Thrive Services

"More than just health insurance" Your employer takes care of your health cover — but we can help with the bigger picture too. Here's what else we can do for you

Life Insurance

If something happened to you, would your family be okay? We can help you find the right level of cover to protect the people who matter most.

Trauma Insurance

A serious diagnosis like cancer, a heart attack, or stroke can turn life upside down. Trauma cover pays you a lump sum so you can focus on recovery — not the bills.

Disability

Your ability to earn is your biggest asset. If illness or injury kept you off work, income protection means your bills don't stop just because your pay does.

KiwiSaver

Are you getting the most from your KiwiSaver? We can help you check you're in the right fund and on track for the retirement you're planning for.
