FAQ’s
What is Affinity Insurance?
Affinity insurance is where a business forms a scheme with an insurance provider or broker to provide insurance products to its customers under the affinity group’s brand name. Affinity insurance can be a more cost effective option for members as the affinity scheme combines the risks, thus reducing the cost of cover. An affinity scheme is bespoke to the risk areas of the members, hence offers protection that more generic policies may not.
What is an affinity group?
An affinity organisation is often created around a shared passion, interest or hobby, to which individuals or businesses can become a member of. Some of examples of affinity groups include trade associations, charities, membership organisations and franchise networks.
What are the benefits of affinity insurance?
Offering your members an insurance solution that is designed purposely around their interests will help enhance your brand, reputation, increase member retention, as well as member advocacy. Affinity insurance can also create an additional revenue stream for your organisation through the introduction of a commission structure.
