Many direct appointments with insurers require insurance agents to commit to long contracts and deliver on an agreed number of sales. To address this, InsuranceBee designed the onboarding and management process to be streamlined and frictionless, meaning that agents can expand their customer base in a fast and hassle-free way, at no cost to them.
Iain Hatfield, President, InsuranceBee stated: “Independent agents have long struggled to grow their business via direct appointments with top-rated insurance carriers, who want to tie them into long-term contracts and production quotas, at a high cost to the agent. Recognizing this, InsuranceBee has developed a solution with Hiscox to offer a wholesaler program that provides instant access to an A-rated insurance company, at no cost to the agent.”
Meghan Mueller, Assistant Vice President, Partnership Strategy Execution at Hiscox USA added: “Agents have been transacting through our portal partners for a decade. Hiscox has enjoyed a long-standing successful direct-to-customer integration with InsuranceBee, and we look forward to expanding our partnership with them in this new wholesale structure.”
Alongside the launch of the portal, InsuranceBee has an affiliate program, enabling agents to earn referral fees for every quote, with no limits on the number of referrals an agent makes.
