What a hire costs through RemoFirst
Using the currently modelled provider-cost basis, RemoFirst costs $200/month less than the lowest-cost alternative, Pebl, at $8,130/month ($2,400/year difference).
Uses the same calculation engine as the main calculator: converted base salary, United Kingdom statutory employer costs, the provider fee, and amortised one-time fees. Provider-specific currency-conversion cost is excluded rather than estimated, and stated separately in this provider’s fees and terms; conditional charges are excluded too.
Where RemoFirst operates
RemoFirst publishes hiring coverage in 125 countries across 4 regions. Countries not listed here are not published as supported; confirm directly with the provider.
Source: RemoFirst's own country pages (checked 2026-09-05).
Linked countries have a full employer cost breakdown on EOR Lens; the rest are published by the provider but not yet modelled here.
RemoFirst contractor pricing
Engaging someone as a contractor rather than employing them through an EOR is a different product with different pricing and different risk. This is what RemoFirst publishes for contractors.
- Premium Contractors
- $25 per contractor per month
Contractor management itself is free; the $25 tier adds invoicing and payment processing. No minimum contractor count.
Source: Free to manage contractors and $25 per contractor, per month to process payments.
www.remofirst.com, checked 2026-09-05.
Contractor fees exclude currency conversion and payment costs, which are charged separately by most providers. Misclassifying an employee as a contractor carries back-tax and penalty risk that dwarfs the monthly fee. Compare every published contractor price on the contractor pricing page.

RemoFirst vs alternatives
Figures without a label are published by the provider. Anything marked an EOR Lens assumption is our own comparison figure, not a provider statement. "Not publicly disclosed" means the provider does not state it publicly, which is not the same as the answer being unfavourable.

Pricing transparency: what RemoFirst publishes
RemoFirst publishes 5 of 8 facts we check on every provider. Each published fact below carries a quote, a source link and the date we checked it.
FX markup
Not publicly disclosed; confirm with providerNo FX margin published. EOR Lens no longer models a currency-conversion percentage, so conversion cost is excluded from the totals shown.
Security deposit / pre-funding
Not publicly disclosed; confirm with providerNo deposit policy published; EOR Lens models one month as an assumption.
Offboarding fee
None“we do not charge any set up fees or termination fees”
Provider-wide and unconditional. Re-verified 15 Sep 2026 on the provider FAQ, which names termination fees explicitly. Statutory severance and notice remain payable under local law and are not a provider fee.
Source · checked 2026-09-15
Minimum contract term
None (month-to-month)“No minimum contract terms or number of employees; no fixed term contracts”
Provider-wide. Re-verified 15 Sep 2026 on the pricing page and corroborated by the provider FAQ ("no fixed term contracts"). Monthly invoicing is a billing cadence and is recorded separately from the commitment.

RemoFirst publishes $199/employee/month. The verified monthly cost also includes the employee's gross salary, statutory employer costs in the hire country and any amortised one-time fees. Currency-conversion cost is excluded, since it is not comparably published across the providers we track. Use the cost checker on this page for a specific country and salary.
RemoFirst publishes EOR coverage in 125 markets, listed in full on this page. Countries outside that list are not published as supported.
On published headline fees, RemoFirst is at or below every provider we compare it with. Total cost still depends on the hire country and salary.
RemoFirst does not publish a currency conversion margin. Our comparison therefore excludes any currency-conversion cost rather than assuming one, so the totals we show are verified costs before FX. This is not published by the provider, so confirm it in writing before you sign.
RemoFirst does not publish a deposit or pre-funding policy. Our model assumes one month of total employment cost is held up front, which is an EOR Lens estimate. This is not published by the provider, so confirm it in writing before you sign.
RemoFirst operates through a partner network rather than owned entities in most markets.
RemoFirst does not publish an immigration or visa support offering. This is not published by the provider, so confirm it in writing before you sign.
Yes. RemoFirst lists contractor management at $25/contractor/month.
Shor, Pebl, Playroll, Multiplier are the closest alternatives on published pricing and coverage. Which one is cheapest depends entirely on the hire country, so run the same salary through the calculator to see.
