Remote Benefits:

Global Wellness and LifeStyle Benefit

Support your team’s well-being worldwide with a flexible, personalized Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit

Remote’s Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit provides a monthly Wellness Budget to your team members, managed through the ThanksBEN platform and accessible via their virtual card. They can use it at approved stores, online retailers, or other approved vendors, selecting wellness and lifestyle options that support their physical and mental health, personal growth, and work-life balance.

Please note that if you choose to offer this benefit, it must be available to all team members in the country based on the equality principle.

Remote Global Wellness and LifeStyle Benefit

Remote has partnered with ThanksBEN to provide a flexible Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit for your team


ThanksBEN’s platform is available on desktop and mobile and allows employees to access a wide variety of wellness and lifestyle services, including:

  • Physical and mental health support such as gym memberships, fitness classes, therapy, mindfulness apps, and guided meditation.
  • Lifestyle services like streaming subscriptions (Spotify, Netflix), groceries, and other services that support work-life balance and personal well-being.
  • Personalized recommendations to help employees select benefits most relevant to their needs.
  • Platform support for employees needing immediate assistance or guidance on wellness-related concerns.

Clients can choose to offer the Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit and select from multiple contribution levels. Once a plan is selected, employees are automatically enrolled, and the company will be charged monthly. Employees have the option to opt out at any time, in which case enrollment will be terminated and charges will stop effective from the following month.

It is important to note that in certain countries, wellness benefits may be considered a Benefit in Kind (BIK). This means the monthly contributions paid by the company could be treated as taxable income for the employee under local tax laws.

Pricing and benefits are subject to change based on business and market conditions. Any updates will be communicated to clients as they occur.

  • Currency: All contributions are listed in USD. Local currency equivalents will be calculated automatically at the time of use.
  • Service Fee: The Benefits Service Fee of $15 per enrolled employee per month applies (a single fee regardless of the number of benefits offered).


Start and End Date of the Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit

  • Start date: Employees will be enrolled in the Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit from the 1st day of the month following their employment start date.
    Example: If an employee starts on July 15, their benefit will begin on August 1. The benefit card will be topped up between the 5th and 7th of that month.
  • End date: The Wellness & Lifestyle Benefit for your employees will remain active until the end of their termination month. Benefits are not pro-rated in the final month.
    Example: If an employee’s termination date is August 20, their wallet will remain active until August 31. Any unused balance after August 31 will no longer be accessible
