Benefits your people use, not just enrol in

Flexible benefits platform, built for how you reward people

A flexible benefits platform only earns its place if people use it. Ciphr benefits connects HR, payroll and reward, so choices made in one place show up correctly everywhere else, and your people get an employee benefits platform that feels personal instead of administrative.

Built for UK benefits, not adapted for them

Most employee benefits software is designed for a generic global market and adapted for the UK afterwards. Ciphr benefits is built the other way round: UK salary sacrifice rules, UK pension law and UK payroll cycles come first, not as an afterthought bolted onto a US template.

Employee benefits platform that flexes to your people, not the other way round

Your workforce isn't one generation with one set of priorities. Ciphr benefits lets you pick the right mix from world-class providers and put it behind one login, so each person builds a package that suits them.

Your beenfits data, protected

Data and privacy, handled the UK way

Benefits data is some of the most sensitive information HR holds: health details, financial protection, dependants. Ciphr’s employee benefits platform is built around UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act. It's supported by UK-based teams who understand what those rules mean for a benefits scheme, not just for a database.

Ciphr holds ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications, and is a Crown Commercial Service and Microsoft partner. That's not decoration. It's evidence you can point to when your CFO or IT lead asks how employee data is protected.

"The team at Ciphr are nothing but helpful and supportive, no matter the query and they are incredibly responsive"

Communications that get opened, not archived

A benefits scheme only works if people know what's in it. Ciphr benefits includes built-in communications tools, so reward and HR teams can reach people directly rather than hoping that emails are read. 

Announce

Publish news and updates with graphics, links and video, backed by automated notifications

Target

Group and categorise employees so the right message reaches the right people

Survey

Gather feedback or information from everyone, or from specific groups, without building anything from scratch

You're always in control, with HR and benefits from Ciphr

Why a standalone benefits system quietly costs you more

A benefits scheme that lives apart from HR means someone keeps the same information in two places.
 
Ciphr's employee benefits platform already sits in the same suite as Ciphr HR software. That means employee records and benefit choices stay in one place: choose someone's benefit level in HR and it carries through to benefits, with no data to chase and no additional data entry to make.
 
Because our payroll software integrates with Ciphr HR, core pay data also stays aligned without re-entry. So you're always in control, with fewer versions of the truth to keep straight, and fewer queries that return to HR's inbox

AI functionality that's grounded in your platform's data

Where AI fits, honestly

For a flexible benefits platform sitting inside HR and payroll, accuracy matters more than automation for its own sake. Ciphr's connected data means changes made in one part of the suite are reflected correctly everywhere else, which is the foundation any useful AI capability would need. Some of that connected AI intelligence exists today across the wider Ciphr suite; further AI capability specific to benefits is on the roadmap, and we'll say so plainly rather than describe it as already live.

Implementation is part of the product, not a login and a shrug

You aren't handed access and left to work out how salary sacrifice, provider integrations and communications fit together. Ciphr's implementation is a structured, supported process, with a named team guiding your organisation from data migration through to go-live.
