We Work Remotely vs Xpat Jobs

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Remote-only job board with simple paid posts, at $299 per post.

Where We Work Remotely fits

  • Remote-first companies
  • Teams buying a single remote job post
  • Employers who want a remote-only audience
  • Small teams that do not need a database

Xpat Jobs

€199/job

Xpat Jobs fits employers and recruitment agencies hiring English-speaking expats or multilingual staff across many countries. A single post is €199 for two months, so a one-off international role is cheap to test. Agencies posting in volume can take Basic, Premium or Enterprise plans from €245 a month on a six-month minimum, or a pay-per-click plan. It is a reach play for international roles, not a local board for one market.

Where Xpat Jobs fits

  • Hiring English-speaking expats abroad
  • Multilingual and language-specific roles
  • Agencies posting across several countries
  • One-off international posts at €199

Where they pull apart

We Work Remotely

Stands out: A remote-only audience, with no subscription to manage.

Watch out: Priced per post rather than monthly, and there is no resume database.

Not the right fit for

  • Office-based hiring
  • Buyers who want a monthly subscription

Xpat Jobs

Stands out: Keyword search accepts foreign-language terms and matches jobs written in that language, and jobs can be browsed by required language. The board reports that 72% of its users speak more than two languages and 81% are aged 25 to 45.

Watch out: Multi-post plans need a six-month commitment at the listed monthly price; a single trial month costs €100 more. The site's audience figures are broad claims such as millions of monthly users, without per-country numbers.

Not the right fit for

  • Local hiring in a single domestic market
  • Employers who want month-to-month volume plans
  • Teams needing an ATS
