Mission
Make travel insurance obvious
Everywhere in the world, the same problem: travellers who believe they are covered, only to find out on the day it matters that the conditions don't apply. A medical limit that runs out in hours. An exclusion buried 30 pages deep. A cancellation clause that only applies to half the real-life reasons people actually cancel. HelloSafe was built to change that: compare real limits, expose real exclusions, and connect travellers to real protection from established insurers. Atlas is the B2B layer that lets agencies, blogs, OTAs and platforms worldwide do the same for their own audience, under their own brand.
"Atlas is the tool I dreamed of having when I was searching for the best travel insurance for my clients."

What guides every decision we make
Independence
No insurer can buy a better position on our marketplace. Every policy is evaluated against the same criteria, published and verifiable by anyone. When we list a product, it is because it is good for the traveller, not because it is profitable for us.
Full transparency
Explicit commission model, public scoring criteria, unambiguous programme terms. You know exactly what you earn, how it is calculated, and why. The same clarity we demand from insurers, we apply to ourselves.
Real usefulness, not just apparent
Travel insurance is only useful on the day something goes wrong. Our job is to make sure the cover is real, not just sold. That means refusing to list policies we would not recommend to someone we care about heading out on a trip.
Our story
From comparison to global distribution network
- 19
A team of travel and insurtech specialists, frustrated by a market that collects premiums without truly protecting travellers, decide to rebuild comparison from the ground up. HelloSafe launches with one goal: every traveller should know exactly what they are buying.
- 20
100,000 travellers covered. The pandemic reveals the scale of the problem: millions of people discover their insurance does not cover COVID-related cancellations. HelloSafe updates all listed policy clauses in real time and becomes a go-to reference on cover clarity.
- 22
International expansion across multiple markets, from the UK and Europe to North America and Australia. The conviction holds: the travel insurance opacity problem is universal. So is the solution.
- 24
2 million travellers covered. Launch of Atlas, the B2B platform that lets travel businesses anywhere in the world distribute travel insurance with no broker licence, no claims management, and transparent commissions from day one.
