Pet InsurTech Kanguro, which is on a mission to reinvent the world of pet insurance, has launched its offering in Florida.

Kanguro launched in 2021 as the only InsurTech offering an end-to-end customer experience that is 100% bilingual (Spanish and English) and 100% digital.

The company’s vision is simple: to modernise the insurance experience for Spanish-speaking Americans. Kanguro is already selling its pet insurance policies and will soon launch a renters insurance product.

Having launched in 17 states, Kanguro now offers a health insurance and wellness plan for dogs and cats which differentiates itself in its coverages and offers and experience for pet parents that is completely bilingual (Spanish and English).

Currently, veterinary costs in the US are high and usually come unexpectedly, Kanguro Insurance has set out to solve this problem by giving its customers a platform which is easy to understand, buy and use the pet health policy.

According to Kanguro, the expansion into Florida gives millions access to affordable pet care. The 100% digital world of Kanguro is always available in people’s pocket through the super APP but is also backed by a team of real people helping customers.

Andres Mishaan, co-founder, said, “Working in insurance all of my professional life has opened my eyes to the immense opportunity to improve the consumer experience within the financial services industry. The concept of having a product that can be easily used in people’s everyday lives – especially when done with technology and backed by a team of real people is incredibly valuable.

“We created a pleasant experience that does not take time out of customers day and that is very similar to other e-commerce or online banking experiences which people are already accustomed to. It’s the new and improved way to purchase and use everyday insurance which is not just there for emergencies.”

Last year, FinTech Global sat down with Kanguro and Cloud Insurance, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) insurance technology developer, to discuss the companies recent partnership and ambitions for the pet insurance market.
