Our take
YuLife wants to change the life insurance landscape, by gamifying health and wellbeing. Working with businesses and their employees, YuLife rewards people for their everyday healthy behaviours, encouraging users to complete activities like walking or meditation then rewarding them with air miles, vouchers, and gift cards from partners.
With over 85% of SMEs having no life insurance for their employees in place, YuLife also wants to streamline the process of purchasing insurance. Through the company, employers can offer membership as a perk. Users can then progress through levels, compete with colleagues and earn yucoin for healthy choices. The currency can be exchanged for rewards such as gym memberships and gift cards.
YuLife has experienced significant success in the UK, and is now seeking to use this momentum to propel itself into global operations, staring with the US market. It continues to launch new features, such as health insurance options, gamified training courses for brokers, and an AI-powered metric that assesses business health and wellbeing.
