FIRST Canada announces a strategic partnership with Xpert Underwriting

FIRST Insurance Funding of Canada (FIRST Canada) and Xpert Underwriting announced a new partnership today in which FIRST Canada will provide innovative payment solutions for Xpert Underwriting’s brokers.

FIRST Canada will provide Xpert Underwriting’s brokers with its First Connect® service. This service will enable Xpert Underwriting’s broker community to provide a flexible payment solution to their clients when a policy is issued. Xpert Underwriting’s brokers can then provide their clients with payment options including pay in-full, easy monthly payments, and credit card payments with pre-approved terms and competitive rates.

 

 

 

“Xpert Underwriting is delighted to partner with FIRST Canada to provide innovative payment options to the brokers we deal with and, ultimately, to the construction and contracting clients we serve,” said Mithles Lynch, president of Xpert Underwriting.

“Reducing friction in every part of the policy lifecycle is core to our mission, and the team at FIRST Canada shares our commitment to making insurance easy.” 

 

 

 

“We’re pleased to partner with Xpert Underwriting,” said Stuart Bruce, CEO of FIRST Canada. “Providing flexible payment solutions with their policies and enabling a seamless payment process aligns with Xpert Underwriting’s goal to bring the best possible insurance experience to the Canadian insurance market and makes this partnership a great fit.”
