What is a Small Business 401k Plan
Pooled Employer Plans allow small business owners to pool retirement resources with other employers and make retirement plans less expensive and easier to manage.
Why choose a Small Business 401k Plan
Add a Pooled Plan Provider (like peppermint) to the mix and you have an easy and affordable way to offer your employees a retirement plan. It’s something that can go a long way these days in increasing employee satisfaction (and therefore retention), as well as attracting top talent.
Does my business qualify?
Companies of any size can join a Pooled Employer Plan AND employers
starting a new plan may be eligible for SECURE Act tax credits of up to
$15,000 over three years.*
Why should I sign up with peppermint?
With peppermint as your plan sponsor, you can give your employees the
retirement plan options they want without the cost, risk, and administrative
burden of a traditional 401k. Improve employee satisfaction, retention, and recruitment while helping your team save for the future.

401k
Higher costs and admin
Administrative costs are typically higher, and the employer is responsible for more administrative tasks
More risk
The employer is the plan fiduciary and therefore assumes all risk
More tasks
The employer is responsible for plan set up, ongoing plan maintenance, investment selection, and working directly with vendors
Filings, forms, audits, and notifications
Employers are responsible for signing and filing all forms, initiating and funding applicable audits, and notifying employees
Tax Credits
