The API-based solution enables seamless tracking of homeowners insurance with Nationwide’s policyholders and Assurant
NEW YORK, April 19, 2022 — Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a leading global business services
company that supports, protects and connects major consumer purchases, and insurance and financial services leader Nationwide, announced the integration of Nationwide’s Insurance Verification Digital Product into Assurant’s patent-pending
HOIVerifySM tracking solution. This integration will allow homeowners with Nationwide insurance policies to have their policy details confirmed securely and conveniently.
“HOIVerifySM is a digital solution that will allow for Assurant to further modernize the complex homeowners insurance process,” said Dave Madigan, president, Lender-Placed Insurance at Assurant. “This innovative, API-based
solution will allow for real-time status updates between Assurant and our partners, creating a seamless experience for everyone.”
Nationwide’s Insurance Verification Digital Product, developed in 2021, is a collection of APIs that first confirm whether a customer is a Nationwide member and then enables insurance details to be verified in seconds.
“Nationwide developed our Insurance Verification technology to drive ease and simplicity for customers - it’s a great fit within Assurant’s HOIVerifySM insurance tracking ecosystem,” said Angie Klett, Nationwide’s
senior vice president of Corporate Development. “We are proud to work with our Assurant partners to collaboratively implement innovative, digital solutions. This is a win for Nationwide agents, policyholders, and Assurant customers, creating
an unmatched customer experience our homeowners demand.”
The integration of HOIVerifySM with Nationwide’s Insurance Verification Digital Product will not only speed up the process of tracking homeowners insurance to verify continuous coverage, but will help Assurant continue its efforts to
implement more sustainable processes enterprise wide. Assurant estimates that HOIVerifySM’s transformative technology can eliminate 27 million sheets of paper, saving 2,250 trees, 70 million gallons of water and 459 million watts
of energy annually, based on 2021 figures.
