2. What is Revolut GlobalHire?
Revolut GlobalHire is a software platform offered by Revolut enabling businesses (“Business User”) to hire and manage a global workforce through an Employer of Record (the “EoR”). GlobalHire enables you to manage the administrative aspects of your engagement with the Business User. We also help coordinate the services you receive from the EoR. This includes conducting initial identity verification checks before onboarding you to GlobalHire.
3. Who is your employer?
The EoR is your employer. They are responsible for agreeing the terms of your engagement as a Consultant (the “Employment Agreement”). Your use of GlobalHire does not establish an employment relationship between you and Revolut. Revolut acts solely as the provider of the GlobalHire platform. Revolut is not responsible for your employment terms, salary, benefits, or any other obligations of an employer. The EoR is responsible for paying your salary, withholding and remitting taxes, and administering any statutory and voluntary benefits payable under your Employment Agreement.
4. Signing up to GlobalHire
You can only access GlobalHire for the purposes described in these Terms and in accordance with your Employment Agreement with the EoR. You must not access or attempt to access GlobalHire on behalf of anyone else, or use another person’s profile or credentials.
5. What you can use GlobalHire for
You can use GlobalHire to view and manage your personal details and the details of your engagement.
Feature | GlobalHire's Role |
Onboarding details and salary payments | You agree to provide Revolut with accurate and up to date details so that we can conduct initial identity verification checks. We will also provide your details to the EoR. Revolut is not responsible for any delays in payments being made to you. Payslips available on GlobalHire are provided by the EoR. |
Benefits | You are entitled to statutory benefits as mandated by the local labor laws of your country of employment. Benefit summaries shown on GlobalHire (e.g., healthcare, pension, allowances) are provided by the EoR. If you believe there are any inaccuracies or missing information, contact the EoR. Revolut simply displays the data it receives and is not responsible for any discrepancies. |

6. Data Protection
We process your personal data to operate GlobalHire and provide you with our services.
Revolut generally acts as a data controller of your personal data. However, we also act as a data processor on behalf of the EoR and the Business User in certain circumstances.
The EoR, acting as your legal employer, and the Business User will act as independent data controllers of your personal data.
Where required by applicable laws, your acceptance of these Terms constitutes your consent to your personal data being transferred outside your home country.

8. How do I stop using GlobalHire
To stop using GlobalHire, contact us at support-globalhire@revolut.com. We’ll first need to confirm with the EoR whether your Employment Agreement is still active, and whether any additional steps are required to complete your offboarding. This includes ensuring that all outstanding payments including final salary, benefits, taxes, or termination costs have been settled in full by the EoR.
9. When we may stop you from using GlobalHire
We may suspend your access to GlobalHire if:
- we reasonably believe that you breached these Terms,
- we suspect your use of GlobalHire is fraudulent, unreasonable, or will harm our goodwill, now or in the future, or
- we have another lawful reason for doing so.
Where possible, we’ll let you know in advance.
10. Are we responsible if something goes wrong with your use of GlobalHire?
We won’t be liable for any direct or indirect loss or damage that you suffer as a result of something that is outside our control or circumstances that are unavoidable despite us taking reasonable care. For example, failures of a third party, legal or regulatory intervention or hardware or software issues. We’ll only be liable for foreseeable losses.
If we break these Terms, we will only be responsible for any loss that we could have foreseen at the time we entered into the agreement. We will not be liable for any direct or indirect loss you suffer arising in relation to your use of GlobalHire, for example: loss of opportunity, loss of business or loss of profit.
11. When you might be responsible for our losses
If you have broken these Terms, and this has caused us to suffer a loss, the following will apply:
- you will be responsible for any losses we suffer as a result of your action (we will try to keep the losses to a minimum),
- if your actions result in us losing profits, you may also be responsible for those losses unless this would mean that we are compensated twice for the same loss, and
- you will also be responsible for any reasonable legal costs that arise as a result of our losses.
This includes any claims by our EoR or any third party against Revolut in relation to your use of GlobalHire.
12. Making complaints about GlobalHire
You can raise any complaints or feedback relating to your experience with GlobalHire through the Help & Support section of your GlobalHire dashboard, or email our support team at support-globalhire@revolut.com.
