Qover overview

Qover provide an insurance-as-a-service platform offering digital white label insurance products (embedded insurance) to providers via open API’s.

The B2B2C enables insurers to integrate their own offerings with Qover’s digital products, which the venture develops and prices themselves. They are a Lloyd’s cover holder. Its first product, Motor GAP, protects a customer’s car from depreciation for up to 5 years. It also offers travel insurance, rider accident & liability insurance, and rent guarantee insurance.

It has developed income protection, professional liability, personal accident and home rent insurance products. In October 2017 Qover announced it was entering a strategic partnership with Munich Re for these products, having previously already been backed for Lloyd’s.

Any business can integrate Qover’s insurance products through its open APIs, including car insurance, travel insurance, rental insurance for landlords, and rider insurance for couriers in the gig economy.
