TRUSTED BY:

Current Challenges with Traditional Group Plans

Not portable ☹️

Coverage disappears when employees leave.

Administrative burden

ERISA compliance and payroll integration create headaches.

Limited coverage amounts

Often too low to meet employee needs.

Narrow product types

Typically just basic term or accidental death, with no cash value or retirement-friendly options.

Participation rules

Most carriers require 50–75% enrollment.

PortivaLife:
Add a Turn-Key Life Insurance Benefit, no Stress Attached

Offer employees portable, individually owned life insurance—at no cost, no payroll involvement, and no admin work for HR.​

(which also means no ERISA)

The Benefits of PortivaLife

Our approach brings employees meaningful, long-term financial protection while removing cost, compliance, and administrative burden from HR. Every policy is individually owned, portable, and tailored to each employee, making this a true win-win benefit for both the company and its people.

Financial Security

Employees with life insurance are far more likely to feel financially secure, which
boosts performance, focus, and job satisfaction.

Voluntary Enrollment

Employees choose whether or not to
enroll and how much coverage to get,
without being subject to a restrictive
“open enrollment” period.

No Cost, no Admin for HR

Policies are employee-paid, with direct
carrier billing (no payroll integration). Our
agents will also provide all customer
service for your employees’ coverage.

Expanded Product Access

Beyond term life, employees can explore permanent life insurance with cash value growth and other tax-advantaged
strategies for saving and retirement.

Guaranteed Issue Coverage

We offer guaranteed issue options for employees who may not qualify medically, ensuring everyone has access to
protection and peace of mind.

Recruiting & Retention Edge

Strengthen your benefits package to
compete with larger employers while improving employee satisfaction, loyalty,
and retention rates.

Supporting Research (LIMRA / Life Happens):

68% of life insurance owners feel financially secure, compared to only 47% of non-owners.

Just 25% of adults with only workplace life insurance coverage say they are very or extremely knowledgeable about life insurance.

More than 4 in 10 households (42%) that only have workplace life insurance coverage say their families would struggle financially in less than six months should a wage earner die unexpectedly.

As of 2023, 67% of employers said life insurance is an important benefit (up 14 percentage points from 2021).

When it comes to benefits employees are looking for in a potential employer, 30% are looking for insurance benefits such as life insurance, disability insurance, and dental insurance.

PortivaLife: Simple, Fast, & Hands-Free

Step 1 — Introduce PortivaLife to Your Team

We host a short educational workshop (live or recorded) to help your employees understand how portable, individually-owned life insurance works — and why it matters for their families. This is educational in nature, there is no sales pitch and no obligation to enroll.

Step 2 — Employees May Enroll, Only if They Choose to

Any employee who wants coverage meets with us privately. Policies are individually owned, underwritten per person, and premiums are paid directly from the employee’s account — no payroll involvement and no employer administration.

Step 3 — Employees Can Keep the Coverage, Even if They Leave

Each employee owns their policy for life. If they change jobs, retire, or relocate, their coverage goes with them — giving them true long-term protection without creating any ongoing responsibility for your company.

Services Included:

Personal Coverage Reviews

We onboard each employee individually & review their coverage periodically as life, family, or career evolves over time.

Educational workshops help employees understand life insurance & make informed decisions without pressure.

Online Employee Education Portal

Frequently Asked Questions

No. PortivaLife policies are individually-owned. Each employee applies for and owns their own coverage, and the policy is issued directly to them. Because it is not employer-sponsored and not paid through payroll, it does not function like a traditional group benefit.

No. Since the employer does not pay for the coverage, does not administer it, and does not control enrollment, the program is considered a voluntary, employee-owned benefit. PortivaLife is specifically designed to avoid ERISA and administrative burden for your organization.

No. PortivaLife premiums are paid directly between the employee and the carrier. There is no payroll integration, no accounting impact, and no ongoing employer involvement.

A PortivaLife policy is theirs — it stays in force with no changes. Because it is not tied to employment, they keep their coverage when changing jobs, retiring, or relocating.

PortivaLife works well for small and mid-sized companies that want to offer stronger protection and financial-wellness support to their teams — especially in roles where retention, family security, and stability matter.

No — it complements it. Many employees choose to keep their group life coverage and add PortivaLife to fill gaps and ensure they aren’t left unprotected when they leave an employer.
