Remote, the global authority in remote employment, today announced a significant expansion of its in-house payroll infrastructure, now supporting over 100 countries. Along with this expansion, Remote introduced new features to simplify international payroll and reduce reliance on fragmented vendor ecosystems.
By integrating payroll, HR, benefits, and compliance into one unified system, Remote enables businesses to scale globally with speed, accuracy, and confidence—offering full visibility and control across their distributed workforce.
Breaking Free from Aggregator Complexity
Traditionally, businesses expanding into new countries depend on payroll aggregators who rely on a chain of third-party providers. This model introduces delays, inaccuracies, and compliance risks that increase operational overhead and damage trust with international employees.
Remote eliminates these bottlenecks by building its own AI-powered, native payroll infrastructure—designed in-house and now live in high-demand hiring regions including Canada and the United Kingdom.
“The outdated, fragmented, and slow approach to multi-country payroll—still the industry standard for most providers—simply doesn’t work for modern, fast-moving companies,” said Job van der Voort, co-founder and CEO of Remote. “When people don’t get paid correctly or on time, it damages your employer brand and signals that your company isn’t ready to operate globally.”
Remote’s infrastructure enables:
-
Instant payroll processing
-
Real-time adaptation to local tax and labor requirements
-
Higher levels of payroll accuracy
-
Full compliance at scale
By owning every layer of the payroll stack, Remote delivers a reliable and responsive payroll experience—supported by local teams with in-country expertise.
Features of Remote’s Native Payroll System
Remote Payroll offers a comprehensive, unified solution for businesses with distributed workforces:
-
Seamless integration with Remote’s full suite—HRIS, Contractor Management, Equity, and Benefits—eliminating the need for multiple vendors
-
Support for salaried employees globally and hourly employees in key markets
-
Embedded Remote Global Benefits platform to manage multi-country benefits plans

A bulk data uploader to streamline employee data transfers and onboarding
This system empowers organizations to operate confidently across borders while ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time—enhancing employer brand and reducing administrative friction.
Reimagining Global Payroll with AI-Powered Control
Remote’s approach represents a new standard in global payroll—prioritizing speed, control, and employee experience. With proprietary calculation engines tailored for local requirements and continuously updated with regulatory changes, businesses gain the tools they need to grow internationally without compromising operational integrity.
“Remote is giving our customers an alternative by building proprietary, AI-powered calculation engines from the ground up—already in use in some of our most popular countries for hiring, with more on the way,” added van der Voort. “We’re enabling instant processing and complete flexibility in how companies pay their teams, while upholding the highest standards of accuracy and compliance.”
