About Emerge

Emerge Workplace Solutions is an employee benefit company that offers workplace-based financial wellness program, partnering with employers to help their workers plan their financial futures and build real credit. Major employers seek out Emerge because they know financial stress takes a toll on their workers’ health and productivity. The Emerge program engages employees with an ongoing financial education program, with financial wellness assessments, educational roadmaps, and one-on-one credit counseling. Workers can apply for small affordable loans through socially responsible partner banks and credit unions. Emergency personal loans through Emerge enable workers to raise their credit scores or more and qualify for traditional borrowing, helping them to meet immediate needs while improving their long term financial stability.

Trust is everything in business. As a start-up , it’s hard to gain trust in the marketplace with an unknown brand. Emerge differentiates its approach with the B Corporation seal, which signals our commitment to a business model that creates value and profits by solving a critical social problem. It reassures new customers and social investors that our products and services are designed to help low- and middle-income working people avoid crippling debt, support their families, and increase their opportunities in life. The B Corporation certification tells all of our stakeholders what we stand for and is a permanent commitment to these values. Only with this explicit commitment can our business truly be a powerful force for positive social change.
