New Company Offers Enrollment Solution
With ijoin, participants are led through a personalized decision-making process via mobile Web technology, according to a press release. The process includes a secure, encrypted mobile Web portal which can be customized for DC providers and plan sponsor clients.

- Help participants make the right choices
- Increase participant contributions and rollovers into DC plans
- Provide documented results for plan fiduciaries
- Increase plan sponsor and participant satisfaction
- Provide a unique competitive advantage to increase sales.
The release said a number of pilots are scheduled for large plans in March 2009.
