About Remote
Remote is a global payroll and Employer of Record platform built around compliance and IP protection, covering 170+ countries, and is officially HMRC-recognised as a UK payroll provider. It runs UK payroll and EOR, with contractor management priced per contractor in USD and EOR priced per employee in USD; native own-entity payroll pricing is quoted. It owns its local entities, offers misclassification protection, immigration support, and contractor-to-employee conversion, and integrates with Xero, QuickBooks and NetSuite. Like Deel, it is priced for international hiring rather than domestic UK payroll.
Remote was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in San Francisco, USA.
