SageSure partners with Whisker Labs

SageSure, an MGU focused on catastrophe-exposed markets, has partnered with Whisker Labs to offer Ting sensors and fire prevention services to eligible Louisiana policyholders.

The Ting plug-in sensor and app help detect hazards that lead to electrical fires within a home’s wiring, devices, and utility equipment. If a hazard is identified, the Ting sensor app alerts the homeowner and guides them through the repairs needed to address the issue.

SageSure policyholders will receive a free Ting plug-in sensor, the Ting app, up to three years of free fire prevention service, and a $1,000 credit for labor repair costs of Ting-identified hazards. SageSure plans to expand the program to more states soon.

“SageSure is proud to enhance our suite of solutions with an electrical fire prevention program proven to make homes safer and more resilient. Fires are one of the most costly and devastating events a homeowner may face, and approximately 20% of SageSure’s fire claims are the result of electrical hazards. We look forward to partnering with our producers to help our policyholders reduce electrical fire risk and protect their families.” – Paul VanderMarck, Chief Technology and Innovation Officer at SageSure.

“We’re thrilled to partner with SageSure to bring Ting to even more homes. Ting has already been deployed to over 1 million homes and saved over 20,000 policyholders from potentially devastating fires. This partnership not only helps keep families safe but also strengthens the relationship between policyholders, their insurance providers, and insurance representatives by offering a preventative, technology-driven solution.” – Bob Marshall, Whisker Labs Co-Founder and CEO.
