The problem

Benefits packages are broken. Nobody reads them.

The average small business offers a stack of benefits — health insurance, 401(k), HSA, FSA, life insurance — but nobody teaches employees how to actually use them. Your team is leaving money on the table and losing sleep over it.

They don't know what they have

Most employees can't tell you what their deductible is, how their 401(k) matching works, or whether they should be using an HSA or FSA. Benefits are invisible until they need them.

Financial stress kills performance

Money problems are the #1 cause of employee distraction, absenteeism, and turnover. One in three employees says financial stress has negatively impacted their productivity at work.

Enterprise tools don't fit SMBs

Financial wellness platforms were built for big companies with big budgets. Small businesses need something affordable, personal, and actually deployable without a six-week IT implementation.

The Fundwise approach

Coaching that moves the needle.

Fundwise pairs every employee with a real financial coach — not a chatbot, not a library of videos. Real people who help your team understand their benefits, tackle debt, build savings, and sleep better at night.

01

Benefits education

We walk employees through their entire benefits package — health insurance, 401(k), HSA, FSA, life insurance. They learn what they have, what it's worth, and how to use it.

02

Financial coaching

One-on-one sessions with a certified financial guide. Budgeting, debt payoff, emergency funds, retirement planning. Tailored to where each person actually is.

03

Ongoing support

Financial stress doesn't end after one session. Your team gets continued access to their coach — questions come up, life happens, we're still here.

How it works

Up and running in under a week.

1

Quick consultation

We learn about your team size, current benefits, and what you're hoping to achieve. Takes 30 minutes.

2

We onboard your employees

Fundwise runs a 45-minute group session so your team understands what they have and how Fundwise works. Zero friction.

3

Coaching begins

Each employee gets matched with a financial guide. Sessions are 1:1, confidential, and scheduled around their life.
