What you can offer

Four ways to ship travel insurance

Start with a link in an afternoon, or embed a full quote-and-bind flow: same cover, same commissions, your level of integration.

API

Insurance API

Quote, compare and bind travel insurance programmatically over REST, with webhooks and a sandbox. In private beta: request early access to drop protection into any checkout or app.

  • Real-time quotes from multiple insurers
  • Bind and issue policies via API
  • Webhooks for renewals and claims status
White-label

White-label widget

Embed the full HelloSafe comparison and checkout under your own brand. Your colours, your domain, our engine, no redirect, no drop-off.

  • Your branding, themeable UI
  • Hosted page or embedded iframe
  • Mobile-ready, multi-language
Checkout

Checkout add-on

Offer booking protection as an add-on at the moment of purchase. One toggle at checkout turns intent into attached, high-margin revenue.

  • One-click add at checkout
  • Pre-filled from booking data
  • Attach-rate-optimised flow
No-code

Affiliate links and widgets

The fastest start: tracked links, banners and an embeddable comparison widget. Live today, zero engineering.

  • Tracked deep links and QR codes
  • Drop-in comparison widget
  • Sub-IDs for campaign reporting

How the API works

From quote to commission in three calls

A clean REST API, in private beta. Quote, render, bind. We handle underwriting, compliance, payment and the policy document.

  1. 01

    Request a quote

    Send trip details (destination, dates, travellers) and get ranked offers from multiple insurers in real time.

  2. 02

    Show the best offers

    Render the offers in your own UI, or let our white-label component do it. The traveller picks the cover that fits.

  3. 03

    Bind and earn

    Confirm the policy via the API. The certificate is issued instantly and your commission is tracked automatically.

quote.js
const res = await fetch("https://api.hellosafe.com/v1/quotes", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_…" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    destination: "US",
    dates: ["2026-07-01", "2026-07-15"],
    travelers: [{ age: 34 }],
    trip_cost: 2400
  })
});

const { offers } = await res.json();
// → render offers, then POST /v1/policies to bind

Quote request: REST and JSON. Illustrative example, the quote API is in private beta.

Coverage intelligence

Know what their card doesn't cover

Most travellers think their bank card already covers them, so they decline insurance. It rarely holds up: low caps, long exclusion lists, cover that voids exactly when they claim. Send the first six digits of the card (the BIN) and our API returns what the card really covers, so Coach can expose the gaps and sell the protection they're actually missing. The coverage BIN lookup is in private beta.

  • BIN lookup across hundreds of card products
  • Surfaces the real caps, limits and exclusions, not the brochure
  • Turns "I'm already covered" into a justified upsell
  • Higher attach rate: you sell the gap, with proof

AI-native

Plug travel insurance into your AI agents

  • MCP server: connect Claude, custom agents, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints
  • Typed tools: quote, compare, BIN-check, bind
  • Grounded answers: no hallucinated prices or cover
  • Agentic checkout: the agent completes the purchase

}

// → 3 ranked offers, gaps vs the card's cover, ready to bind

An MCP tool your agent calls, grounded in live HelloSafe data. In private beta.

Ancillary revenue

Up to 20%

commission on every policy you distribute

Travel insurance is one of the highest-margin add-ons in travel. With HelloSafe you earn a recurring share on every sale and every renewal (paid monthly, no threshold) while our insurer partners carry the underwriting and compliance.

Embedded insurance, answered

The questions partners ask before they integrate.

What is embedded insurance?

Embedded insurance means offering a relevant insurance product inside another purchase journey: for example, adding travel insurance at the moment someone books a holiday. Instead of sending customers to a separate insurer, you surface the right cover in context, by API or white-label, and earn a commission on each sale.

Do I need an insurance licence?

No. HelloSafe is an independent marketplace: our FCA-authorised insurer and broker partners carry the regulated distribution. You surface and sell through our tools; they carry the underwriting, compliance and policy documents.

How long does the API integration take?

The quote-and-bind API is in private beta: in early access, most teams ship a working flow in days to a couple of weeks. Affiliate links and the white-label widget can be live the same day, with no engineering.

API or white-label, which should I choose?

Use the API when you want full control of the UI and the data; use the white-label widget when you want HelloSafe's optimised flow under your brand with minimal build. Many partners start with the widget and move to the API later.

Which countries and travellers are covered?

Cover spans 190+ destinations with visa-compliant medical certificates accepted by embassies (Schengen, US, Canada, India, Thailand, Australia and more), in multiple languages and currencies.

How do commissions and payouts work?

You earn up to 20% commission on every policy, plus a recurring commission on renewals. Payouts are monthly with no threshold, tracked in your partner dashboard.

Can I see what insurance a bank card already includes?

Yes. Our BIN API takes the first six digits of a card and returns the travel cover bundled with that product (medical, cancellation, rental, baggage and more) across hundreds of card programmes. Coach uses it to recommend only the cover your customer is actually missing.

Do you support AI agents and MCP?

Yes, in private beta. HelloSafe runs an MCP server that exposes quoting, comparison, BIN-check and binding as typed tools your LLM or agent can call, so a copilot or chatbot can recommend, and even complete, an insurance purchase, grounded in live data rather than guesses. Request early access from your dashboard.
