VIV Current Status and History
Viv is a U.S. direct-selling company launched in 2018 around technology designed to reduce recurring household and business expenses. The business is founded by Cami Boehme, an energy-industry executive who previously held senior positions with Crius Energy and its network-marketing subsidiary Viridian Energy.
Viv's primary product is AutoPilot, a bill-management and cost-reduction service. Customers submit recurring bills and Viv attempts to lower their costs either by negotiating with existing providers or, in deregulated energy markets, managing the customer's energy supplier selection. For many negotiated bills, Viv receives a percentage of the savings it generates; its current website states that it generally splits the savings 50/50 with the customer. Energy customers instead pay a subscription fee. Viv also markets community and rooftop solar, insurance-related services, commercial utility auditing, energy-efficiency programs and other cost-reduction services.
Viv also offers subscription-based Lifestyle Services supplied through third-party providers. These have included virtual medical access, technical support, travel discounts, identity and credit-monitoring services and related consumer benefits. Current company materials promote a four-service Pro Membership consisting of OutReach, MediCall, TechRescue and GetAway for $69.99 per month. Viv's terms state that its lifestyle services are supplied through third-party partners while Viv handles customer billing and access.
Viv currently lists enrollment at $99 for a Viv Consultant or $189 for a Pro Consultant, with the Pro option including four Lifestyle Services. Enrollment includes a personalized website, Virtual Office and marketing tools. The company lists an annual renewal fee of $99, with a $19.99 monthly alternative, and offers consultants who cancel within 30 days a refund of 90% of their initial enrollment fee.
