APIs:
The Digital Bridge
An Application Programming Interface, API, is a foundational technology that enables businesses to integrate data and capabilities automatically without building from scratch, making it possible to embed external services and data directly into existing workflows.
What is Our Boat Insurance API?
Integrating Insurance into the Financing Sales Workflow
Our API allows financing partners to offer instant boat insurance quotes at the exact moment a customer is ready to close on a loan. Insurance becomes part of the financing journey, not a separate step.
Why It Matters
- Reduce friction and accelerate deal closings
- Meet insurance requirements without delaying loan approval
- Embed real time quoting directly into your lending system
- Ensure pricing accuracy based on current underwriting rules
How it works:
- Loan consultant sends boat and customer data to Ahoy! with the press of a button from the loan origination system
- Ahoy! instantly underwrites the risk and generates a quote using the customer and boat information from the loan origination system
- The customer receives a secure link to the quote by email, reviews options, customizes coverage, and binds online
- Upon binding, your company is automatically added as lienholder, and confirmation is sent
Empowering Boat Dealers
Ahoy!’s API allows boat dealers to integrate insurance quoting directly into the sales process, reducing friction and helping customers complete their purchase faster.
The result
- Insurance is offered at the right moment in the sales journey
- No redirects to external sites
- Faster closings and improved customer experience
How it works:
- The sales consultant sends boat and customer data to Ahoy! with the press of a button from the sales system
- Ahoy! instantly generates a quote and emails the customer a secure link to the quote
- The customer reviews, customizes, and binds online at their convenience
- Confirmation is sent once the policy is issued
Enabling Digital Marketplaces
How it works:
- Ahoy! issues a unique link (URL) for your marketplace
- You embed that unique link in a “get insurance” button/s and Calls To Action (CTAs) within the marketplace – no technology knowledge needed
- When visitors click on the button/CTA they get redirected to the Ahoy! digital sales funnel – the link allows attributing the lead to your company. The digital funnel could be rebranded under your brand if so desired
- You get access to an analytics portal and sent monthly reports with details about all traffic that came from your systems and website
Digital Boat Marketplace operators can differentiate their service by offering immediate insurance solutions at the point of sale and allowing customers to view insurance costs alongside the purchase price of the boat.
