Vie Inc. – Transforming Access to Life Insurance
Sometimes a setback can lead to something great in life. Just like in 2019 a message changed Jake Bass’s life and led to the inception of Vie Inc. The message was that a close family friend had been hospitalized due to a heart attack. His friend had considered buying a life insurance policy but then dropped the idea because of the cost, intending to wait for the right time. But tragically the time never came. This event raised a question that became the foundation of the groundbreaking venture – “How can life insurance be made more accessible to those who need it most, especially the less affluent?”
The Core Mission and Vision
Vie Inc. was established with a simple yet powerful mission to provide equal access to premier financial services to people from all walks of life. The mission is professional as well as personal and reflects Jake’s commitment to helping others build wealth, protect themselves, and secure a better future for their families. The vision of Viecard.io is to democratize financial tools, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to safeguard their financial future, irrespective of their economic background.
Overview and Offerings
Vie Inc. is more than just a financial services company. The company educates, connects, and provides financing to consumers to enhance their long-term financial positions. The innovative approach of Viecard.io involves providing funds for purchasing permanent life insurance policies. These insurance policies offer life protection and their value increases over time. Then customers can use this value to repay the initial financing. This ingenious model by Viecard.io allows consumers to use life insurance without the upfront costs because of which they often neglect to buy insurance.
Distinguishing Factors
Viecard.io’s commitment to action sets it apart from others in the market. While many companies ignore financial literacy, Viecard.io is a step ahead as it provides the necessary information and financing to its customers. This step helps individuals understand the policy’s tangible opportunities and helps them get long-term benefits.
Just like any startup, Viecard.io also faced its share of challenges. The main challenge was generating interest in people about an out-of-the-box novel financial solution. It requires passion and persistence to convince people to care about something that they take for granted. Additionally, Jake had to overcome typical startup challenges such as securing capital and building a business infrastructure. Despite these obstacles, Jake Bass’s dedication and love for the mission made the journey rewarding.
Milestones and Achievements
Since its inception, Viecard.io has achieved significant milestones. One of the crucial milestones for the firm is that it signed a partnership with Mastercard, enhancing the company’s credibility and reach. Jake has built a network of hundreds of life insurance agents to serve as distribution channels. Viecard.io’s partnership with Whiteswan Insurance Services, a digital insurance distributor, further enhances its market presence. Not only this, Jake has added another feather to his hat as his firm Viecard.io has recently completed a pre-seed funding round and the remaining process is in progress.
