How Flywire implemented a Wellbeing service in time for their IPO and boosted employee brand perception, retention and engagement.
Challenge:
Flywire is an insight and technology company that helps organisations to optimise payment experiences for their customers. They have over 500 employees referred to as FlyMates, across 13 locations. In the lead up to their IPO on the Nasdaq and in line with their values Flywire wished to lead the way in offering wellbeing support for their employees. Our goal was to rapidly establish and provide a partnership in provision of an effective, expert, easy to access, one to one Wellbeing Coaching and Mental Health service for any Flywire employee regardless of where they were located in the world.
Solution:
Transparent partnership and provision of easily accessed, highly skilled, diverse and multilingual Clinical Psychologists.
ComposurePsychology provided a global team of rigorously vetted, HCPC (or equivalent) registered, highly qualified, experienced, Clinical Psychologists to meet the needs of Flywire and deliver an outstanding wellbeing service.
Our team applied research based approaches, tools and strategies for improving wellbeing and overcoming challenges employees faced including (though certainly not limited to) anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement, work and general stress, work and personal relationships, trauma and chronic health, pain and cancer related concerns for themselves and their families.
To orient the employees to the wellbeing service and put them at their ease, our Clinical Psychologists attended location specific Flywire meetings where they introduced themselves and explained what the service was about, what it could offer, expected outcomes and how the process worked.

To ensure the service was timely and even easier to access than health insurance services, Employees were referred by Flywire Wellbeing representatives, line managers or self-referred with a simple single email. Each employee either chose their preferred ComposurePsychology Clinical Psychologist after viewing profiles online or were matched with a team member expert in the challenges each employee was facing and who was able to converse in the employee’s preferred language.
In line with Flywire’s accounting protocol six pre-approved sessions were made available with flexibility to reduce or increase this based on needs and goals agreed by employee and Psychologist.
Regular weekly yet flexible bookings were made in and out of work hours according to employee preference. Sessions times ranged between 60 and 90 minutes depending on individual, couple or family work. Number of sessions received varied in line with employee wellbeing needs and goals and ranged from 1 to 18. Sessions were delivered online to optimise employees’ time, accommodate hybrid working and because it is proven effective.
ComposurePsychology held all client records and data confidentially on a secure client records system, a platform made for healthcare professionals, used by over 13,000 clinicians, trusted and used by the NHS.
ComposurePsychology provided regular reports to Flywire depicting number of sessions delivered and the high level reason for which the employee sought support (reported with FlyMate consent). An 180 day report showing aggregated anonymous employee feedback about the Wellbeing service was provided to Flywire highlighting Flywire brand, retention and engagement factors. Meetings with Flywire’s Chief Wellness and Engagement Officer were held to review progress, forecast needs and discuss ways to further enhance processes.
