Mustard Underwriting, an agency specialising in providing insurance solutions to the sharing economy and digital marketplace, has partnered with Ohio-based Battleface.

Battleface is known for designing travel insurance products, and has already gained traction in the UK, Europe, US and Canada through its API-driven platform, which partners use to embed travel insurance products within their purchase path.

"We’re thrilled to partner with Mustard Underwriting and bring our customisable API partner product to Australia,” Battleface MD Australia Matt McLellan said.

“By equipping our partners with the technology to unbundle travel insurance and tailor the product to suit their clients' needs, we're able to collaborate to bring a targeted solution which will benefit travellers Australia-wide."

As previously reported by insuranceNEWS.com.au, the underwriting agency launched earlier this month with a focus on the sharing economy, and backed by a Lloyd’s syndicate.

“We are very focused on providing holistically, the right insurance solutions to our customers,” Jon Calverley, Founding Partner and Global Head of Partnerships at Mustard Underwriting said.

“Battleface offers an incredibly competitive product that allows for easy integration into a customer user journey.

“The Battleface team have been extremely aligned at designing tailor-made product solutions, to meet the different needs of our customers. It was also incredibly important for us to find a partner that prides itself on claims management and Battleface are in our opinion, best in class.”
