RemotePeople at a glance
I’d consider RemotePeople when you have a role to fill and may need help finding the person. It combines candidate search with EOR employment, and you can buy either service separately.
I’d put RemotePeople on the shortlist when you need an employment service and may also need help finding the candidate.
My view
EOR Global · per employee/month
Check that your role and work location are accepted, and identify the legal employer in the proposal.
per employee/month; for qualifying countries and salary ranges. Your proposal confirms eligibility and billing terms.
The country and service determine which company can employ your worker. RemotePeople identifies the employing entity before the hire.
The service fee excludes salary, employer contributions and benefits. Under the standard terms, an employment deposit is due before the employee receives the contract for signature. I’d plan for that payment separately from the first payroll.
Check before signing: If your offer includes a deposit waiver, make sure it names your plan, hiring country and eligible headcount.

Company background
RemotePeople was founded in November 2018 by co-founders Antoine Boquen, its CEO, and Pierre Pradier, its Chief Marketing & Innovation Officer. It is headquartered in New York, with an Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore. EOR is its core service, supported by recruitment and company incorporation.
Where RemotePeople stands out
EOR Global pricing
From $499
per employee/month
EOR Select starts at US$199 for qualifying countries and salary ranges. Your proposal confirms eligibility and billing terms.
Recruitment when you need it
Its recruitment team can source candidates and coordinate their move into EOR employment. You can also bring your own candidate and buy employment support separately.
A named account manager
Both EOR plans include an account manager, with HR and legal specialists supporting employment questions. Additional legal or immigration work has its own agreed scope.
HR requests in plain English
Command Centre lets you request leave, expenses and employment changes in ordinary language. You confirm the summary; sensitive actions go to the team for review.
150+ advertised EOR countries
RemotePeople advertises employment support across 150+ countries. Check that your role and work location are accepted, and identify the legal employer in the proposal.
A route to your own entity
A separate incorporation service can run alongside EOR and support a later employee transfer. Agree the setup costs, transfer steps and payroll timing before committing.

Services
RemotePeople’s EOR service covers local employment contracts, payroll and tax administration, statutory benefits administration and ongoing employment support. Its wider offer also includes recruitment, payroll for your own entities and contractor services.
EOR, payroll for your own employees and contractor engagement are different purchases. Candidate sourcing can be bought alone or with EOR and is priced separately.
Coverage
RemotePeople advertises EOR services in more than 150 countries. Its company information says the available service and employing entity depend on the country and are confirmed before the hire. The client directs daily work; the EOR arrangement covers local employment administration.
Employing entity
I’d ask for the registered name of the employer in the country proposal. Match it to the company signing the employment contract and issuing payslips. If a local partner employs the worker, agree who handles a missed payment or a contract correction.
Employment agreement
Named legal employer, registered details, work location, duties, contract type and signatories.
Management
Who at your company approves pay changes, leave, expenses and performance decisions.
Payroll and benefits
Local payroll operator, pay frequency, funded amount, benefit eligibility and escalation contact.
Changes and exit
Who issues amendments, handles final pay and supplies the employee’s records.
Keep service coverage separate from employer ownership and from contractor-payment reach.

Recruitment has its own fee basis
Recruitment and employment are separate charges, even when you buy them together. Use the recruitment cards to compare the fee basis, then request a complete hiring proposal.
I’d want the proposal to specify the salary base, total recruitment fee, payment dates, replacement terms, early-departure treatment and any unpaid balance. Keep those charges separate from the EOR fee, salary and employer costs.
Employment spending
Gross salary, employer costs, benefits and any agreed extras, by employee and currency.
Cash required before payroll
Deposit, prefunding, payment deadline and the event that triggers any refund.
Currency and payment route
Billing currency, exchange-rate basis, bank charges and payment-reference requirements.

