Open and WeMoney - better together
“The WeMoney team and I are absolutely excited to partner with Open and Huddle to offer insurance options to our members and provide them a chance to save time and money on home, contents and car insurance,” says WeMoney Founder and CEO, Dan Jovevski.With a vision to create a frictionless experience for its members to manage their money and optimise their finances, WeMoney’s existing offers include personal loans, car loans and home loans. It now includes insurance - an important aspect of personal financial management.Both Open and WeMoney are driven by community and purpose, “These two values are at the core of what we do,” says Jason Wilby, Co-Founder at Open. “We’re so excited to be partnering with a well-loved brand that shares our vision on making a positive impact. In this case, bringing financial literacy and wellness through providing powerful and simple insurance.”
The Huddle widget - brilliant insurance for financial management platforms
Many consumers wanting to optimise their finances are faced with traditional insurance inefficiencies - including overpaying on premiums, confusing products and hidden fees. In contrast, Huddle offers a smarter, faster and simpler option.“WeMoney is the first of our partners to implement the Huddle widget,” says Wilby. “It’s a great example of how insurance can be easily embedded into any app or website. Embedding insurance in this way gives money-conscious consumers more options to access insurance that works harder for them.”
