What G2 badges are, and how they are earned
G2 is a software marketplace and peer-review platform that publishes ranked reports each quarter, based on verified customer reviews and market presence. Grid® Reports produce Leader and High Performer placements. Index reports produce the category badges: Usability, Results, Relationship and Implementation.
Badges are not for sale, and vendors have no input into the outcome. Regional Grid® Reports draw only on reviews from customers based in that region, which is why regional placement says something a global score cannot.

What the G2 results mean for global teams
The badges map onto three different buying questions.
- For People teams: recognition for Easiest Admin in HR Compliance, Best Usability across three categories, and Best Support in Contractor of Record, highlighting how day-to-day tasks become easier with RemotePass.
- For Finance teams: Best Estimated ROI in two segments, Best Results across three categories, and implementation badges in Contractor of Record and Contractor Payments — getting up and running, and seeing results, without a long ramp.
- For companies expanding into new markets: Leader badges across payroll, contractor management and payments, plus Regional Leader placement in eight regions. These cover international contractor payments and employing people without a local entity, spanning the markets where global hiring is concentrated.
Five G2 leader badges across global payroll, contractor management and contractor payments
Three categories, five Grid® Reports, one platform.
RemotePass earned Leader placement on five Fall 2026 Grid® Reports:
- Grid® Report for Global Payroll
- Grid® Report for Contractor Management
- Grid® Report for Contractor Payments
- Small-Business Grid® Report for Contractor Payments
- Mid-Market Grid® Report for Contractor Payments
Leader placement on five separate Grid® Reports provides third-party validation across three distinct parts of the global workforce lifecycle, and across company sizes from small business through mid-market. Contractor Payments accounts for three of the five, which means the result holds at the overall level and in both segment-level reports rather than resting on one company size.
For teams paying team members in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines and Colombia on one platform, that can mean less time chasing payment confirmations and reconciling fragmented workflows.
G2 regional leader for contractor payments in eight regions
Local rails, local rules, judged locally.
RemotePass is a Fall 2026 Regional Leader in the Middle East, Middle East & Africa, EMEA, Europe, Asia, Asia Pacific, India and the Americas, across the Contractor Payments and Global Payroll Regional Grid® Reports.
Regional leadership on G2 is not a proxy score derived from a global rating: each regional grid draws only on reviews from customers based in that region. Contractor payments is where the coverage runs widest, which follows, since payout timelines, banking rules, currency handling and documentation requirements differ in every one of those eight regions. See country-specific payroll and contractor guides.
“We’ve had zero contractor turnover since we started with RemotePass. The turnover was so high before because of the USD payment issue. RemotePass was a gateway to fix this pain point.” Hany Radwan, Director of People & Culture, Money Fellows (fintech, 50–200 people, Egypt / MENA) · Read the customer story
Best usability in global payroll, contractor payments and contractor of record
Rated by the people who use the platform, not the ones who sat through the demo.
RemotePass won Best Usability on three separate Fall 2026 Usability Indexes: Global Payroll, Contractor Payments and Contractor of Record.
Usability scores reflect feedback from people using the product in real-world workflows: processing a payment batch, checking a team member’s status, approving an expense claim. Three wins means that holds across three different jobs.
“We decided on RemotePass because it was simpler. The process, the experience in the dashboard, it seemed simple. With others, I felt it was a bit more complex. You have to click in so many places to do one thing.” Rita Mendes, Head of People, Alts Digital (digital marketing, 50–200 people, EU / MENA) · Read the customer story
Best support in contractor of record, and easiest to do business with in EOR and HR compliance
Two badges from the index that measures the relationship, not the product.
RemotePass won Best Support on the Fall 2026 Mid-Market Relationship Index for Contractor of Record, and Easiest to Do Business With on the Relationship Indexes for both HR Compliance and Employer of Record.
Relationship Index scores capture customer perceptions of support quality and how easy a provider is to deal with. That matters most in COR and EOR, where a contract question or a filing deadline cannot wait until Monday.
“We know we have a trusted partner. It’s not just a service you pay for. I consider our CSM, Souha, part of our extended team. It feels like the service is a lot more than just a platform.” Mincho Donev, Director of People and Culture, Chaos (software, 50–200 people, EU / MENA) · Read the customer story
Five G2 badges in contractor of record
RemotePass’s widest category result this quarter.
Contractor of Record earned RemotePass five Fall 2026 badges: Best Results, Best Usability, Best Estimated ROI (Mid-Market), Best Implementation and Best Support (Mid-Market).
COR is what teams turn to when contractor engagement needs specialist attention: a long-running contractor relationship in a market with specific rules about how it should be structured. Classification expertise and proactive compliance guidance matter more there than platform features, which is why five badges spanning results, usability, ROI, implementation and support is a more useful signal than any one of them. More on worker classification and contractor compliance.
“RemotePass had a whole suite of offerings nobody else offered, plus you’re subject matter experts in countries where we don’t have expertise. It was a no-brainer.” Valmont (retail, 10,000+ people, global) · Read the customer story
Easiest admin in HR compliance, and best estimated ROI in two segments
The administrative load and the business case.
RemotePass won Easiest Admin on the Fall 2026 Usability Index for HR Compliance, and Best Estimated ROI on both the Mid-Market Results Index for Contractor of Record and the Small-Business Results Index for Contractor Payments.
Staying compliant across multiple countries means documentation, checks, and a lot that can quietly go wrong between them. Teams rating RemotePass on Easiest Admin are reporting less of that assembled by hand.
Winning estimated ROI in both segments indicates customers see strong value relative to what the platform costs. For finance and people teams that matters, because the business case for global workforce infrastructure has to extend beyond functionality alone. See pricing.
Best implementation in contractor of record, fastest implementation in contractor payments
A shorter gap between signing and going live.
RemotePass won Best Implementation on the Fall 2026 Implementation Index for Contractor of Record, and Fastest Implementation on the Small-Business Implementation Index for Contractor Payments.
The Implementation Index recognition indicates that customers rate RemotePass strongly on implementation speed and ease. That matters when team members are waiting to be paid.
“The support team at RemotePass is incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful. Onboarding new people onto their platform is a breeze, making the process seamless and efficient.” Wendy Sfeir, Head of People and Talent, Lean (fintech, 50–200 people, UAE / KSA / MENA) · Read the customer story
Most likely to recommend in global payroll, and best results across three categories
Word of mouth, made measurable.
RemotePass won Most Likely to Recommend on the Fall 2026 Results Index for Global Payroll, and Best Results on the Results Indexes for Contractor Payments, Contractor Management and Contractor of Record.
Word of mouth in HR and finance tooling is unforgiving, because the cost of a bad recommendation is somebody’s salary arriving late. These badges mean customers are putting their name to it.
Easiest to do business with in Employer of Record
Employ in a new market without the six-month legal project.
RemotePass won Easiest to Do Business With on the Fall 2026 Relationship Index for Employer of Record.
Employing someone in a new market used to start with months of legal groundwork and entity setup. EOR removes that step, and the Regional Leader placements covering the Americas, Europe and India alongside the Middle East, Asia and Asia Pacific span the markets where growth-stage companies are expanding.
“It was not possible to have our workers as contractors. That’s where RemotePass comes in super handy. For us, it makes more sense than establishing an entity. For the employees, it makes sense because they have their health insurance, social security and all the standard benefits.” Mincho Donev, Director of People and Culture, Chaos (software, 50–200 people, EU / MENA) · Read the customer story
