Built for discretionary mutuals

Four reasons mutuals run on uBind.

A discretionary mutual is not an insurer, and general policy software makes you pretend otherwise. These four capabilities are what a fund actually needs, and they are configuration — not a development project.

01 · Onboarding

From application to membership

Automate the end-to-end workflow for new member applications. The platform handles the risk assessment and contribution calculation your deed requires, so an applicant who meets your criteria gets instant digital membership issuance.

— No manual re-keying
02 · Documents

Precision document generation

Generate membership certificates and protection wordings instantly, built from your fund’s own deed and templates. The wording that goes out is the wording you approved — there is no manual step in which critical legal text can drift.

— Deed-accurate, every time
03 · Oversight

Data-driven oversight

One source of truth for the fund. Total exposure, contribution income, member activity and upcoming renewals on a single dashboard — the numbers your board asks for, without someone rebuilding a spreadsheet the night before.

— Board-ready reporting
04 · Contributions

Configurable contribution logic

Mutuals need contribution structures that insurance rating engines cannot express. Configure rules on member risk profile, claims history and exposure limits, so the fund stays equitable as its membership changes.

— Configured, not coded
The administrative drag

Your members are digital. Your fund admin isn’t.

Most discretionary mutuals run on a membership spreadsheet, a folder of Word templates and a shared inbox. It works until the fund grows — and then every renewal season costs the same again.

Manual fund administration

Spreadsheet register. Word certificates. Contribution maths by hand.

  • ×Applications arrive by email and get re-keyed into a register no one else can see.
  • ×Certificates are built by copy-paste, so a deed change has to be chased through every template.
  • ×Contributions are calculated in a workbook only one person fully understands.
  • ×Exposure is a question that takes days to answer, and the answer is already out of date.
  • ×Renewals are a calendar reminder and a lot of hope.
Digital mutual on uBind

One register, rules-driven contributions, documents that match the deed.

  • ✓Members apply online and are assessed against the rules your fund actually operates.
  • ✓Certificates and wordings generate from the deed, so approved text is the only text that ships.
  • ✓Contribution rules live in the platform, are versioned, and apply consistently to every member.
  • ✓Exposure, contribution income and renewals are on a dashboard your board can read.
  • ✓Every amendment, renewal and termination leaves a full audit trail.
Full membership lifecycle

From application to termination, in one platform.

Onboarding is the part everyone demonstrates. The cost of running a fund is in everything after it — renewals, amendments, terminations, and being able to show a governance committee exactly what happened and who approved it.

STAGE 01

Application submitted

The prospective member applies online, or your team lodges on their behalf. Structured intake fields, supporting documents, no re-keying.

→ Online, self-service
STAGE 02

Discretionary assessment

The application is assessed against the criteria in your deed. Straightforward cases clear automatically; anything outside the rules is referred to your team.

→ Your rules, enforced
STAGE 03

Membership issued

Contribution calculated, certificate and protection wording generated from the deed, and the member gets secure digital access to both.

→ Instant digital issuance
STAGE 04

Renewal & amendment

Renewals run on schedule with contributions re-rated on current exposure. Mid-term amendments are handled in the same register, not a side email.

→ Scheduled, not chased
STAGE 05

Termination & audit trail

Terminations and cancellations are recorded with the same rigour as onboarding. Every action, by every administrator, is stamped and retrievable.

→ Governance-ready
Members see their own certificates, wordings and renewal dates in a self-service portal. NO MORE “CAN YOU EMAIL ME MY CERTIFICATE AGAIN?”
SELF-SERVICE
Contribution logic · configurable

Contributions your deed can actually justify.

A mutual’s contribution is not a premium, and it is not a flat fee. It reflects what each member brings to the pool. uBind lets you express that as rules, apply them consistently, and show your working.

Contribution structures differ from fund to fund, and they change as the membership changes. Configure them against member risk profile, claims history and exposure limits — and keep every version, so you can always show which rules produced a given member’s contribution.

Risk-profile factors
Build factors from the attributes your fund actually underwrites on — occupation, turnover, location, protection limits, member tenure.
Claims history & tenure
Reflect a member’s own history in what they contribute, and reward members who have been in the pool longest, without maintaining a side spreadsheet.
Exposure limits & caps
Enforce per-member and whole-of-fund exposure limits as part of the calculation, so the fund cannot quietly take on more than the deed allows.
Versioned & auditable
Every contribution is stamped with the rule version that produced it, so a governance committee can reconstruct any decision after the fact.

Fund oversight

See the whole fund on one screen.

Governance depends on knowing where the fund stands right now — not on a report that was accurate a fortnight ago. Exposure, contribution income, member activity and upcoming renewals, live.

Total fund exposure, live
Aggregate exposure across every member and protection class, updated as memberships are issued, amended and terminated. The figure your board asks for is the figure on the screen.
Contribution income & renewals
Contribution income by period and by class, with the renewal pipeline alongside it — so you can see what is due, what has lapsed, and what is at risk before the season starts.
A full audit trail behind it
Every number on the dashboard traces back to the member records and rule versions that produced it. Governance questions get answered from the system, not from someone’s memory.
Connected to your finance stack
An open API connects the fund to your accounting platform, CRM and external risk tools, so member and contribution data stays consistent instead of being reconciled by hand each month.
