Our take

The US labor market is creating higher demand for top tier talent, and many companies are looking to improve their benefits as a way of staying competitive. Strong health insurance and holiday policies, however, no longer cut it. Benepass is a benefits administration company looking to help companies stay ahead in this new landscape.

The basic Benepass premise is that pre- and post- tax benefits should be flexible and accessible for employees. As things stand, tax-advantage benefits are hugely under-leveraged by employees, because they are hard to use or unsuitable for individuals. Benepass’ app centralises and simplifies the process, allowing employees to explore, track, and exercise benefits from a single platform and VISA card.

Many platforms directed towards simplifying employee benefits don’t yet offer the same tangible features, and also don't focus on the more complex area of tax-advantage benefits. Therefore, Benepass’ solution is an easy win/win, which is why it has gained strong funding and attention. The latest influx fuels the expansion of its offerings, for example to support more specialized and cost-sensitive employer programs.
