2026 Corporate vision award - Benefitsconnect

benefitsConnect is proud to kick off 2026 by being recognized as Corporate Vision’s “Best Employee Benefits & HR Tech Provider 2026 – Ontario.” This recognition reinforces our commitment to redefining the group benefits and group savings (RRSP) experience with innovative, technology-driven solutions.

Empowering clients to strengthen their employees’ financial wellness through Group RRSP offering

Financial wellness works best when solutions are simple, accessible, and easy to manage. At benefitsConnect, we help bring these solutions together, making it easier for employers such as Tourism Kingston to deliver meaningful financial wellness with confidence.
