Addition Option 1: Single user add option

The Single User Add feature is ideal for when you have only a few employee data to add. There are two ways to which you can use this feature:

Option 1.1: Invite New Member by sending an onboarding mail.

The “Invite New Member” feature sends an onboarding mail to the employee’s email id, which then integrates their details into the Nova portal.

To use this feature:
  1. Log in to the Nova Portal using your ID and Password and go to “Admin “ option at the top of your home page.

  2. Click on “Team” option. You can see this on the left side of your admin dashboard screen.

  3. Create New Member.

  4. The first option will be a drop down, from which you should select “Invite new member by providing email and name (sends onboarding mail)”

  5. Fill out the details of the employee to send invitation mail to.

    • Note: “Employee Job Grade” refers to the graded sum insured amount on their insurance policy. It need not be filled if sum insured is not graded.
  6. Invite Member.


Once an invitation is sent to the employee’s email id, they will receive an onboarding mail, which they have to click and enter their details. The employee should follow these steps for onboarding:

  1. Open email and click on “Activate Coverage” to activate their policy and set up portal ID and password.
  2. Enter employee details.
  3. If the employee has dependents to cover from his insurance, proceed with “Add Dependents”, if no dependents are covered, proceed with “Continue without adding dependents”.
  4. Enter emergency contact details and continue.

Option 1.2: Add New Member by providing details on their behalf.

You can use this feature when you want to add employee data manually.

To add a new employee data:

  1. Log in to the Nova Portal using your ID and Password and go to “Admin “ at the top of your home page.

  2. Click on “Team” option. You can find this on the left side of your admin dashboard screen.

  3. Create New Member.

  4. The first option will be a drop down, from which you should select “Create new members by providing details on their behalf.”

  5. Fill out the details of the employee you want to add.

    • Note: “Employee Job Grade” refers to the graded sum insured amount on their insurance policy. It need not be filled if sum insured is not graded.
  6. Create Member.


TIP: Use the “Bulk Upload” feature if you have more than 10 employee data to upload.
