Quicken Introduces Quicken LifeHub, a Smarter Way to Organize, Protect, and Share Life’s Essential Information

Published

on

An intelligent tool that guides you in organizing life’s important information so you and your loved ones are prepared for the big moments, the everyday moments, and everything in between 

MENLO PARK, Calif., Nov. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Quicken today unveiled Quicken LifeHub, an app designed to help you and your loved ones organize, protect, and share life’s essential information. From day-to-day household management to preparing for emergencies and end-of-life transitions, Quicken LifeHub gives you and your loved ones peace of mind by bringing together financial accounts, medical records, wills and trusts, passwords, and more. Designed by the maker of America’s best-selling personal finance software, Quicken LifeHub provides a simple and secure way for you and your loved ones to organize life’s most important information.

Many people don’t proactively prepare for life’s biggest challenges until it’s too late. In fact, only 30% of Americans have taken steps to safeguard their documents and information in preparation of an emergency or disaster, forcing them to react quickly – often making decisions without access to crucial information or directions from their loved ones. Quicken LifeHub helps you prepare for anything that might come your way – from natural disasters like tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods, to personal and family medical emergencies, to end-of-life preparedness.

“For over 40 years, our customers have trusted us as their partner in managing their finances – an aspect of their lives that is deeply personal and complex,” said Eric Dunn, CEO of Quicken. “Our customers inspired us to create Quicken LifeHub, a natural extension of Quicken that brings their financials together with medical records, estate plans, and more. Our goal is to give people confidence and peace of mind so that they’re prepared for all of life’s events – planned and unplanned.”

With Quicken LifeHub, you and your loved ones have access to a comprehensive and secure platform that can help you navigate a variety of events, such as:

Everyday Events: It can be a daunting task to keep track of essential documents and information. With Quicken LifeHub, you can save birth certificates, social security and ID cards, insurance information, passwords, and more in one place. In addition, you can sync your Quicken Simplifi or Quicken Classic account to automatically keep financial information up to date, including accounts, bills, and tax forms, ensuring you have a comprehensive snapshot of all financial information.

Medical Emergencies: When unexpected medical emergencies arise, it can be difficult to locate necessary information quickly, such as medication details or health records. Quicken LifeHub can store medical information ranging from prescriptions to insurance, and share this information with your loved ones in the event of a medical crisis.

Natural Disasters and Catastrophes: A hurricane, tornado, house fire, or other unexpected event is not only destructive on a large scale but can also lead to the loss of physical documents stored in a desk or file cabinet. Quicken LifeHub ensures your important documents are backed up digitally, and you can also store important information about material assets, such as real estate, vehicles, electronics, and artwork to ensure you’re always prepared for potential insurance claims.

End of Life Preparation: Following the death of a partner, parent, or loved one, family members are faced with navigating a vast amount of logistics and legalese, in addition to grief. With Quicken LifeHub, you can add instructions about funeral and burial plans, save details for obituaries, and store estate planning documents – including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and more – to help make things easier for family members and executors.

With Quicken LifeHub, the household manager has control over what documents and details are shared with other account members. For example, a parent may share important medical and financial details with their children in the event of an emergency, but restrict access to other details. Another essential feature of Quicken LifeHub is the ability to designate information for “after I’m gone.” This ensures critical information is organized and accessible, so loved ones or trusted contacts can quickly step in, know exactly what needs to be done, and have the necessary details to manage important tasks and decisions.

“After my wife’s sister passed away, her son was left with the overwhelming task of managing her estate without any guidance,” said customer Mike Whittaker. “It dawned on us that if something happened to both of us, our sons would have no idea where to start with our finances, contacts, or estate planning information. But then I found Quicken LifeHub, which has allowed us to store all our estate details and assets in one place. This is a really good product, and I highly recommend it. There is a real need for this.”

With an easy-to-use interface, Quicken LifeHub is designed for life’s big moments, everyday moments, and everything in between. The app goes far beyond document storage, guiding you with step-by-step instructions through everything you need to plan for a wide range of scenarios from a lost wallet, to a new job, to evacuation orders. This experience is complemented by Quicken Assist, an AI-powered assistant that provides immediate and highly tailored responses to challenging questions about estate, emergency, or end-of-life planning.

Because privacy and security of personal data are of the utmost importance, Quicken LifeHub incorporates a number of bank-grade security safeguards, including robust 256-bit encryption and multi-factor authentication.

UOB partners Visa to launch new Visa Infinite tiers across ASEAN in landmark multi-market launch of such scale

Published

By

More than 300,000 cardholders will enjoy expanded suite of premium benefits as UOB strengthens its regional leadership in premium payment solutions.

