Peppermint® qualifies as a retirement option for Delaware.

Delaware Just Mandated Retirement!

Delaware Just Mandated Retirement!

As of October 15, 2024 any business with five or more employees who have been paid more than $5,000 in the calendar year is required to have employer-sponsored retirement benefits.

In Delaware, nearly 150,000 workers lack access to retirement savings through their workplace. Peppermint401k is bridging this gap by providing accessible retirement savings solutions.

What is a Pooled Employer Plan?

Simplified and Cost-Effective

Pooled Employer Plans (PEP) enables organizations to join forces with other employers, pooling resources to create a more affordable and streamlined retirement plan. By reducing individual administrative burdens, our PEP makes it easier for businesses to offer valuable retirement benefits to their employees.

We handle the administration.

Peppermint® handles all the administrative tasks, from audits to risk management and compliance reviews, so you can focus on your business without expending valuable resources.

Maximize Your Savings with Tax Credits

Peppermint’s PEP setup could earn you up to $15,000 in tax credits over three years. Plus, enjoy additional tax credits for matching employee contributions, up to $1,000 per participant.
