Payment Integration Manager, also referred to as PIM, is the online system powered by NWPS, Eder’s retirement plan recordkeeper, where you will process payroll and manage retirement contributions. It’s the system we use to better ensure the data is accurate when compared with sending paper forms and emails. 

To get started, you will need to submit a PIM user setup and virtual training request. Upon submitting the request, NWPS will contact you within two business days. Once you’ve secured login credentials and completed training, you’re ready to use the platform.

You will use the PIM platform to: 

  • Enroll/terminate employees 
  • Update salary changes 
  • Set up/edit/terminate ACH contributions and payments 
  • View your church’s payment history 
  • Cancel recurring payments 
  • Change the bank account information 

Need more help? Refer to the PIM FAQ document for step-by-step instructions. 

When you enroll a new employee and set up their contributions, the next step is to send them the Eder Retirement Plan welcome letter so they can access their account online via the member portal. The employee should email the Eder Member Service Center, powered by NWPS, at erpservicecenter@nwpretirement.com or call 866-723-0001 if they have questions. 

Whenever there are organizational or staff changes, a new authorization form must be submitted. Once completed and signed by all parties, you should return the form to Eder via a secure manner, such as encrypted email, fax, or regular mail along with a supporting document that lists the name and title of the person signing at the bottom of the first page. Common examples of supporting documents include board meeting minutes, denominational directories, and corporate resolutions. Contact Eder Financial for a secure email option. 

Other asset management forms can be found
at
 ederfinancial.org/Asset-Management-Forms
and planned and deferred gift forms 
at ederfinancial.org/Deferred-Gifts. 

Questions? Email oi@eder.org or call 847-695-0200. 

Completing enrollment for Eder Health and Life Benefits requires participation from both the administrator and the

You can also mail the forms to Eder Health and Life Benefits, 1505 Dundee Ave., Elgin, IL 60120. You can also fax the forms to 847-742-6336. 

 Administrators receive the organization’s monthly bill details via email. If you do not receive the monthly bills, you may need to update the contact information we have on file for you by emailing the correct contact information to clientservices@eder.org. 

Completed by the employee 

Once Eder completes the registration, we will notify the employee and instruct them on the next steps. The employee will need to create an account with our strategic partner, Milliman, at ederfinancial.mybenefitchoice.com to select their benefit choices. Only the employee can enroll in benefits with Milliman. Refer the employee to the How to Enroll Guide for step-by-step instructions.
