Lively has given me the opportunity to…grow my money

Lively has given me the opportunity to invest my funds at Schwab (well first TDA). With a full range of investments. Set them aside until retirement and it has allowed that sum to grow nicely.

An easy to navigate website and quality investment choices make Lively the best HSA

I appreciate the ease in which I can navigate the website to make deposits, request reimbursements and manage a wide array of quality investment options. It is simple to upload receipts so records are all in one place. I feel confident my data is secure with Lively due to the security features in place to login.

Problem entering expenses

I would have given 5 stars but for issues with the app. Almost every time I try to add an expense for future reimbursement, the process fails. The app will ask me to upload an image before I've entered any info about it. I then get kicked out and have to start again. This can happen multiple times before the process flows correctly.
