Swedish micro insurance provider Omocom announces its cooperation with Van Ameyde Scandinavia for claims handling. Omocom’s mission is to make sharing safe for owners and renters alike. By utilising the confidence that insurance provides, the aim is to reduce thresholds and encourage people to enter the circular economy, reapling the benefits of more circular consumption patterns.
With a flexible API the appropriate insurance coverage for each and every sharing transaction is created, meeting the needs of a growing number of users worldwide.
Claims arising from insured risks need handling and omocom has chosen to partner with Van Ameyde. “Working with Van Ameyde is a huge benefit for us as we need to be prepared to increase our capacity when scaling our product to new geographies. Van Ameyde’s knowledge of and experience in handling complicated claims will provide us with the tools needed to facilitate this journey,» says Emanuel Badehi Kullander, omocom’s co-founder.
At present, omocom focuses on peer-to-peer sharing, but the company wishes to expand to other sectors of the circular value chain, such as b2b and b2c renting models. The vision is to become a natural part of the circular economy. Van Ameyde will ensure that omocom’s insurance liabilities are met.
