Creates a new company.
Creating a company with only the required request body parameters
When you call this endpoint and omit all the optional parameters in the request body,
the following resources get created upon a successful response:
- A new company with status
pending
. - A company owner for the new company with status
initiated
.
See the update a company endpoint for
more details on how to get your company and its owner to active
status.
If you'd like to create a company and its owner with active
status in a single request,
please provide the optional address_details
parameter as well.
Accepting the Terms of Service
A required step for creating a company in Remote is to accept our Terms of Service (ToS).
Company managers need to be aware of our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy,
hence it's the responsibility of our partners to advise and ensure company managers read
and accept the ToS. The terms have to be accepted only once, before creating a company,
and the Remote API will collect the acceptance timestamp as its confirmation.
To ensure users read the most recent version of Remote's Terms of Service, their acceptance
must be done within the last fifteen minutes prior the company creation action.
To retrieve this information, partners can provide an element with any text and a description
explaining that by performing that action they are accepting Remote's Term of Service. For
instance, the partner can add a checkbox or a "Create Remote Account" button followed by a
description saying "By creating an account, you agree to
Remote's Terms of Service. Also see Remote's
Privacy Policy".
