Heka review
A low-cost benefits marketplace combining wellbeing recommendations, allowances and bookings.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Heka combines employee benefits management with wellbeing services for startups, SMEs and enterprise organisations. Employees receive AI-personalised recommendations and can use an employer-funded allowance to book products, services and experiences from partner providers. Coverage spans physical health, mental wellbeing, fitness, nutrition, fertility, menopause and finance, while employers can display existing benefits alongside Heka’s offering. Access is available through a web platform and companion iOS and Android apps.
Pricing is straightforward: Standard Heka access costs £3 per user per month when billed annually. The plan includes the wellbeing benefits platform and an employer-funded wellbeing allowance. Health, virtual GP and EAP extras are optional, so employers can shape the offer around their benefits strategy rather than treating every service as part of the core plan. This structure makes Heka particularly relevant for organisations seeking a broad marketplace with a defined per-user price and allowance-based employee access.
The main operational strengths are benefit aggregation, partner bookings and administration tools. Employers can view usage and impact data through the admin dashboard, while employees can access recommendations and bookings on mobile or web. Multi-factor authentication is also included. Heka is a strong fit for employers that want to bring varied wellbeing benefits into one employee-facing experience without building a narrow standalone programme. Organisations primarily seeking intensive direct wellbeing programming, challenges or assessment-led engagement may prefer a more specialised platform.
