Don't take our word for it
Top 5% claims and fraud ratio
“Both the claims and fraud ratio for P&C are in the top 5% of our distribution partners. We could not be happier with Feather’s approach to risk selection. ”
Dr Mark Ortmann, CEO of Infinas GmbH
Winning the expat niche
“I have been working with Feather for 4 years, and their focus on the expat niche lets us win customers that most insurers currently can’t service without putting in significant additional efforts.”
Alexander Winkler, Manager at Barmenia
Fast, digital, and uncomplicated
“There is no easier and more efficient way to introduce people from all over the world to various of our insurances. On top it's completely digital, fast and uncomplicated.”
Dan Thalheimer, Team Lead at TK
