Mortgage Matters partnerships to streamline home insurance offering

Mortgage Matters has partnered with insurtech firm Uinsure and intermediary platform Acre in a move designed to strengthen its building and contents insurance offering for clients.

The agreement will allow Mortgage Matters’ team to quote landlord and homeowner insurance directly from Uinsure using Acre’s platform, while also benefitting from automated referrals and data reusability – features that should enhance the efficiency of advice delivery and improve protection outcomes for clients.

The shift aligns with Mortgage Matters’ broader ambition to elevate its client experience. By harnessing Uinsure’s quoting technology and Acre’s data infrastructure, the firm says its advisers will be able to integrate protection advice more naturally into the mortgage journey.

Gavin Welch, financial services director at Mortgage Matters, said: “Since we began our partnership with Acre nearly 18 months ago, the results have been impressive, and we want to explore new opportunities that serve clients better.

“When you consider the milestones along in the mortgage journey, making sure the homeowner or landlord is protected is a critical one. The Uinsure integration with Acre makes it a seamless process to deliver award-winning home cover without any extra heavy lifting.”

ACCURACY

Acre’s platform enables advisers to access a consolidated view of their client’s mortgage and insurance requirements by reusing property and personal data already entered in the advice process. According to the firm, this approach allows for greater accuracy in policy recommendations while reducing the administrative burden on advisers.

Justus Brown, Acre’s chief executive and founder, said: “The cost of living remains high and so Mortgage Matters, like other advisers, want to make sure their clients are protected from any risk to their property that could result in a hefty cost burden.

“Our integration with Uinsure combines advanced quoting technology with our unique capability to store and reuse property and client data in order to serve up the most accurate cover for homeowners and landlords, while allowing advisors to meet compliance requirements.”
