Common questions, honest answers
Is RemoteJobs44 free to use?▾
Yes — browsing all 50,000+ remote jobs and saving favourites is completely free. You only pay if you want to apply to roles via the platform or use the AI tools. The Day Pass (₦500) gives you 24 hours of full access with 10 applications. Pro Monthly (₦2,999) or Pro Annual (₦29,999) unlock unlimited applications and AI tools.
How do I get paid by remote employers?▾
Most remote companies pay via Wise (TransferWise), Deel, Remote.com, Geegpay, Grey, Chipper Cash, or Payoneer. These route USD / GBP / EUR into your local Nigerian, Kenyan, South African, or Ghanaian bank account. For full-time roles, the employer typically uses Deel or Remote.com which handles payroll, contracts, and benefits for you.
Will US / UK / EU companies actually hire from Africa?▾
Yes — and increasingly so. Companies like Stripe, GitLab, Toptal, Andela, Automattic, and hundreds of YC-funded startups regularly hire from Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Egypt, and Morocco. The key signals: clear written English, demonstrated output (portfolio / GitHub), and timezone overlap with the team’s core hours.
How are jobs sourced?▾
We aggregate from 8+ major job APIs (Remotive, RemoteOK, Arbeitnow, Working Nomads, Himalayas, Jobicy, SerpApi-backed Google Jobs) and direct Greenhouse / Lever / Ashby / Workable ATS feeds, refreshed every 6 hours. Duplicates and expired listings are filtered automatically.
What is the AI CV Review?▾
A Pro feature: paste your CV text, choose a target role, and receive a 0–100 score, a list of strengths, gaps, missing ATS keywords, and rewrite tips. The review uses one of 8 supported AI providers (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, Mistral, etc.) that an admin enables in the platform.
What is the AI Interview Prep?▾
Type a role + level (e.g. "Senior Backend Engineer"), get back behavioural, technical, and remote-specific interview questions with answer skeletons and red-flag mistakes to avoid. Pro feature.
Can I cancel my subscription?▾
Yes, anytime. Cancellation is "soft" — you keep Pro access until the end of your current billing period, then auto-downgrade to Free. We never charge cancellation fees. Manage cancellation from /settings → Billing.
Is my payment information secure?▾
Yes. All payments go through Paystack, which is PCI-DSS Level 1 certified. RemoteJobs44 never stores card numbers — only a customer reference. Webhooks are signed with HMAC-SHA512 and verified server-side before any subscription changes.
Does Day Pass roll over if I don’t use my 10 applications?▾
No. Day Pass is a 24-hour window with a 10-application limit. Unused applications expire when the window does. If you need more, Pro Monthly gives unlimited applications for ₦2,999 / month.
How is RemoteJobs44 different from Indeed or LinkedIn?▾
Indeed and LinkedIn aren’t remote-first — most "remote" listings on those sites are actually hybrid or US-only. RemoteJobs44 only carries fully-remote roles, with explicit filters for African candidates: region, timezone overlap, and country eligibility. We also include AI CV review and interview prep, which neither offers.
Where are you based and who runs this?▾
RemoteJobs44 is built and operated by a small team based in Nigeria. We started because the existing remote job boards weren’t designed for African talent — pricing was in USD, filtering by African region was non-existent, and there was no localised support. See /about for more.
Do you have a mobile app?▾
Yes — RemoteJobs44 is a Progressive Web App (PWA), so you can "Add to Home Screen" from your mobile browser and use it like a native app. No app store install required.
