Discover how Avibra is revolutionizing the gig economy by providing gig workers with essential benefits that ensure their health, financial security, and overall well-being.

The Gig Economy: Flexibility with a Catch

The gig economy is booming, offering flexible work arrangements that many people find appealing. It provides opportunities for better work-life balance and personal freedom, but there's a significant downside: limited access to traditional benefits like health insurance, paid leave, and retirement savings.

Gig workers often face challenges when it comes to securing essential benefits. This gap in support can lead to financial instability and health risks. That's where Avibra comes in, offering customized and affordable benefits to meet the unique needs of gig workers.

Avibra's Health and Wellness Offerings

Avibra recognizes that gig workers need quick and affordable access to healthcare solutions. Their health and wellness benefits include essential services such as:

  • Telemedicine: Consult with healthcare professionals via telehealth at a fraction of the cost of a typical doctor’s visit.
  • Prescription Discounts: Avibra’s partnerships provide discounts on prescription medications, making health expenses more manageable.
  • Mental Health Resources: With access to mental health support tools and resources, gig workers can maintain mental wellness, which is vital in high-demand, flexible work environments.

These health benefits ensure that gig workers can stay healthy and manage wellness proactively without the high cost of traditional healthcare plans.

Financial Safety Nets for Gig Workers

Independent work offers freedom, but it can also bring financial uncertainty. Avibra’s financial benefits help gig workers gain a sense of stability and security, with features like:

  • Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance: This insurance provides financial protection in case of severe injury or death, giving peace of mind to workers and their families.
  • Income Protection: Avibra’s income protection plan provides financial support for gig workers in case of illness or unexpected circumstances.
  • Critical Illness Insurance: This benefit provides support in the event of a serious health issue, helping to cover bills and expenses during recovery.

Additionally, Avibra offers tools like financial coaching and credit protection to help workers maintain their financial well-being, plan for the future, and protect against potential losses.

Lifestyle Perks that Add Real Value

Beyond health and financial support, Avibra includes lifestyle benefits that make gig work more enjoyable and affordable:


  • Legal Support: Gig workers can access discounted or free legal resources, covering everything from legal documents to consultations, giving peace of mind in handling contracts and personal matters.
  • Discounted and Free Services: From grocery savings to travel discounts, Avibra’s perks help members stretch their dollars and enjoy more in life.

These everyday benefits are designed to relieve some of the financial burdens that come with independent work while also providing perks that make life easier.

Education and Career Growth

Continuous learning and career development are crucial for gig workers looking to advance their careers. Avibra offers resources and tools that support education and skill enhancement, helping gig workers stay competitive in the ever-evolving job market.

Avibra’s Tuition Savings program, coming in Q4, allows gig workers to reduce the cost of online tuition at leading universities. Members can earn Tuition Grants, which can be applied toward degree programs, certificates, or even transferred to family members. This benefit is perfect for gig workers looking to upskill, change careers, or pursue higher education without a heavy financial burden.

Whether it's through online courses, workshops, or certification programs, these educational benefits ensure that gig workers can continue to grow and succeed in their chosen fields.

Looking Ahead: More Benefits on the Horizon

Avibra is committed to evolving its offerings to meet the changing needs of the gig economy. Here’s a sneak peek at some exciting benefits launching soon:

  • Homebuyer Assistance (Core Benefit): Launching on November 30, this benefit helps gig workers navigate the path to homeownership. Members can access guidance on the buying process and earn up to $4,000 in cash-back rewards when purchasing through Avibra’s partner network.

  • Tuition Savings (Core Benefit): Coming in Q4, this program offers tuition discounts for online programs at top universities. Gig workers can even share these Tuition Grants with family members, helping them pursue personal or career growth affordably.

  • Mileage Tracker (Core Benefit): Also arriving in Q4, this feature is perfect for gig workers who drive. The Mileage Tracker makes it simple to log miles for tax deductions, making it easier to save at tax time and track vehicle usage accurately.

  • NestVest (Core Benefit): Available in Q1, NestVest provides financial planning and guidance to help gig workers build a savings strategy, from managing income to planning for retirement.

  • TelePsychiatry (Dollar Benefit) and TeleDentistry (Dollar Benefit): These upcoming benefits (dates TBD) will provide affordable options for mental health support and dental consultations, two critical services for overall wellness.
