Company mission

To provide an all-encompassing employee benefits solution that removes the complexity of tax regulations and meets the diverse needs of employees.

Our take

Managing employee benefits can be a tedious task. It is administratively heavy, and in the end, many benefits go unused by employees. Become.1 hopes to change this, with a platform to make employee benefits simpler for employers and more accessible for employees.

What makes the platform stand out is its flexibility. Employers can select which benefits to make available, and then employees get a budget to spend on what works best for them and their lives. This is a great way for businesses to deliver benefits that make a real difference - and stand out to job seekers.

With over 80% of businesses stating they plan to increase their spending on benefits, Become.1 is in a great position to facilitate this trend while also saving these businesses time and money. Its approach has seen it raise promising funds that will be used to further expand its platform.