SINGAPORE, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — UOB has partnered with Visa, a global leader in digital payments, to relaunch several card products across its five key markets (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam) under Visa’s newly introduced premium card tiers, Visa Infinite Privilege and Visa Infinite Private.

UOB is progressively upgrading its suite of affluent and high-net-worth (HNW) card solutions to the new Visa Infinite tiers, reinforcing the Bank’s leadership in premium card innovation. With the relaunch, more than 300,000 UOB Visa Infinite cardholders across ASEAN will be upgraded to higher card tiers, giving them access to an expanded suite of premium benefits. All other cardholders will continue to enjoy their existing privileges, with no downgrades across the portfolio. Eligible UOB Visa Infinite cardholders will be notified of their new card tiers via UOB’s official channels from September onwards, with no action required from them.

UOB is currently Visa’s largest card issuer in ASEAN[1] and brings an unparalleled regional footprint and customer base, serving over 8.5 million customers across the region. As the first Visa issuer across ASEAN to execute a launch of this scale across multiple markets, UOB and Visa are setting a new benchmark for regional card offerings, delivering elevated privileges and experiences to affluent cardmembers in the region. This collaboration is timely as affluent spending in ASEAN experiences strong growth. The number of new UOB affluent cardholders[2] grew over 10 per cent year-on-year in 2025, while card billings for this segment surged more than 25 per cent in the same year.

Visa unveiled its refreshed Visa Infinite offering in Asia Pacific on 16 July 2026, reimagined for the evolving needs of today’s affluent consumers. Anchored in a three-tier card suite, the enhanced platform introduces greater flexibility, personalisation and differentiated benefits across the affluent spectrum. In addition to Visa Infinite, the portfolio now includes the newly launched Visa Infinite Privilege and Visa Infinite Private, enabling issuers to deliver more tailored value propositions, experiences and rewards to distinct customer segments within a unified premium framework.

Selected top-tier UOB cardholders across the region will enjoy access to enhanced platform privileges and UOB-exclusive curated experiences, tailored to their respective Visa Infinite tiers. This aligns with UOB’s sharpened customer segmentation approach and enhanced card value propositions, aimed at serving the unique needs of customers by offering exclusive privileges tailored to their lifestyle preferences.

Mr Pratik Bhattacharjee, Head of Group Cards and Payment Products, UOB, said, “As UOB continues to sharpen our customer-centric operating model, we are focused on serving our customers more holistically across the wealth spectrum. Our partnership with Visa marks a significant milestone in this journey, allowing us to deepen our engagement with affluent customers by curating exclusive experiences that money cannot buy. As we continue strengthening our offerings to cater to each customer’s aspirations and lifestyle, our goal is to connect with them through life moments and opportunities that truly matter.”

Mr. T.R. Ramachandran, Head of Products & Solutions for Asia Pacific, Visa, said, “The affluent segment is one of the fastest-growing consumer segments in Asia Pacific, with expectations evolving alongside it. Today’s affluent consumers are seeking experiences that are more personalised, seamless and relevant to their lifestyles. The refreshed Visa Infinite portfolio is designed to meet these changing expectations, and through our partnership with UOB, we are extending these enhanced experiences to affluent customers across Southeast Asia.”

Greater personalisation through tiered privileges

With Visa’s enhanced Infinite tier segmentation, selected cardholders will benefit from more tailored services, differentiated privileges and elevated experiences that reflect their evolving lifestyle needs. This includes access to curated regional and global lifestyle offers as well as premium destination-based travel and dining privileges worldwide as part of the base membership. In addition, selected cardholders will get exclusive access to top-tier concerts and global sporting events like FIFA World Cup™, and reserved entitlements to key lifestyle offerings under Visa Infinite Privilege. At the highest tier, Visa Infinite Private offers bespoke invitation-only experiences highly personalised for ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

Leveraging its deep understanding of affluent customers across the region, UOB will complement Visa’s refreshed benefits with exclusive privileges, curated experiences and value-added offerings tailored to the unique preferences of its cardmembers. For example, selected cardholders will be able to enjoy specially-customised luxury travel experiences and privileged access to curated series of rare timepieces.

Paired with the Bank’s unparalleled regional connectivity, advisory excellence and One Bank ecosystem, this partnership with Visa aligns with UOB’s aim to bring together banking, wealth and lifestyle holistically to all customers. This also furthers the Bank’s ambition to become the Bank of Choice for aspiring customers across ASEAN.
