One80 Intermediaries launches Access One80
One80 Intermediaries , a specialty insurance broker headquartered in Boston, announced that it has relaunched its online portal in partnership with San Francisco-based Surefyre , establishing the infrastructure to offer One80’s extensive products through an enhanced cloud-based distribution channel.
One80 established its online distribution platform with the acquisition of Bigfoot Insurance, allowing retail brokers the ability to quote, bind and issue hard to place insurance policies through bigfootbinds.com. The portal offered bespoke Bigfoot products such as property, casualty, life, personal lines, accident and health, and has been available to 15,000 retail brokers throughout the United States for over ten years. Throughout 2022 the Bigfoot platform, powered by Surefyre, has grown to represent additional One80 products such as Noah Flood coverage, and has now been relaunched as Access One80.
The relaunch was executed in partnership with Surefyre, a configurable portal and underwriting automation platform that minimizes data entry requirements while allowing agents to write business and manage policies with greater efficiency. Together, One80 and Surefyre have ensured that retail brokers currently appointed to the existing platform will not experience any business interruption and will be automatically redirected to Access One80 for ease of use. Further, brokers that wish to be appointed to Access One80 may do so through a brief questionnaire.
“Since One80’s inception, insuretech has been a powerful driver throughout our culture. As we expand our wholesale, program and contract binding capabilities we continue to provide these offerings through Access One80, allowing our retail broker partners a quick and efficient way to access our market leading products.” – Matthew F. Power, President, One80 Intermediaries.
