Multiple technology related problems with their website and backend. It could be a good company someday but it seems to be struggling with the technology to run a company.

Lively is very user-friendly

Lively is very user-friendly, provides easy reimbursements, and the option to invest my balance once I met the minimum threshold. I appreciate how simple it is to track expenses and upload receipts, which gives me peace of mind and keeps everything organized.
Having a Lively HSA has helped me save significantly on healthcare costs, and it's great knowing that unused funds roll over year to year and can be used in retirement. I highly recommend looking into a Lively HSA it’s a powerful tool for managing both current and future healthcare expenses.

Great place to start my HSA future.

Website was easy to get registered and started. It was then an excellent portal for transferring my funds to a long term investment account. Lively was easy, motivating and trustworthy. Thank you for getting me started on my HSA account journey.

I’ve used a few different providers personally and Lively was by far the best and easiest to use. Some banks handling them do not even understand the rules. I was an Employee Benefits Advisor and reviewed many if these, this is the one I passed onto my clients as one to look into.
