Ascend, a comprehensive accounting operations platform for insurance, and commercial insurance managing general agent (MGA) and wholesale brokerage QuoteWell have joined hands to enhance MGA accounting and payments workflows.

This collaboration aims to modernise the quoting and binding processes for non-admitted policies, providing agents with a more efficient and integrated experience.

It will integrate technology-driven solutions, with agents benefitting from a seamless connection between QuoteWell’s submission and quote process and Ascend’s automated payment and financing tools.

Ascend co-CEO Andrew Wynn said: “By partnering with QuoteWell, we provide MGAs and wholesalers the solutions to not only make it easier to work with trading partners but also allow them to scale effectively with full transparency into their financial operations.”

Agencies utilising the joint solutions will gain streamlined workflows, enabling them to manage submissions and payment options through one unified platform.

The alliance is expected to significantly reduce turnaround times for the submission-to-binding process.
