Is the Remote Equity fee still charged if I use Carta or Pulley?

Yes. The Remote Equity EOR fee applies to all EOR employees receiving equity, regardless of whether you also use Carta, Pulley, or another cap table management platform.

Why the fee still applies

Carta and Pulley are cap table management tools — they track ownership and handle grant administration. They do not cover tax compliance or employer reporting obligations.

As your Employer of Record, Remote is legally responsible for reporting equity-related taxable events to local tax authorities, withholding the correct taxes, and fulfilling compliance obligations in each country where your employees are based. Only a local employer (Remote) can perform these mandatory local filings — your company cannot do this without a local entity.

How the two work together

Remote Equity and cap table platforms are complementary: Carta or Pulley manage your equity records, while Remote Equity ensures you remain compliant with local tax and reporting obligations. If you connect your cap table to Remote Equity, grant and exercise information syncs automatically — no duplicate data entry needed.
