Let’s talk. We’ll show you how Motivosity makes it easy to launch impactful, flexible perks—no spreadsheets required.

That’s totally up to you! Motivosity lets you create a customized Lifestyle Spending Account (LSA) program around categories like employee wellness, remote work, learning & development, family care, and more. You define the parameters, your team gets the flexibility.
Great question! There is a broad range of ways that you could choose to use Lifestyle Spending Accounts for. The way companies choose to leverage lifestyle spending accounts depends on their employee base, what resonates most with their workforce and supports their company initiatives, mission, and values.
However, there are a few different use cases we see most often! Many employers and Motivosity users frequently use their Lifestyle Spending Account (LSA) program for wellness expenses related to physical health (think gym memberships, fitness classes, app subscriptions, and more).
Big time. With Motivosity, employees access their LSA funds instantly through the ThanksMatters Visa card. That means no out-of-pocket costs, no clunky receipts, and no waiting for reimbursements. Just smooth, simple spending.
Not hard at all. You can launch multiple LSA programs right from the Motivosity platform without major administrative burden—no new vendors, no technical lift, no 12-week implementation. Just a few clicks and you’re live. We make your lifestyle spending account work for you—not the other way around.
Yep! You control how each LSA budget is allocated and can set expense category restrictions based on your company’s goals. Want one team to use it for wellness expenses and another for learning? Go for it.
Support your benefits package by selecting eligible spending categories by program parameters.
You'll definitely need the Motivosity platform to run your LSA program—but if you're new here, we’ll get you up and running fast. You’ll get LSA functionality along with our recognition and rewards platform, all in one powerful experience.
Plus, when you pair employee recognition and rewards with Motivosity's Lifestyle Spending Accounts, you create a compelling and engaging benefits package that keeps your employees happier and longer.
This is such an important question. Lifestyle spending accounts differ from other spending accounts like health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts. There are three main differentiators to focus on when it comes to LSAs, HSAs, and FSAs.
First, they differ in purpose and eligible expenses.
Lifestyle Spending Accounts: Used for general well-being, holistic employee wellness/physical health, and lifestyle-related expenses. Examples: gym memberships, mental health apps, financial coaching, child care, pet care, travel, hobbies, team lunches or activities, commuter benefits, continuing education courses, etc. Not limited to healthcare-related expenses.
Health Savings Accounts: Used strictly for qualified medical expenses (as defined by the IRS). Examples: doctor visits, prescriptions, dental, vision, etc. Part of your health insurance benefits package.
Flexible Spending Accounts: Primarily for healthcare or dependent care expenses. Examples: copays, prescriptions, childcare, elder care. Must use funds within the plan year (or a short grace period).
Second, they differ in treatment as taxable benefits and tax implications.
LSAs: Taxable to the employee (considered taxable income).
HSAs: Triple tax advantage: pre-tax contributions, tax-free growth, and tax-free withdrawals for medical expenses. Remains yours if you leave the company.
FSAs: Contributions are pre-tax, but funds are use-it-or-lose-it (with limited carryover). Not portable.
Third, they differ in flexibility and ownership.
LSAs: Funded and customized by the employer. Highly flexible: employers can choose eligible expenses.
HSAs: Portable—you own it forever. Can invest unused funds. Annual contribution limits set by the IRS.
FSAs: Not portable; owned by the employer. Limited rollover or grace period. Must re-enroll annually.
