Payroll - Health Benefits via SimplyInsured
41% of restaurant employees rank health insurance as one of the top 3 benefits that their employer can offer.* This month, we launched a new way for Toast Payroll Pro customers to offer health insurance to their teams!
Through this new feature, Toast Payroll Pro now integrates with thousands of health insurance plans and all major carriers through SimplyInsured, a national benefits broker. Payroll Pro customers can shop and sign up for insurance plans, manage open enrollment, and sync deductions automatically each pay run, all directly within Payroll.
Insurance policies available through Ten 250 Corporation, dba SimplyInsured, pursuant to its licenses. Neither Toast, Inc., nor any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, sells or underwrites insurance. However, Toast Insurance Services, Inc. (“TIS”) maintains various insurance licenses and may receive compensation in connection with policies purchased through SimplyInsured. Policy documents govern, terms & exclusions apply.
* To help better understand the restaurant industry and restaurant employees, Toast conducted a blind survey of 624 restaurant employees in the United States, from both Toast and non-Toast customers, from January 31, 2025, to February 19, 2025. Respondents include a mix of front-of-house, back-of-house, and managerial positions. Respondents were not made aware that Toast was fielding the study. Panel providers granted incentives to restaurant respondents for participation. Using a standard margin of error calculation, at a confidence interval of 95%, the margin of error on average is +/- 4%.
