InsurTech companies Ascend and NowCerts have teamed up to provide customers with an integrated solution that combines agent workflow management with payments and premium financing.
Ascend is a modern insurance payments platform that provides automated all-in-one financing, collections, and payables.
NowCerts is a cloud-based insurance agency management system catering to agencies of all sizes.
According to Ascend, the partnership will allow agents to automatically pull customer and policy information directly into Ascend to easily create agency bill payment checkout links with premium financing built-in.
Praveen Chekuri, Ascend co-founder & co-CEO, said, “We’ve been interested in integrating our own platform with an AMS for a while now, and NowCerts just seemed like the perfect fit.
“This level of integration and premium financing workflow process allows us to make agents’ lives better and easier – something we’ve been working on achieving our entire careers. Working with NowCerts brings us one step closer.”
Johnathon Allread, NowCerts COO, said, “Our focus at NowCerts has always been on centralising and connecting the insurance workflow. Payments in one of the areas that has proven to be the trickiest due to its out-of-date infrastructure and processing systems. Ascend is solving this pain point. Collaborating with them and their modern approach to insurance payments is what brings our customers one step closer to a truly centralized insurance experience.”
Ascend recently partnered with Independent Insurance Agents of North Carolina (IIANC), to be its payments and financing platform for its members.
