NTUC Income launches digital benefits platform Start.Sure

NTUC Income has launched Start.Sure, a digital platform designed for young startups with 2 to 15 employees . The platform allows companies to purchase and manage employee benefits with ease.

Start.Sure offers three types of employee benefit plans: Energiser, Turbo Booster and Super Charger; all cater specifically to meet the employee protection needs of startups at different life stages and scale. The insurance plans, which cover pre and post-hospitalization and surgical expenses, including kidney dialysis, cancer treatments and out-patient consultation by a general practitioner, require no paperwork and underwriting. Also, the plans offer three-month free coverage for employees should the startups cease operation.

“As the name suggests, we aim to be the reliable companion to these budding entrepreneurs so that they are free to focus on accelerating the growth of their companies. Start.Sure aims to offer a sure footing for startups to launch their ambitions, while at the same time, give protection to their employees who are one of the company’s key assets. The intuitive digital platform is aligned to startups’ way of working and reflects our philosophy of making insurance simple and accessible for all in Singapore” – Income’s COO Peter Tay .

Oh, and Cafebond.com is already a client.

PS. Income plans to partner with NTUC U Startup, which was set up in 2016 to support the startup community in Singapore, to raise the awareness of Start.Sure among its ecosystem of entrepreneurs.
