Types of insurance portals
Self-service portal
A self-service portal allows customers to log into their accounts and access their policy information. It also benefits insurance companies, saving them time on routine service tasks and helping meet customer expectations.
Agent and broker portal
A dedicated web portal for brokers, partners, and agents allows them to collect and view data on insurance policies and application statuses all in one place. Streamlined processes will increase operational efficiency and facilitate new deals.
Underwriting portal
An underwriting portal organizes insurers and connects them with brokers and clients. Insurers can interact with clients to manage business promotions and online policy sales to deliver a best-in-class experience.
Affiliate partner portal
An affiliate partner portal provides the partners of an insurance organization access to the most relevant offers and opportunities as well as helpful resources.
Insurance comparison portal
Insurance policy comparison portals allows customers to compare different insurance policy offers for certain categories and see which one provides the best premium rates.
Insurance MGAs and MGUs portal
This insurance portal is used by managing general agents (MGAs) and managing general underwriters (MGUs) who are appointed by insurer firms to collect applications from agents and manage insurance contracts.

Common challenges with insurance portals
Challenge
Solution
Challenge
Complex implementation
Challenge
Solution
To simplify insurance portal implementation for your IT team and staff, you should start with a technology audit and develop a comprehensive strategy for portal development and implementation, insurance data migration, customization of the solution to the business needs, and integration of all legacy and new systems like CRM, PIM, or CMS.
Challenge
High total cost
Challenge
Solution
In addition to portal development costs, you must consider consulting and advisory services, support and maintenance costs, and security expenses. Before the development, companies should also justify how well the planned insurance portal meets their needs, and if it proves too expensive, what adjustments can be made to lower its cost.
Challenge
Lack of digital agility
Challenge
Solution
To prepare for insurance portal adoption, companies should carefully assess their ability to quickly adapt to changes in operations, such as how soon they can get used to the automation of routine tasks. To speed adaptation, companies can also develop training programs to upskill insurance agents.
Challenge
Low digital literacy
Challenge
Solution
Insurance agents would need to possess some technical skills to work with the portal. If the company’s digital literacy level is low, they can develop a training plan to ensure that employees upgrade their skills to work with different tools within the portal.
