This is what paying contractors actually looks like.
Hours live in one tool. Invoices arrive over email and Slack. Payments go out one by one. Every pay cycle starts with a manual reconciliation across systems that do not talk to each other.
Your data lives in different places
Your time tracker knows the hours. Your inbox has the invoices. Slack has the Google Doc links. WhatsApp has the bank details. Every pay cycle starts with a scavenger hunt: export a CSV, chase a missing invoice, copy numbers into a spreadsheet. One transposed number means overpaying someone, and you catch it a week later when they message you.
Payments sent one by one
Wise, Payoneer, or direct bank transfer. You open each platform separately, enter amounts, convert currencies manually, and send. Then do it again for the next contractor. A team of eight means eight separate payment sessions, eight confirmation screenshots, and eight line items entered into accounting by hand.
Reconciliation falls on you
After payments are sent, you build a record for accounting manually. There is no automatic log. There is no one-click export. There is a spreadsheet that is always slightly wrong. Your accountant asks for a clean summary. You spend 45 minutes building it from payment confirmations and Slack messages.
At 3 or more contractors, this stops being manageable.
Remi replaces that entire workflow with one pay run.
How it works.
Set up once. Run contractor pay cycles in minutes.
- 1
Add your contractors
Store each contractor's payout method, rate, and preferred currency. Remi supports Wise and Payoneer. Contractors keep using whichever they already have. No new accounts required on their end.
- 2
Review and fund
At the end of each pay cycle, Remi calculates what everyone is owed based on tracked hours, milestones, or recurring amounts. You see one summary: every contractor, every amount, converted to your currency. Approve the total and all payments go out simultaneously.
- 3
Track spend
Every pay run is logged automatically with contractor, amount, currency, and date. Filter by contractor, project, or date range. Export a clean CSV for accounting in one click. The record builds itself as you pay.
For contractors
Built around how your contractors already get paid.
Contractors get paid through the rails they already use. Wise, Payoneer, PayPal, or bank transfer. Quick to set up, easy to keep using.
Two-minute onboarding
Contractors get an invite email, pick how they want to be paid (Wise, Payoneer, PayPal, or bank transfer), and they are set. No long forms, no document uploads, no week-long verification queue. Most contractors finish in under two minutes.
Paid in their currency
Remi handles conversion automatically based on each contractor's preferences. Contractors receive the amount they expect, in the currency they expect, to the account they already use. No surprises, no rounding discrepancies, no confusion about exchange rates.
Email updates at every step
Three emails per payment: queued, sent, and delivered. Each one includes the amount, currency, and method. Contractors can also check the portal anytime to see history. No 'did my payment land?' messages for you to field.
Minimal lift for your contractors. For you, it replaces three tools and a spreadsheet.
Global coverage
Pay contractors in 145+ countries.
Remi reaches more countries than Deel. Payments go through Wise and Payoneer, the same infrastructure your contractors already use, wherever they are in the world.
Whether your team is in Lagos, Lisbon, Manila, or Montreal, Remi handles currency conversion, routing, and delivery confirmation automatically. You pay in your currency. They receive in theirs. No manual conversion tables. No country-specific setup. Add a contractor in any supported country and pay them in the next cycle.
You've outgrown spreadsheets, but don't need Deel.
There are three ways most small teams handle contractor payments today. Spreadsheets and Wise are free and work until you have three contractors. After that, the manual reconciliation, one-by-one payments, and missing invoices start costing real time. Deel is built for HR teams managing employees across legal entities. It costs $49 per contractor per month and takes weeks to implement. Remi is the layer in between: built specifically for contractor payments, globally capable, and priced for teams that do not need an HR platform.
| Remi | Deel | Spreadsheets + Wise | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Built for | Founders with 1 to 20 contractors | HR and finance teams | DIY setups |
| Monthly cost | $29 and up | $49 per contractor and up | $0 |
| Setup time | 10 minutes | Days to weeks | None |
| Payment workflow | One pay run, one approval, all contractors at once | Multi step | Manual, one by one |
| Payment types | Hourly, milestones, recurring in the same run | Supported but complex | Tracked manually |
| Single-platform payments | Yes | Supported but complex | No |
| Notifications | WhatsApp and SMS | No | No |
| Reporting | Automatic. One-click CSV export | Available but complex | Manual |
| Compliance support | Not included (Remi is for payments) | Full compliance and entity management | None |
| Best for | Small global teams | Larger teams needing HR and compliance | 1 to 2 contractors |
If you need compliance support, legal entities, or employee benefits administration, Deel is the right tool. Remi is built for contractor payments specifically. Remi tells you when you have outgrown it.
Payments delivered through infrastructure contractors already trust.
Remi does not reinvent payments. Remi connects to the rails your contractors already use, at the same rates they expect, to the same accounts they have always used.
Payment data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard TLS and AES-256 encryption. Remi never stores card numbers or bank account details on its own servers. Contractor payment information is held directly by the payment provider and accessed only at the moment of transfer.
First 30 days free
One flat fee. No per-contractor charges.
Remi charges a flat monthly fee regardless of how many pay runs you send or how many payments you make. At $29 per month for up to 5 contractors, Remi costs less for 5 contractors than Deel costs for 1. The math gets better as your team grows.

You have been meaning to fix this for months.
The contractor payment workflow is one of those things that is never quite bad enough to prioritize. Until you make an error. Until you pay someone late. Until you spend a Friday afternoon reconciling invoices instead of building your product.
Remi takes 10 minutes to set up. Your first pay run goes out the same day. No credit card required to start. Cancel from your dashboard in one click if it is not right.
