Thank you everyone for your inquiries about selling Embrace Pet Insurance policies. We really appreciate your enthusiasm - it's nice to know that so many people are that excited about the future of pet insurance.
So just to let you know, we aren't selling pet insurance through other people for a while yet.
Here's a bit of background on selling pet insurance in the US.
The summary of it is that if you want to sell insurance, you have to be a licensed property and casualty insurance broker and have errors and ommissions insurance.
As well, if we had other people selling insurance on our behalf, we need a formalized contract between the producer (you) and the managing general agent (us), which needs tracking and managing.
Finally, our insurer (Lloyd's of London) has to agree that we can appoint other people to sell their insurance policies.
So, all of the above amounts to the fact that we don't sell through third parties right now. We're focusing on getting our website up for quoting and buying insurance up and running right now and unfortunately, signing up brokers is down the to-do list for now.
We do appreciate your interest though and I'll be sure to let you know though if we get to brokers on the list.
