More than 36 million Americans enrolled in tax-advantaged HSAs can utilize these tips to build their personal savings during tax season

DALLAS, March 4, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Improving financial wellbeing is a shared goal for many Americans, with 41% of people wanting to increase their savings this year, and 30% saying they want to spend less, according to a recent survey. A health savings account (HSA) is a powerful financial tool and a proven way to reduce tax liability and support savings, making these accounts a perfect fit for current consumer needs. As we enter the thick of tax season, HSA Store, the first and leading online store to exclusively sell products and services that are eligible with HSA funds, is educating consumers about the tax advantages of enrolling in and using an HSA, and sharing five important HSA facts.

A health savings account (HSA) is a powerful financial tool and a proven way to reduce tax liability and support savings, making these accounts a perfect fit for current consumer needs.

What is an HSA?
An HSA is a tax advantaged account that allows users to set aside pre-tax income to cover qualified medical expenses, thereby reducing their taxable income. HSA funds always belong to the account holder, and unused funds roll over from year to year and can be used in retirement. An individual can enroll in an HSA through an employer-sponsored benefit or individually, as long as they are enrolled in a qualified high-deductible health plan. An HSA can be used to pay for a wide variety of eligible expenses, including everyday healthcare products, copayments, prescription and OTC medications, telehealth services, and more.

5 Ways HSAs Improve Savings and Reduce Tax Liability

Use tax-free HSA funds to pay for products you are already buying. The average American household spends $1,600 a year on products that are HSA eligible. Account holders can save money by using their tax-free HSA funds to purchase these items. There are thousands of eligible items available, from first aid supplies, infant products, allergy relief and OTC meds to high-tech products for self care, skincare, and bodily health monitoring. In addition, HSA Store features eligible telehealth services for mental health, mobility, sleep, menopause, and more. Check out the comprehensive, searchable eligibility list on HSA Store to find the products and services you need.Reimburse yourself for 2024 healthcare expenses. HSA funds do not expire, so account holders who have a lingering medical bill from 2024 can use HSA funds from a previous year to pay off that expense with tax-free funds.Make a 2024 HSA contribution until April 15, 2025 (or your tax filing deadline). Individuals who did not fully fund their HSA in 2024 can still make a contribution up until their tax filing deadline to reduce their 2024 tax liability. For individual HSAs, the 2024 contribution limit was $4,150, while the 2024 family HSA contribution limit was $8,300. Individuals over 55 can contribute an additional $1,000 over the contribution limit to their HSA. This is called a catch-up contribution.Track healthcare receipts and HSA expenses. While HSA expenses do not have to be approved by an employer or HSA administrator, if an account holder is ever audited by the IRS, these expenses may be examined. That’s why it’s important to track healthcare expenses and HSA purchases. HSA Store offers a free HSA Expense Dashboard™ and HSA ExpenseTracker™ app that consumers can use to track receipts and spending from any service provider or retailer.Use your HSA to save for retirement. In addition to paying for healthcare expenses now, because money in the HSA rolls over from year to year, these accounts are an ideal way to save for future healthcare expenses and to reinforce your retirement savings. HSA Store offers planning tools like an HSA Tax Savings Calculator, an HSA Future Value Calculator, and even an HSA 401(k) Maximizer Calculator to support financial planning goals for account holders.

The HSA Learning Center at HSA Store features in-depth articles and interactive learning tools to increase account holder education and help HSA users benefit better from these tax-free saving accounts.

BC Token Reaches New All-Time High Near $0.0179, Extending Its July Rally

Published

on

By

The token set another price record just three days after reaching $0.01561 on July 17. As BC.GAME continues to expand its token ecosystem, $BC is now more than 50% above its April price level.

BELIZE CITY, Belize, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — BC Token ($BC), the ecosystem token of BC.GAME, reached a new all-time high of approximately $0.0179 on July 20, extending a series of price records set since April.

The latest milestone came only three days after $BC reached approximately $0.01561 on July 17. Based on the latest intraday high, the token gained more than 14% from its previous record.

Compared with its April 12 price level of approximately $0.01181, $BC has increased by around 51%. It is also approximately 44% above the $0.01237 level recorded in June. Cryptocurrency prices are highly volatile and may change significantly over short periods.

The latest high is part of a broader price trend that has developed over recent months. During the same period, BC.GAME has continued to expand BC Engine and the wider utility of its token ecosystem.

Launched on April 8, BC Engine is BC.GAME’s token participation and reward system. It is designed to connect eligible activity across the platform with $BC participation and recurring BCD rewards.

Users can earn $BC by participating in supported products and activities on the platform. Eligible tokens are automatically allocated to BC Engine, which distributes BCD rewards to participating users through hourly settlements.

Through the BC Engine interface, users can view their allocated $BC balance, accumulated BCD rewards and other relevant participation data.

BC Engine is also expanding the range of ecosystem contribution nodes and connected products. BC Originals, Croco Gaming and sportsbook technology provider BETBY currently operate as contribution nodes within the BC Engine ecosystem.

A portion of the profits generated through BETBY-supported sportsbook activity is contributed to BC Engine to support BCD reward distributions. This connects the operational performance of the sportsbook with the wider BC Engine reward ecosystem.

Beyond BC Engine, the $BC economic model includes separate daily buyback and burn mechanisms. $BC acquired through daily buybacks is redistributed to players through Instant Bonus, while daily token burns are generated through early unlocks. Users who unlock their $BC less than seven days after it enters BC Engine incur a 1% token burn, while those who remain in the system for at least seven days can unlock their full balance.

