Take a peek at your UBC perks

As a UBC employee, you and your family have access to exclusive perks and discounts through various providers.

Let's explore a few of the lesser-known perks at UBC. 

On-campus perks 

There are many offers available on-campus which include free admission or discounted rates for some of the wonderful facilities and opportunities. Here are two we thought you may have missed. 

Garden variety

If you are looking to get some fresh air over the summer on the Point Grey campus, consider visiting the UBC Botanical Garden and Nitobe Memorial Garden. Admission is free for faculty and staff, just show your UBC card! 

Additional offers 

Sun Life and Lumino Health 

UBC faculty and staff enrolled in the Extended Health plan are eligible to access discounts through Sun Life’s Marketplace and Lumino Health. These perks are also available for any dependents covered under your Extended Health plan.. 

Simply log in to Sun Life member website and look for the Marketplace and Lumino Health Community options on the main page. You’ll find special offers sorted by a variety of categories – including Aged Care, Pet Health, Fitness, Mental Health, and more – making it easy to access the discounts that are most relevant to you and your family.  

In addition to corporate discounts, Lumino provides health information with articles and podcasts on specific topics, such as mental health, diet and nutrition, and aging and caregiving.

Please note that UBC HR no longer maintains third-party service providers who are not affiliated with UBC as there are more discounts than we can manage and maintain. We also wish to honour that UBC employees support their health and wellbeing in different ways and leave it to each employee to choose the types of services that best fit with their goals and interests.