RemotePeople’s EOR deposit and refund terms
RemotePeople’s standard employment deposit is due before the employee receives the contract for signature. Its billing policy uses one month of the employee’s gross salary as the starting point. Your proposal sets the amount, and it can rise if pay, seniority or notice obligations increase. The deposit debit note is due within five calendar days of receipt. Budget for it separately from payroll and service fees.
RemotePeople refunds the unused balance within 5 days of the final payment to the employee, once payroll is confirmed and all matters and invoices relating to termination are settled. A deferred bonus or severance payment can put that date well after the last working day. Under its general terms, RemotePeople pools deposits across employees and countries. It can apply the pool to other unpaid obligations and require a top-up within two business days of a written demand. An invoice more than 60 calendar days overdue can trigger forfeiture of the balance left after those deductions.
RemotePeople also describes a no-deposit EOR Plus offer for teams of five or more paying annually. Its Global and Select pricing leaves deposit terms to the proposal. If you expect a waiver, have it written into the offer for your plan and hiring country.
Country-specific fees and terms apply.

Best For
I’d put RemotePeople on the shortlist when you need an employment service and may also need help finding the candidate.
You already have a candidate
Request a country-specific EOR quote, confirm Select eligibility and agree the first-payroll calendar.
You’re still recruiting
Request both the search scope and employment scope; identify the handover owner when the candidate accepts.
Your headcount is stable
Compare a full year of quoted fees and employment costs. Confirm any minimum commitment, headcount-change terms and deposit refund conditions.
You need a specific integration
Check whether the quoted plan can transfer the payroll fields your finance team needs.
Plan your next step
Is RemotePeople right for your hire?
Answer a few questions to see which service to compare and what to ask for in your proposal.
Before a quote
Ask for the employing entity, full country cost and a realistic start date. Confirm the quoted plan’s deposit and refund terms, benefits, currency conversion and offboarding charges. Salary and employer costs are additional to the service fee.
Alternatives to compare
I’d give each alternative the same country, employee profile and required workflow. Headline fees are not comparable when one proposal includes candidate sourcing or benefits that the other excludes.

Integrations
RemotePeople documents HRIS connections for BambooHR, HiBob, Personio, Dayforce and Workday. Its help guide describes importing new-hire details, pre-filling onboarding forms, matching employees by email and syncing essential employee data daily. Approved or cancelled leave requests can also move into the platform. An administrator enables the connection under Settings → Integrations; access may need to be requested from support. I’d ask RemotePeople to demonstrate your required fields and the handling of later changes. Manual edits override imported information, so agree which system owns each record before relying on automatic updates.
Ask for a plan-level demo
RemotePeople’s enterprise page advertises more than 70 integrations, names Workday, SAP SuccessFactors and Oracle HCM, and describes an API and custom BI exports. The page does not specify which integrations are included with EOR Global or Select, which fields transfer, how often data syncs or what costs extra.

Platform & Process
The portal documentation covers employee records, payroll reports, invoices, leave, expenses, contract changes and offboarding. The invoice guide explains how to export payroll reports as CSV files.
RemotePeople employer portal, shown in provider documentation.
Expense and leave requests
For expenses, an employee creates a report, selects the currency and category, attaches receipts, then saves or submits it for approval. Several expenses can share one report.
RemotePeople’s expense-report form, shown in its help documentation.
The leave guide applies to EOR and Global Payroll employees. It describes selecting dates and leave type, adding supporting documents when relevant, then submitting for approval. It also instructs employees to submit sick leave through the platform on the first day. Leave entitlements still depend on local law.
RemotePeople’s employee leave-request form. Provider documentation image, included as a workflow example.
Onboarding & support
Start dates and payroll deadlines
RemotePeople’s process FAQ says some hires can start within 48 hours after paperwork is agreed, while registrations, visas or notice requirements can extend the timetable. Work permission and the first payday can fall later than the 48-hour figure.
Its getting-started guide describes account setup after the service agreement, an initial administrator invitation, and separate onboarding, ongoing-support and offboarding specialists. Assign your internal approver and finance contact before handing over the employee file.
Separate payroll and invoice dates
The invoice guide gives a general payroll-change cutoff of the 15th, moved to the previous Friday when it falls on a weekend. It covers contract amendments, expenses and variable income. It also describes later invoice adjustments and says the usual payment deadline is the 20th or closest working day, unless the service agreement says otherwise. Check the due date on the actual invoice.
The Swiss expense article says reports with receipts should arrive by the 5th for the same payroll cycle; the general invoice guide describes a later 15th deadline. For a Swiss hire, have the account team state which step each deadline governs and what happens after it.
The invoice guide separately describes Philippine pay on the 15th and 30th, and biweekly US/Canadian payroll with invoices typically around mid-month. Plan funding from the country pay schedule.

