What Makes Benefy Different?
A More Personal, Transparent Approach to Employee Benefits
Choosing the right benefits partner can be challenging. Between large national brokerages and one-size-fits-all solutions, it’s easy to feel like every option looks the same. But once you start working with them, the differences become clear.
At Benefy, we’ve built something more personal, more transparent, and better suited to growing Canadian businesses. Here’s what sets us apart from firms like HUB, GroupHEALTH, and other national players.
1. Independent Advice You Can Trust
Benefy is a fully independent brokerage. We are not tied to any one insurance company and we don’t operate under sales quotas or exclusive agreements.
This independence allows us to shop the full market, compare options side by side, and make recommendations that are entirely based on your needs. We work for our clients, not for insurance carriers.
2. Personal Service That Goes Beyond the Basics
When you partner with Benefy, you get direct access to a dedicated advisor who understands your business, your team, and your plan.
We’re known for fast response times and consistent follow-through, but we also go further. We offer in-person and virtual employee benefits seminars to help your staff understand and use their coverage. Whether it’s a team meeting, onboarding session, or one-on-one support, we’re here to make sure your plan delivers real value to your people.
3. The Paw Pledge
Every time we implement a new benefits plan, we make a donation to a local animal welfare organization. This is part of our Paw Pledge, and it's our way of giving back while helping businesses support their teams.
It’s a simple, meaningful initiative that reflects our values and the kind of partners we work with.
4. Simplicity and Clarity
We believe benefits should be easy to understand. That’s why we communicate in plain language and take the time to walk you through how your plan works, what’s covered, and how to make informed choices.
If you’ve ever received a renewal update with no explanation or context, you’ll notice the difference right away.
5. Scalable Plans for Teams of All Sizes
Benefy supports businesses at every stage of growth. Whether you're just starting out, or managing a team of 200, we’ll help you build a plan that fits your budget and your team’s needs.
We provide:
Health Spending Accounts (HSAs)
Traditional group insurance plans
Hybrid models
ASO/Self-Insured Plans
Group RRSP/TFSA programs
As your business evolves, we’ll adjust your plan accordingly so it stays aligned with your goals.
6. No Surprises at Renewal Time
One of the most common complaints we hear from businesses switching to us is that their previous broker didn’t communicate until renewal was due.
We take a proactive approach by reviewing your plan performance throughout the year, keeping you informed, and presenting options in advance of your renewal date. You’ll have time to review, ask questions, and make decisions with confidence.
7. Canadian-Owned and Canadian-Focused
Benefy is 100% Canadian owned and operated. We understand the regulatory landscape, the provincial differences in coverage, and the real-world challenges facing small and mid-sized Canadian businesses.
If you’ve worked with a multinational firm, you know how valuable local expertise can be. We’re focused entirely on the needs of Canadian companies.
Is It Time for a Better Benefits Experience?
If your current broker feels distant, unresponsive, or misaligned with your values, we’d be happy to provide a second opinion. Benefy offers complimentary plan reviews with no obligation. Whether you want to compare your current setup or start fresh, we’re ready to help.
