Mygate partners with Acko to deliver smarter insurance
Date: 22 May 2024
Mygate,
a living experience tech company, has recently received its aggregator license
from the Insurance Regulatory Development Authority of India (IRDAI) to make insurance policies available
to its users. This follows the strategic partnership that Mygate entered with Acko,
the tech-first insurer.
Through
this partnership, both companies endeavor to deliver intelligent digital
protection solutions tailored to the evolving needs of the 4 million households
on the Mygate app. By integrating Acko’s insurance services seamlessly into its
platform, Mygate aims to bring insurance closer to home, making it hassle-free
and easily accessible to its users. To begin with, the partnership will enable
Mygate users looking to opt for car insurance to have easy access to policies
at exclusive prices, timely reminders for renewal, and instant paperless
claims.
Mygate
has also introduced the unique ‘auto insurance reminder’ feature, powered by
cutting-edge technology. The feature will enhance the overall customer
experience on the app and enable users to benefit from the vast variety of
protection offerings.
To
further strengthen the partnership, the companies will look at expanding the
product offerings beyond motor insurance, adding health and life insurance to
the portfolio with solutions such as outpatient department (OPD) covers and RWA
liability insurance. This will provide holistic insurance solutions powered by Acko
to the Mygate ecosystem.
Abhishek
Kumar, Co-founder & CEO, Mygate, said, “Our commitment to improving living
experience via technology is strengthened by the ability to offer tailor-made
insurance for the gated community residents. We are already seeing a very
positive reception to the launch and availability of car insurance via the
Mygate app, and are excited to uncover what the future holds, as we continue to
bolster this partnership and innovate
with ACKO."
"At
ACKO, it’s our constant endeavor to create for the customer. Together with
Mygate, we are working at redefining protection beyond auto insurance, and
trying to solve for every aspect of the customers’ lives with our holistic
approach. This partnership will help us leverage the potential of our
tailor-made solutions and establish us
as an integral part of the everyday lives of many million households,” said
Animesh Das, CEO, ACKO General Insurance.
