RemotePass raises $17.4M to scale global payroll and hiring platform

Global employment, payroll, and spend platform RemotePass has raised $17.4 million in Series B funding led by the EBRD Venture Capital (EBRD), with participation from 500 Global and existing investors Oraseya Capital, 212 VC, Access Bridge Ventures, and Khwarizmi Ventures. 

Founded in 2021 by Kamal Reggad and Karim Nadi, RemotePass solves a problem incumbents have largely underserved: hiring, paying, and supporting workers across borders where local entity setup, compliance, and banking infrastructure remain genuinely hard.

The platform serves customers, including Logitech, Tata Group, InDrive and Careem. It covers EOR, contractor management, payroll, and compliance, as well as a fintech layer that provides workers with access to USD accounts, global cards, and health insurance.

The company reached profitability in early 2025.  In late 2025, RemotePass launched SpendCards, embedding corporate expense cards into the same platform that pays the workforce - collapsing payroll, contractor payments, and spend into one system regardless of where a worker sits or how they are employed.

The company has also rolled out AI agents that automate workflows across onboarding, compliance, and support.

Europe and the USA are already two of RemotePass's fastest-growing markets, with companies turning to the platform to onboard, pay, and support workers across geographies where incumbents have limited reach or experience. 

"This round is about acceleration," said Kamal Reggad, CEO and Co-Founder of RemotePass.

"We have the product, the traction, and now the partners to expand properly. Hiring is just the entry point. What companies actually need is a platform that supports their teams end-to-end, including the financial services that make distributed work function."

According to Amine Chabane, Principal, EBRD Venture Capital, RemotePass lowers friction for employers operating across emerging markets while creating real economic opportunity for tens of thousands of workers.

"The business has reached meaningful scale on a fraction of the capital others in the category have raised — a signal of how disciplined Kamal and his team have been with execution.

This is exactly the kind of company we set out to back: a team building a leading platform from an emerging market, with the product depth and commercial momentum to compete in Europe and the US. We look forward to supporting them through the next phase of growth." 

The Series B will fund expansion across Europe and the US, deeper compliance coverage, and continued investment in the financial product surface and AI capabilities that have become defining features of the platform.
