RemotePass, a platform focused on international employment, payroll, and workforce spending management, has raised $17.4 million in Series B financing led by EBRD Venture Capital.
The round also included participation from 500 Global alongside existing investors Oraseya Capital, 212 VC, Access Bridge Ventures, and Khwarizmi Ventures. The funding comes as demand increases for integrated platforms that combine hiring, payroll, compliance, and financial operations for distributed workforces.
What The Company Does
RemotePass provides infrastructure for companies managing international teams across multiple jurisdictions. Its platform enables businesses to hire employees and contractors, process payroll, manage compliance requirements, and handle workforce-related financial operations through a single system.
The company combines employer-of-record (EOR) services, contractor payments, payroll management, and embedded fintech tools aimed at simplifying global workforce administration. Workers using the platform can also access financial products including USD accounts, payment cards, and health insurance services.
In late 2025, RemotePass expanded its product suite with the launch of SpendCards, a feature integrating corporate expense management directly into the payroll and workforce payments infrastructure. The company says this addresses operational inefficiencies created by using separate providers for payroll, contractor management, and business spending.

Market Context / Industry Background
Global workforce management has become increasingly complex as companies expand remote hiring strategies across multiple regions. Businesses are facing growing pressure to manage compliance, payroll, taxation, and employee payments across fragmented legal and financial systems.
At the same time, fintech infrastructure and HR technology are converging, creating demand for unified platforms capable of managing both employment operations and financial services. Companies operating internationally are increasingly seeking providers that can consolidate workforce administration, cross-border payments, and spend management into a single operational layer.
Europe and the United States remain key growth markets for this category, particularly as businesses scale distributed teams beyond traditional outsourcing hubs.
Looking ahead, advancements in AI-driven workforce orchestration and embedded financial services are expected to further accelerate adoption, enabling companies to automate compliance workflows, reduce administrative overhead, and improve visibility over global workforce costs in real time while supporting more flexible and distributed employment models.
Founder / Investor Commentary
CEO and co-founder Kamal Reggad described the new funding as a step toward accelerating international expansion and broadening the platform’s operational capabilities.
“This round is about acceleration,” he said. “We have the product, the traction and now the partners to expand properly.”
Reggad added that hiring alone is no longer the primary challenge for globally distributed companies. Instead, businesses increasingly require integrated systems capable of supporting workforce operations end-to-end, including the financial infrastructure needed to manage international teams efficiently.
Growth Plans / Use Of Funds
The Series B proceeds will be used to deepen RemotePass’s expansion across Europe and the United States, two of its fastest-growing regions. The company also plans to strengthen its compliance infrastructure and continue developing AI-driven automation across onboarding, customer support, and operational workflows.
RemotePass has increasingly integrated AI agents into its platform to reduce manual administrative tasks and improve operational efficiency across compliance and workforce management functions.
Founded in 2021 by Kamal Reggad and Karim Nadi, the company reached profitability in early 2025 before deciding to reinvest in growth. RemotePass now supports more than 35,000 workers across over 150 countries and has processed more than $800 million in cross-border payroll volume.
Its customer base includes companies such as Logitech, Tata Group, InDrive, and Careem.
