Surestart, a local insurtech startup that provides and distributes insurance products has showcased its ability to digitally sell 1 000 insurance policies a day, with only two members of staff working remotely due to Covid-19.
The startup reimagines the delivery process of insurance and collaborates with eCommerce businesses that can provide insurance as an additional revenue stream.

There’s been a marked shift in consumer demand and buying behaviour.
