Businesses can pay contractor invoices using wire transfer, ACH, SEPA, and credit card. Payments are made directly to contractors' bank accounts through Stripe Connect.

Contractors can receive payments in the same currency for free. However, our payment partner may charge a 1-2% fee for currency conversions. There are no additional fees for receiving payments as a contractor through Remote, and we do not add any service or handling fees.

Yes, you can. Moreover, you can opt to use our contract templates and guides to make sure you comply with local labor laws.

Utilising an independent contractor management service like Remote helps you eliminate repetitive admin tasks, reduce the chance of human error, and concentrate on the most critical aspects of your strategy.

Managing payroll for contractors is a vital feature you should expect from such services, but it’s only one part. Localized contract templates, facilitating international payments, and managing taxes in multiple countries are equally crucial.

Handling these tasks might seem overwhelming, but working with a trusted provider like Remote simplifies the process and minimises risks. This allows you to focus more on your business rather than getting entangled in international labor laws and tax regulations.

Not all solutions are the same, so it’s worth understanding the most valuable elements of contractor management and payroll services. Localized contracts and efficient global payments are just the starting point.

Expert help and advice keep you nimble in making critical decisions. Remote’s guidance aids you in understanding the nuances of onboarding contractors in over 170 countries and provides on-demand visa and immigration support.

Managing payments for contractors, especially international ones, can be resource-intensive. Each new contract increases your workload, making compliance with global regulations difficult for a rapidly growing team. A scalable, precise system is essential to pay independent contractors and ensure contracts meet local labour and tax laws. For example, in the US, the necessary tax forms must be collected and generated automatically.

To handle payments across multiple countries, you need an efficient system to manage various currencies without incurring significant fees. Automating this process can streamline operations and make handling diverse payment terms easier.

We’re glad to have you on board! Whether you’re a current Remote customer or new to the platform, you can easily manage, onboard, and offboard independent contractors across the globe. Remote makes it simple to pay your contractors in their preferred currencies, manage invoices, automate payments, and keep track of essential documentation. You only pay for active contractors on Remote, so if you stop working with a specific contractor for a few months, there’s no need to do anything to save money. Remote automatically detects if your contractors are active and charges you only when you use our services. For more information, see the Remote Fair Price Guarantee.
