Event and tenant insurance will be the first integrations available to partners, with more coverages to come later this year.

Today, Duuo by Co-operators announced the launch of its first embedded insurance API for partners. This advanced integration is designed for Canadian businesses looking to enhance their customer experience by embedding the insurance purchase journey directly into their website, app, or platform.

Duuo Event Insurance will be the first product launched in this new embedded format, providing event hosts with the option to book a venue and secure event coverage in one seamless experience.

Powered by Co-operators, the launch of this platform leverages over 75 years of insurance expertise and best-in-class technology.

“This new journey we’re embarking on rapidly expands our ability to allow our partners to grow and differentiate themselves in their own market, on their own terms. It also encourages Canadian businesses to think about how an embedded insurance solution can add value to their offerings.” said Steve Phillips, Executive Vice-President, Emerging Business Models,
Co-operators. “We’re flexible in our approach and I think that's the greatest value here — we're listening, adapting, and providing solutions that our partners and their customers will both benefit from.”

Apart from the simplicity and ease with which platform partners can now offer their clients insurance, each policy, underwritten by Co-operators, is designed to provide quality coverage that clients can rely on.

Following event insurance, Duuo by Co-operators will launch their tenant insurance API allowing platforms to seamlessly embed tenant insurance coverage into their existing user journeys.

Viler Lika, founder and CEO of PropTech platform SingleKey, is excited about integrating the tenant insurance API into their platform. “As innovators in the rental market, the ability to embed tenant insurance directly to our platform by leveraging a simple API makes our offering to landlords and tenants that much more thorough and compelling,” said Lika. “The opportunity to offer this service provides us with a unique value-add while our clients enjoy an enhanced rental experience. Partnering with Duuo by Co-operators is really a win-win for our customers and for our company.”

Duuo by Co-operators is ready to partner with PropTechs, FinTechs, smart home platforms, event platforms, small business platforms and more. Visit partnerships.duuo.ca to learn more.
