The company covers 150+ countries and describes its offer as one partner for recruiting, employing and incorporating. Alongside EOR it sells global payroll, contractor management, Contractor of Record, US PEO, benefits, visas and recruitment. It reports serving 3,000+ companies.
How does RemotePeople work?
For EOR, the client picks a country and RemotePeople becomes the legal employer. Its timeline describes a compliant contract signed and benefits enrolled by hour 24, and the first day live with payroll, taxes and protections running by hour 48.
Recruitment follows a similar pattern. Clients brief the team on role, location and budget, in-country recruiters screen candidates, and a shortlist arrives within days. The chosen hire can then be onboarded through the EOR. Payroll customers connect countries, upload employee data and have local experts validate tax codes.

Contractor tools include Contractor of Record, where RemotePeople absorbs misclassification risk, and contractor management with payments in 120+ currencies and auto-localized contracts.
