How does Surer help me get multiple quotes faster?
Intermediaries can create a customised proposal just once and specify who and how they want to get a quote. This could be directly from their principals or from other agents within their referral circle of whom have other principals. Surer then sends this proposal to all of these parties with one click of a button. After which, any of these parties will be able to quote on your proposal. Intermediaries will be notified when a quote on the proposal is made. Surer also works with multiple insurer partners to offer intermediaries access to products that produces quotes instantaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions (for Insurers and Underwriters)
How can Surer help me, as an underwriter be more efficient?
Instead of having to interact with your General Insurance agent via plain-text email and sieving through threads of conversation to remember what you have quoted, Surer now allows an agent to send you a proposal via the system to your email address.
Once you receive this email, you will find a secured link with the full details of the proposal.
You can now just quote for this proposal directly via the secured link by filling up only the most important fields i.e. quote on premium, excess and deductibles, commission for the agent and related clauses.
The beauty of doing so is then that
- this will allows you to keep track of your quotes via this secured link i.e. you just need to refer to this specific email to see what you have quoted for this particular proposal
- you can also make changes to the quote even after you have sent it
- you do not have to email or whatsapp or call the agent to inform him of anything – he will get it in his Surer system
I have quoted on the proposal – what next?
Since you have quoted on a proposal in a structured manner i.e. via Surer, you will now be updated via email automatically should the agent action on your quote i.e. when the agent’s client accepts or reject your quote.
You now do not have to worry or follow-up on proposals you have quoted for, not knowing if the quote has been accepted or not.
Will I be able to trace back on a quote I previously made, regardless if it has been accepted or not?
Yes. The beauty of the Surer system is such that once you have submitted a quote via the secured link, this link will always be accessible to you. It will show you the latest quote that you have sent to the agent.
What do I have to do, to start using Surer as an Underwriter?
Nothing!
The agent who works with you will be the one indicating and creating the proposal for you to quote. Should you receive an email from the agent, all you have to do is to go in to the secured link within this email to start quoting!
