Bullish Cup & Handle on WAGEWageWorks, Inc. (WAGE) provides consumer-directed benefits programs (CDBs) to employees to save money on taxes in the United States.

It offers flexible spending accounts (FSAs) that are employer-sponsored CDBs, which enable employees to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible healthcare expenses, such as co-pays, deductibles, and over-the-counter medical products, as well as vision expenses, orthodontia, medical devices, and autism treatments.

The company also provides FSA programs for dependent care plans that allow employees to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible dependent care expenses, which include child, day, adult, and elder care expenses.
