Quilter’s ambition to leverage industry-leading technology to enhance customer experiences has led to a strategic partnership with insurtech, Uinsure, in a move that will give its advisers more choice when choosing how insurance is offered to their clients.

The partnership marks a significant milestone in Quilter’s mission to streamline operations for its advisers, reducing time and costs while fostering stronger client relationships and boosting productivity.

Through Uinsure’s Adviser Platform, home insurance quotes are generated in as little as 20 seconds, with full applications completed in under a minute.

Advisers can refer clients to Uinsure’s award-winning team, across home and BTL/landlords, as well as specialist and non-standard insurance.

Lauren Bagley, Uinsure’s Chief Distribution Officer, said:

“Our new partnership with Quilter underlines the trust Mortgage Networks place on us to deliver an excellent insurance experience for their members’ clients.

“We continue to be restless in our mission to remove insurance complexity using technology and the simplicity of our integration with 360.net, Quilter’s chosen CRM platform, makes it easy for its advisers to provide a more streamlined and efficient insurance service to their clients.

Charlotte Nixon, Proposition and Distribution Director at Quilter, commented:

“We’re continually looking at how we can enhance our Network’s technology capability. This is another example of our commitment to continuous improvement, which is helping our members to work more effectively and consistently.”

“Uinsure has demonstrated real progression in insurance technology and we believe that by working together we can make insurance a more integral part of the holistic service offered to customers.”

Leading Insurtech, Uinsure, has enhanced its home insurance panel by adding Integra Insurance Solutions. As specialists in the home Insurance market, Integra uses the latest in pricing technology and advanced pricing strategies to provide a competitive, tailored premium for each home.

For intermediary, bank and building society partners, adding to the panel of underwriters for Uinsure’s 5 Star rated home insurance product has many benefits, including the ability to quote more customers through stronger underwriting footprints and increased competitiveness for individual customer risks.

Will Price, Chief Insurance Officer at Uinsure, said:

“We aim to offer a competitive price to every customer who engages with us via our IFA, intermediary, bank, building society and other affinity partners, so we need a strong home insurance panel. 

“Integra adds a lot of value as a data-driven, digitally focused business that’s agile in a constantly changing market and, like us at Uinsure, leverages technology and data to create industry-leading customer experiences. We’re extremely happy to be working with their team, given the natural alignment in our brands’ focus.”

Tony Dixon, Chief Underwriting Officer at Integra, added:

“Uinsure’s commitment to digitise insurance and simplify the customer journey within the mortgage intermediary space aligns with Integra’s proactive data-driven approach to insurance pricing and underwriting.

“Uinsure’s unique distribution and desire to further enhance its product offerings fits perfectly with Integra’s strategic direction of growth, and we’re excited about the future opportunities this brings to both parties.”

Uinsure recruits a further 60 team members after securing new bank, building society, financial intermediary and affinity partnerships

Leading Insurtech, Uinsure, continues its significant growth by welcoming 60 new team members after securing several major partnership deals.

Uinsure’s market-leading technology, which offers partners and their customers access to a panel of the UK’s top insurers through a simplified and multi-award winning journey, proved to be a key differentiator in competitive tender processes.

The Manchester-based company has invested heavily in its digital-first service that allows home and landlord insurance to be embedded by its partners so they can offer personalised cover to their customers as soon as arranging it becomes a need.

Lauren Bagley, Uinsure’s Chief Distribution Officer, said:

“To win these prestigious partnership accounts, particularly in a highly competitive environment, is a tremendous endorsement of the strength of our proposition. The fact some of the UK’s leading banks, building societies and financial intermediaries have chosen Uinsure demonstrates how highly the industry values the technology and customer experience we’ve developed.  

“An expanded scale will only help in securing more competitive premiums for all our partners’ customers, which is another thing we’re working relentlessly on.”

New partnerships demonstrate Uinsure’s growing influence

Uinsure’s latest success highlights the company’s growing influence in the insurance sector, as it continues to provide innovative solutions that have removed the complexities from insurance for both distributors and consumers.

Several of the new partnerships were secured in response to RSA’s recent withdrawal from the UK home insurance market.

Bagley added that the focus will now switch to optimising each partnership. She said:

“It’s the busiest we’ve ever been in terms of onboarding new partners. We’ve found many organisations searching for end-to-end insurance solutions that focus on a digital-first experience and engagement, allowing them to scale in the insurance space and provide great customer value.

“We’re now absolutely committed to supporting our growing network of partners and delivering exceptional customer experiences at every touchpoint.”
