Insurance Policies Delivered Via WhatsApp

Future Generali India is delivering policies via WhatsApp for both new and renewal policies. “WhatsApp has wide acceptability and has grown to become a preferred mode of communications. It’s convenient for the customer as he/she gets instant access to the policy document. It is one such app that everyone knows how to use, be it a senior citizen, working professional or a young adult, both in rural and urban areas.” – MD and CEO of Future Generali India Insurance, KG Krishnamurthy.

In addition, the company will also allow the use of WhatsApp for initiating claims and uploading photos and videos of the damage.
