Enrollment

How employee enrollment works

Invitations go by text and email. Employees enroll from their phone.

When you launch Benefi at your company, employees receive enrollment invitations by text and email. The entire process takes about 5 minutes on their phone. No paperwork, no office visits, no waiting for ID cards.

The enrollment invitation

Your HR team uploads the employee roster to Benefi. Within 24 hours, each eligible employee receives:

  • A text message with their personal enrollment link
  • An email with the same link (as backup)
  • Their company's unique access code

The invitation clearly shows it's from your company, not an unknown sender. Employees who miss the first message get automatic reminders after 3 and 7 days.

What employees need to enroll

  1. Their phone. The whole process works on any smartphone.
  2. Basic personal info. Name, birthdate, address.
  3. 5 minutes. Most employees finish in less time.

The enrollment experience

Employees tap the link and land on a mobile-friendly enrollment page. First, they enter the company access code to verify they work for you.

The enrollment flow walks them through:

Personal information. Legal name, date of birth, home address. The system pre-fills their work email if you provided it.

Plan selection. Employees see your available Benefi plans (Essential at $59/month or Plus at $129/month) with a clear comparison of what each covers. If you're covering some or all of the cost, they see their portion.

Dependents. Employees can add eligible family members if your company offers dependent coverage. The system shows the additional cost clearly.

Payment. For any employee contribution, they enter payment details. Benefi handles all billing directly with employees.

Confirmation. Once complete, employees get instant access to their digital member ID and can download the Benefi app immediately. Their coverage starts on the date your company specified.

Employees who get stuck can use the help button for immediate assistance. Spanish-speaking employees see the entire flow in Spanish automatically based on their phone settings.

After enrollment closes, your HR team gets a complete report showing who enrolled, which plans they selected, and who still needs to sign up. You can extend deadlines or add new employees anytime through your employer dashboard.
