leading global employment solutions.
When you choose Remote, you are not merely contracting a service provider — you are investing in a partnership.
Papaya is a specialist global payroll software provider, while Remote is a full global employment solution offering HR and recruitment tools Papaya does not provide. Papaya depends on third‑party partners for payroll, benefits and tax administration, whereas Remote owns legal entities in each country of operation, delivering greater control and compliance.
Remote’s Employer of Record (EOR) service is priced at S$940/month per employee, while contractor management costs just S$39/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 multinational payroll provider, but it does not own and manage all legal entities, instead relying on third‑party outsourcing. Remote operates a 100% owned entity infrastructure and, according to G2 reviews, is rated as a superior multi‑country payroll provider to Papaya.
Papaya may be adequate for global payroll, but it lacks the dedicated features and specialist support of a comprehensive 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, choose Remote. Remote has the expertise and resources organisations need to expand globally with confidence, including a comprehensive HRIS and a fully integrated job board to help you source, attract and manage top global talent.
