Currently, a limited audience who are in the US and 18+ can use their Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) funds to purchase an annual Headspace subscription. To see if this option is available for you, just head to this page. If payment via HSA/FSA is available, you will see it listed as a payment checkout option.
Once you select the HSA/FSA checkout option and add in the requested information, you can select the Continue button. From there, you will be prompted to complete a brief eligibility form. This unlocks the option to use pre-tax health funds for your Headspace subscription, starting with a $0 trial while your eligibility is reviewed.
To qualify, you must be 18 or older, live in the US, and be signing up for an annual plan. You’ll complete a short eligibility form during checkout to receive a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN), which is required by most HSA/FSA plans for mental health app coverage. Qualifying health needs include stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and more. Once approved, your LMN is valid for one year and you’ll be prompted to renew before it expires.
If you do not currently see this option available and you are an 18+ resident in the US, please note that we are currently rolling out this new feature and we would encourage to keep an eye out for this option in the near future.
Please note that this new HSA/FSA checkout option is currently only available for the annual Headspace meditation subscription at this time. To find out more information about using HSA/FSA funds for therapy or clinical care, please view the FAQs HERE and HERE.
