Workday and Remote are redefining how global payroll works

We’ve got super exciting news! Through an expanded partnership with Remote, Workday has launched Workday GO Global Payroll, a brand new part of the Workday GO offering. Now it’s easier than ever for customers of Workday GO to pay their teams anywhere in the world without leaving their Workday workflows.

This launch marks a major leap forward in how growing companies manage global teams. By bringing global payroll into the same seamless and automated experience that Workday GO already delivers for HR and finance, Workday and Remote are giving businesses the simplicity, speed, and peace of mind to manage a distributed workforce in one place.

A partnership to support today's borderless workforce

Midsize organizations are expanding faster than ever. They are hiring beyond borders earlier in their growth journey, and rely on technology that simplifies complexity, automates work, and scales effortlessly as they grow.

According to Remote’s Global Workforce Report, the average company now employs talent in at least three countries. These teams need HR and payroll software that move at their pace: unified, easy-to-use, and built for a distributed, AI-powered future of work.

To deliver that experience globally, Workday sought a partner with the scale, compliance expertise, and infrastructure to make global payroll feel fully integrated from day one.

Remote Embedded was built for exactly that.

Our infrastructure lets platforms embed global payroll without rebuilding compliance or rethinking architecture. Workday partnered with Remote because of our:

• Leading AI-native technology that is built in-house, not bought

• Compliance-first operations with in-country expertise and ownership instead of outsourced layers

• Proven embedded partnerships that combine deep integration with the go-to-market support partners need to win

Together, this partnership delivers one powerful outcome: a unified global payroll experience directly in Workday.

One platform. Every team. Everywhere.

For Workday GO customers, Workday GO Global Payroll is one system for people, pay, and compliance, designed to simplify operations and give teams confidence as they scale.

For Workday, it expands their position as the enterprise AI platform for managing people, money, and agents.

For Remote, it cements our role as the infrastructure shaping the future of global work, helping leading HR platforms move faster and scale globally with confidence.

“We worked closely with the Workday team to make global payroll feel like a natural extension of their platform,” said Pim Altena, GM of Remote Embedded. “This reflects our shared vision to make paying teams anywhere in the world simple and compliant.”

Built for what's next

The launch of Workday GO Global Payroll reflects a major shift in the industry:

• HR and payroll are becoming one connected experience.

• Payroll now means global payroll.

• The platforms leading the next wave of work are embedding these capabilities, not adding them later.

Workday GO shows what that future looks like: simple, unified, and built in from the start.

The future of global payroll

At Remote, we are building the infrastructure that makes this future possible for every platform.

The future of payroll is not bolted on. It is built in. Check out Remote Embedded.
