What BBZ Aid and Advice Center does

BBZ Beihilfe- und Beratungszentrum GmbH (BBZ Aid and Advice Center) is a German regulated-services provider founded circa 1998 and headquartered in Bad Dürkheim, Rhineland-Palatinate. Operating as a subsidiary of SINC GmbH, BBZ specializes in processing Beihilfe (public-sector health subsidy) claims on behalf of 419 Dienststellen — public-sector employers, church institutions, and social welfare organizations — covering nine distinct subsidy-law frameworks including Bundesrecht, multiple state-level regulations, and church-specific agreements. The company processes approximately 129,000 subsidy applications annually with a team of 70 employees and benefit experts.

BBZ's core technology stack is the proprietary Bebis.net SaaS platform, a subsidy processing system with semi-automated application handling, integrated calculation logic, automated compliance verification, and continuously updated regulatory content. This is complemented by the Beihilfe-App (mobile app for iOS/Android) and Beihilfe-Portal (web portal) that allow benefit recipients to scan receipts and submit applications digitally, plus the AMNOG pharmaceutical rebate processing module. The company is ISO 9001:2015 certified and offers specialized integrations with payroll systems, banking software (SEPA), and rebate systems.

BBZ monetizes through three primary streams: (1) Beihilfe-Prozess-Outsourcing (BPO) — full, partial, or interim managed services for subsidy processing on a fee basis; (2) Bebis.net SaaS licensing — recurring subscription revenue from benefit-granting employers using the platform via joint or dedicated tenants; and (3) Beratung und Schulungen — consulting, training, and workshops on subsidy law. GTM combines B2B enterprise sales to Dienststellen (with named account representatives) and a B2C self-service channel for individual benefit recipients through the free Beihilfe-App and Portal. All operations are domestic to Germany.