BC.GAME will continue introducing additional ecosystem contribution nodes, product integrations and data features, further expanding the practical role of $BC across its wider platform ecosystem.

More information about BC Engine is available at bc.game/bc.

BOC Group Releases ADONIS 19.0 LTS to Bring Smarter Support into Everyday BPM Work

New release improves AI-supported documentation, dashboard personalization, and process mining insight

DUBLIN, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — BOC Group today announced the release of ADONIS 19.0 LTS, the latest Long-Term Support version of their Business Process Management suite. The new release introduces practical enhancements that make everyday process work more intelligent, focused, and easier to manage.

As process landscapes grow, the challenge for organizations is no longer only to document how work should happen. It is to help people use that process knowledge in the moments where decisions, changes, and improvements actually take place. ADONIS 19.0 LTS supports this shift with improvements that bring clearer guidance, more relevant views, and stronger evidence closer to daily BPM work.

A central enhancement is AI Text Refinement within the ADONIS AI Assistant. It enables users to improve descriptions, notes, and documentation directly within ADONIS properties, where the content is maintained. By supporting better wording, tone, structure, and level of detail, the AI Assistant helps teams keep process documentation clear, consistent, and easier to maintain.

AI-assisted process generation has also been improved to provide a stronger starting point for modeling work. Generated process models now include Lanes and automatic object numbering, giving teams clearer responsibilities and a more structured first draft. This makes generated models easier to review, discuss, and refine.

In addition, ADONIS 19.0 LTS extends Configurable Dashboards with new widgets for processes, assets, KPIs, and updates. Users can bring the information most relevant to their role into one focused view, reducing search time and creating a clearer starting point for daily BPM work.

The new Variant Analysis capability in ADONIS Process Mining Essentials further improves process transparency by showing the different paths work actually takes. Based on real execution data, organizations can identify common routes, uncover deviations, and reveal improvement potential with greater confidence.

Together, these enhancements reinforce ADONIS as a platform for decision-grade process transparency. By connecting structured process knowledge with relevant user views and real execution insight, ADONIS 19.0 LTS helps organizations standardize operations, identify improvement opportunities, and build a reliable foundation for automation and AI initiatives.

“With ADONIS 19.0 LTS, we focused on making process work more natural and relevant for every user”, said Tobias Rausch, ADONIS Product Manager. “BPM creates the most value when people can move from process knowledge to action without unnecessary friction. This release brings support, insight, and guidance closer to the moments where work actually happens.”

ADONIS 19.0 LTS is available now. More information is available on the BOC Group website.

Acron Technologies Unveils New Corporate Brand at Farnborough International Airshow 2026

Chalet branding, website, and LinkedIn presence launch together as new corporate identity debuts across the company’s aerospace solutions and defense technology portfolio

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Acron Technologies today unveiled its new corporate brand at the Farnborough International Airshow, marking the company’s first public presentation under its new identity. The launch coincides with the debut of Acron Technologies branding on the company’s chalet at the show, as well as the launch of the company’s website and LinkedIn presence (www.acrontechnologies.com and linkedin.com/company/acron-technologies).

“Farnborough is where our industry comes together, and it’s the right stage to officially introduce Acron Technologies to the market,” said Alan Crawford, Chief Executive Officer of Acron Technologies. “Over the past eighteen months, we have brought together companies whose technologies were built to work alongside each other — in the cockpit, on the battlefield, and in the moments when a space mission or rescue operation depend on getting it right. That strategic fit is what Acron Technologies represents, and it is what will keep making each of these companies stronger as the portfolio grows.”

The Acron Technologies brand unites a portfolio of established companies serving the aerospace, defense, and rescue technology markets. Each portfolio company continues to operate under its own name, with its own products, customers, and brand identity unaffected by the launch. The following companies are part of the Acron Technologies portfolio: Acron Aviation, ACR Electronics, APS Aerospace, NAL Technologies, Trakka Systems, Ocean Signal, Digital Barriers, Alereon, Sightline Intelligence, Flight Data Systems, Artex, FreeFlight Systems, and Skytrac.

While each portfolio company will continue to operate independently, the combination of their technologies creates integrated capabilities unique to the Acron Technologies portfolio. Certified avionics and collision-avoidance systems help keep aircraft safely separated in increasingly crowded skies. Secure positioning and communications technology keeps warfighters connected and oriented even when GPS is unavailable. And distress beacons, thermal switches and rescue technology, trusted by the U.S. Coast Guard and flown on NASA’s Artemis program, help bring people home in the worst conditions. Together, these capabilities span the full arc of a flight, a mission, or a rescue — from keeping people safely in the air to bringing them home when something goes wrong.

“Each of these companies has built its reputation over years, and in some cases decades, of work in their respective fields,” Crawford said. “Our new website and LinkedIn presence give customers, partners, and the industry a single place to see the full breadth of what the Acron Technologies portfolio offers, while every portfolio company keeps its own name and identity in the market.”

About Acron Technologies
Acron Technologies is a mission-critical aerospace and defense technology platform built to create safer skies and protect lives across air, land, sea, and space. Organized around Aerospace Solutions and Defense + Rescue Technologies, the Acron portfolio brings together specialized businesses in avionics, connectivity, surveillance, navigation, rescue, and flight data services, including Acron Aviation, ACR Electronics, APS Aerospace, NAL Technologies, Trakka Systems, Ocean Signal, Digital Barriers, Alereon, Sightline Intelligence, Flight Data Systems, Artex, FreeFlight Systems, and Skytrac. Across defense, and rescue operations worldwide, Acron businesses hold trusted, often sole-source positions that help operators fly safer, move faster, stay connected, and respond when lives are on the line.
