Integrates with all major payroll providers
What you get
Gym, supplements, massage, recovery, and sleep tech become HSA/FSA-eligible — pre-authorized, with the Letter of Medical Necessity applied at swipe.

AI-powered discovery of eligible spend employees already make — $3,000 found per person on average.

Card, contributions, compliance, and tax docs in one modern platform.
Smooth savings, investment, and transfers.
Partner discounts on top wellness brands.
Dedicated account manager and full member support — HR stops fielding the questions.

Mastercard and Apple Pay — works anywhere.
Hammock scans connected cards and accounts for eligible purchases. No receipts.
Doctor visits, prescriptions, therapy, and wellness in one dashboard.
Employees want GLP-1 coverage; uncapped pharmacy spend is untenable. Hammock’s answer is defined contribution, not open-ended coverage.
You set the allowance, delivered through a Specialty HRA. Employees fill through manufacturer-direct cash-pay programs, where prices now sit at or below what plans net after rebates.
Designed to preserve HSA eligibility alongside HDHPs, and pairs with PPO plans using HRA-pays-first ordering.
Cash stipends create group-health-plan compliance exposure. A properly structured HRA doesn’t.
Hammock handles the plan documents, adjudication, and compliance — no PBM, no prescribing.

Elsewhere, switching means weeks of vendor meetings. With Hammock it’s three steps — and we do the heavy lifting.
Direct integrations mean pre-tax contributions flow automatically. No files, no new HR process.
Two minutes to link accounts. Hammock surfaces eligible spending they were already paying for out of pocket.
Adoption and engagement across your population — real, used value at renewal.
The standalone Wellness Coverage tier works with employees’ existing HSA/FSA accounts — an entry point with zero account movement.
HSAs can move any time of year. If you run an FSA, we’ll time the switch to your plan-year renewal — either way, the conversation can start now.
The math
Hammock gets employees to commit more — 38% more per participant at our customers — by making the account actually worth using. Every extra pre-tax dollar saves the employee 30–50% in taxes, and saves you 7.65% in FICA.

Illustrative, not tax advice. Assumes a 30–50% combined employee tax rate, average pre-tax contribution levels, and a 38% contribution lift consistent with observed customer results. The employer figure reflects FICA savings on the contribution increase only.

HSAs and FSAs are the most confusing benefit an employee owns. Faced with tax rules, IRS limits, and use-it-or-lose-it deadlines, most people guess low or skip the accounts entirely.
A $1B tech company ran its open enrollment on Hammock: six days, all digital, every election built with the employer match, per-pay-period cost, and IRS limit on screen. Employees committed 38% more per participant than they’d contributed the year before, most elections went straight to the maximum, and the employer’s payroll-tax bill went down.
The program also became visible for the first time: the previous administrator had reported the employer match as $0 all year. On Hammock, people finally used what the company was already paying for.
| Metric | Before | On Hammock |

| Committed per participant | $4,039 | $5,561 |
| Elections at the IRS max | ~20% | 64% |

Compliance & substantiation
01
An expense is eligible when a licensed provider documents a genuine medical purpose. The Letter of Medical Necessity is the record of that determination.
02
Individual clinical evaluation, never blanket category approvals.
03
Records retained and accessible to participants at any time.
04
IIAS and auto-substantiation where available; LMN or receipt on file otherwise.
05
Eligibility, documentation, and substantiation handled without added burden on your team.
White-glove support
Group setup with native payroll integration — pre-tax deductions flow seamlessly from day one, no files to manage.
Live sessions and HSA-vs-FSA explainers at launch, then ongoing education through the year — enrollment reminders, contribution check-ins, and new-hire onboarding.
A dedicated point of contact, one message away.
When an HDHP employee at our $1B customer missed the enrollment window, one message from our team had him enrolled at the family maximum the next day.
For brokers & advisors
The only HSA/FSA that unlocks tax-free wellness. Your clients have never been offered anything like it.
Employees use it monthly, so clients see value at every renewal — not once a year at tax time.
Replaces the legacy HSA/FSA outright with something categorically better.
Partner with Hammock
Unlock wellness spending on employees’ existing HSA/FSA accounts. No migration.
The full modern administrator, end to end.
Everything in both, working as one.
All plans include white-glove support, employee onboarding, and benefits education.
A full administrator — card, contributions, compliance, and tax docs — plus the wellness layer legacy administrators don’t have.
Three steps, and we do the heavy lifting: connect payroll, employees activate, you see the impact. Launch in as little as one week.
No. The standalone Wellness Coverage tier works with employees’ existing HSA/FSA accounts — zero account movement.
Almost certainly. Hammock integrates directly with all major payroll providers, so pre-tax contributions flow automatically.
Very little. Onboarding is turnkey, employees self-activate in about two minutes, and our team fields member questions — not yours.
Yes — built on established IRS rules, not a workaround. Eligibility is grounded in IRC §213(d), determined per participant, and every determination is documented and audit-ready.
Cash stipends for GLP-1s create group-health-plan compliance exposure. A properly structured HRA delivers a defined, tax-free contribution without it.
Simple per-employee-per-month pricing, scoped to headcount and the modules you choose. Talk to our team for a quote.
Yes — brokers and agencies can bring Hammock to their whole book. See For brokers & advisors.




I had no idea my Equinox membership could be reimbursed. Hammock handled everything in two days. I’m saving over $3,200 a year.
