Members will now have access to insurer's digital insurance platform
Skipton Building Society has partnered with insurtech provider Uinsure to enhance home insurance accessibility for its members.
Skipton members will now have access to Uinsure’s digital insurance platform, which generates Defaqto 5 Star-rated quotes from a panel of top UK insurers. The platform automatically selects the option offering the best value based on members’ needs.
Uinsure has expanded rapidly in recent years, forming partnerships across the banking, building society, and financial intermediary sectors. With this agreement, Skipton becomes the fourth top-10 UK building society to work with Uinsure, joining a growing number of financial institutions leveraging the company’s technology.
Skipton’s adoption of the insurtech firm’s technology reflects the growing demand for digital solutions in the insurance market, with the new collaboration also aiming to simplify the process of securing insurance.
“At Skipton, we’ve always focused on creating a better future for our members, making sure they have the tools and support to navigate life’s important milestones,” said Umera Patel, product lead for partnerships at Skipton Building Society.
“Our partnership with Uinsure represents a continuation of this purpose, as we work together to provide straightforward, affordable, and reliable home insurance. We’re now looking forward to delivering this new and simplified way of accessing quality insurance to our members.”
Lauren Bagley, chief distribution officer at Uinsure, meanwhile highlighted the shared values between the two organisations.
“Skipton Building Society has a proud heritage of serving its members with integrity and care, and we share their commitment to creating a positive impact on customers’ lives through technology that simplifies some of life’s essential tasks – like arranging insurance,” she said.
“This partnership is the latest example of the trust that leading financial brands have placed in our team, and we’re excited to support Skipton in delivering on its promise of exceptional value for its members.”
