Remofirst API
RemoFirst is a global HR and payroll platform that lets companies employ full-time staff and pay contractors across 185+ countries without setting up local entities, spanning Employer of Record, global payroll, benefits, and visas. An unofficial API lets you programmatically pull employees, contractors, payroll runs, invoices, benefits, and compliance records—and push updates like new hires, contractor onboarding, and payment approvals back into RemoFirst.
What is Remofirst?
RemoFirst is a global HR and payroll platform that enables companies to employ full-time staff and engage contractors across 185+ countries without establishing local entities. Customers use RemoFirst to onboard international employees through its Employer of Record service, run global payroll in local currencies, pay contractors in 150+ countries, provide health coverage through RemoHealth, secure visas and work permits, and run background checks—all from a single workforce-management dashboard.
Core product areas include:
- Employer of Record (compliant full-time employment across 185+ countries without local entities)
- Global Payroll (multi-currency payroll processing and tax management across regions)
- International Contractors (onboarding and payments for contractors in 150+ countries)
- RemoHealth (global health insurance coverage for employees)
- Visas & Work Permits (visa and work-permit acquisition across 110+ countries)
- Workforce Management and Background Checks (HR administration and global employment verification)
Common data entities:
- Employees, Contractors, Employment Agreements, Onboarding Records
- Payroll Runs, Payslips, Compensation, Tax Withholdings
- Invoices, Payments, Expenses, Direct Debit Mandates
- Benefits, RemoHealth Enrollments, Time Off, Timesheets
- Visas, Work Permits, Background Checks, Compliance Documents
The Remofirst Integration Challenge
Teams run mission-critical global hiring and payroll on RemoFirst, but turning a dashboard-driven workflow into API-driven automation is non-trivial:
- No public developer API: RemoFirst exposes a handful of pre-built HRIS connectors (BambooHR, ADP Workforce Now, GoCardless) but no documented REST endpoints or self-serve developer portal
- Partnership-gated integrations: New connections route through RemoFirst's partner team rather than a public API key flow, adding lead time before access
- Multi-country data spread: Employment terms, payroll cycles, tax rules, and statutory benefits vary by country—generic integrations break across jurisdictions
- EOR vs. contractor object models: Full-time employees and international contractors carry different lifecycle states, documents, and payment flows
- Authentication and session handling: Dashboard logins, SSO, and MFA complicate headless, scheduled automation
- Compliance-sensitive records: Payroll, visa, and background-check data require careful, auditable handling across regions
How Supergood Creates Remofirst APIs
Supergood reverse-engineers RemoFirst's authenticated dashboard flows and integration surfaces to deliver a resilient API layer for your account—covering employees, contractors, payroll, benefits, and compliance entities across every country you operate in.
- Handles username/password, SSO, and MFA (SMS, email, TOTP) securely
- Maintains session continuity with automated refresh and change detection
- Normalizes responses across employees, contractors, payroll runs, invoices, and benefits so you integrate once and rely on consistent objects
- Aligns with country-specific employment terms, payroll cycles, and statutory rules to keep access compliant
