Empyrean Partners With Benifex to Deliver a More Connected Global Benefits Experience

The partnership gives multinational employers new access to trusted benefits administration technology and award-winning services, without borders.

HOUSTON, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Empyrean, a U.S.-based company committed to helping organizations build connected cultures, today announced a strategic partnership with Benifex, the award-winning employee platform that delivers HR and benefits experiences worldwide. The alliance empowers their shared employer clients with a more connected, consistent, and truly global approach to benefits administration and employee experience.

The partnership gives Empyrean clients easy access to a trusted international benefits administration solution through Benifex, and it empowers international Benifex clients with easy access to Empyrean's trusted U.S. benefits platform and services.

The collaboration provides a modern, more robust alternative to legacy global solutions. It combines Empyrean's award-winning technology and respected service model with Benifex's global platform and regional expertise across benefits, wellbeing, rewards and recognition, and communication. The result answers a critical market gap: the lack of a completely dependable solution and proven expertise that delivers a great employee benefits experience in any market or region.

"Multinational organizations are increasingly focused on delivering a connected, personalized experience for every employee, regardless of where they work," said Jim Priebe, Chief Strategy Officer at Empyrean. "Our partnership with Benifex helps employers achieve that goal by simplifying operations and connecting them with trusted international expertise to support a global workforce."

Multinational organizations face complex challenges when trying to deliver a unified, employee-centric benefits experience across borders. These challenges stem from the need to balance global consistency with local relevance, while managing diverse regulatory landscapes, technologies, and cultural expectations.

This partnership begins to redefine what global benefits delivery can look like for today's benefits administrators and HR professionals and their workforces. Combining Empyrean's U.S. expertise with Benifex's global capabilities gives employers a scalable solution that's as strategic for HR teams as it is seamless for employees.

"This partnership is an exciting addition to our ecosystem of global partners, reflecting our desire to partner with market leaders who share our passion for innovation and unrelenting focus on the experience of customers and their employees," said Adam Mason, Chief Strategy Officer at Benifex. "At Benifex, our mission is to build experiences that employees love, simplifying the complex and delivering personalized benefits experiences at a global scale. By partnering with Empyrean, we're empowering employers to unify their global strategy, unlock deeper data insights, and provide employees with the kind of seamless, mobile-first experience they've come to expect — wherever they are in the world."