The support article qualifies these timings for complexity, local requirements and third-party dependencies. Its 24/7 availability statement applies to the AI assistant only. For a missed payroll or urgent employee issue, I’d record the human escalation path and relevant country deadline.
Contract Terms
I’d check the proposal for your billing commitment and exit charges, then plan employee offboarding as a separate process. RemotePeople asks clients to submit an offboarding request before discussing termination with the employee and allow at least five working days for review. That is an internal processing requirement; local law and the employment contract determine the employee’s notice and entitlements. Its fixed-term non-renewal process asks for at least 30 days’ advance notice, or longer where required locally. Obtain the feasible end date, final-pay calculation and any remaining service fees before committing to a departure date.
Confirm the exit terms
RemotePeople’s invoice guide says employer contributions are generally billed in arrears, so a final-month liability may appear in the following month. Match the final payroll, subscription balance, benefits closure and deposit settlement before considering the account closed.
Obtain an itemised exit statement for the employee and the purchased plan. Moving an employee to another employer also requires a documented handover.
Leaving or changing the service
Client notice, employee obligations, remaining subscription balance and settlement timing.

FAQ
How much does RemotePeople cost?
EOR Global starts at US$499 per employee per month. EOR Select starts at US$199 per employee per month for selected countries and qualifying salary ranges. EOR Switch uses custom pricing. These are service fees; salary, employer contributions, benefits and agreed extras are additional. Confirm the final country rate, billing commitment, minimums and deposit in your proposal. Recruitment is separately priced. The published Recruit + EOR recruitment fee is 2% of annual salary per month for twelve months, totaling 24%; confirm the payment and early-departure terms in your proposal.
Is recruitment included in the EOR fee?
No. Recruitment is optional, can be bought alone or with EOR, and is priced separately. Have the proposal separate sourcing, employment administration and employment costs; the specialist pages give recruitment its own fee basis.
Does RemotePeople require an upfront deposit?
Under RemotePeople’s standard EOR terms, yes. Its billing policy uses one month of the employee’s gross salary as the starting point, payable before the employee receives the contract for signature. Your proposal sets the actual amount and any waiver. The separately advertised annual EOR Plus offer for five or more employees waives the deposit if your proposal includes that offer.
Pay the deposit separately from payroll and the service fee. RemotePeople returns the unused balance within 5 days of the final employee payment once payroll is confirmed and all termination-related matters and invoices are settled. Deposits are pooled across engagements, so unpaid obligations elsewhere on the account can reduce the balance returned.
Can finance export payroll data?
Yes. The Payroll Report module exports CSV files. Check that employee identifiers, currencies and cost centres match your finance records. If you need a direct accounting connection, ask RemotePeople whether your quoted plan supports it. If it does, request a demonstration of the connector and fields, and confirm any extra charge.
Is RemotePeople support available 24/7?
The AI assistant is available 24/7. Human-support response and resolution targets use business days and can vary with complexity, local requirements and third-party dependencies. Agree the human escalation path for an urgent payroll or country-specific employment issue.
Can I use one payroll-change deadline for every country?
Use the schedule for the employment arrangement. The general invoice guidance and Swiss expense procedure describe different dates and may address different stages. Have the account team identify the submission, approval, funding and payday deadlines for each hire.
Verdict
If you already have a candidate, I’d evaluate RemotePeople as an employment service. If the search is still open, I’d compare the combined engagement with buying recruitment and EOR separately.
See how RemotePeople compares with the nine other providers in the ranking of the 10 best EOR services.
Check whether your proposed hire qualifies for EOR Select before using US$199 in a budget. Otherwise, use the EOR Global starting fee of US$499 as an initial benchmark and request a country-specific quote.
