“This partnership has brought global recognition to a South African business and we welcome the insights that Greenlight Re Innovations will introduce to the platform,” said Van Niekerk.

Simon Burton, CEO of the Nasdaq listed Greenlight Re said Click2Sure’s platform enables a “radical transformation” of customer experience and a cost-effective way to deliver insurance products to under-served marketplaces.

Guasco pointed out the insurtech has signed up several clients including SA companies Takealot, Guardrisk, Pricecheck and Hyperli, as well as international giants Uber and Xiaomi.

“When you are dealing with global retailers, financial services companies and mobile networks, they don’t want to sell your product, they want to sell their own or that of big insurers. In that instance, we act as the white-label partner. We provide an insurance platform that enables their offering to be digital,” he explained.
