Blitz Insurance partners with Ascend

Wednesday 2 August 2023 09:27 CET | News

US-based Blitz Insurance has partnered with Ascend in order to modernise and expand payment experiences for insurance brokers selling in specialty markets.

Following this collaboration, Blitz Insurance will focus on expanding its payment and financing offerings by opening a new customer segment and providing both direct bill and premium financing into its payment workflow. 

By partnering with Ascend, Blitz Insurance will be given the possibility to offer a direct bill to its clients, in addition to its existing agency workflow. This will enable brokers to decide what billing methods meet their preferences and needs, as well as which one works best for their specialty market. Through the incorporation of Ascend’s products, Blitz Insurance will also be able to grow its footprint of appointed brokers, as well as improve its administrative efficiency by automating the processes that would normally be a large operational undertaking. 

In addition, Ascend will automatically attribute the incoming payments to policies in real-time, in an efficient and secure manner, while speeding up the reconciliation procedure as well. The company is set to modernise the overall payments experience as well, in order to improve the experiences of its brokers, agents, and clients.
