HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Travelers today unveiled the TravelersClickSM portal, an expansion of the Bond &
Financial Products technology platform, dedicated to streamlining and
simplifying the online process of purchasing and issuing commercial
surety bonds for agents and brokers.
“We focused on building an intuitive platform with input from our
agencies across the country,” said George Thompson, Senior Vice
President, Commercial Surety, Travelers Bond & Financial Products. “TravelersClick introduces easy navigation, smart technology and resources
necessary for issuing a surety bond quickly and efficiently.”
Travelers Click highlights include:
-
Simplified Navigation: The platform was created to be intuitive,
allowing agency customer service and surety professionals to easily
navigate the platform without the need for additional training (though
it is readily available and accessible).
-
Smarter Technology: Information added to TravelersClickis automatically saved so users do not need to re-enter
information, saving time and improving efficiency.
-
Faster Execution: Travelers Click users can access a variety of
resources like an extensive bond forms library, agency underwriting
authority by bond type, and rate calculators, in an instant which,
when paired with simple navigation and smart technology, can reduce
the time needed to issue bonds by more than half.
-
Evolving Platform: Travelers Click is a flexible e-commerce
platform that will stay ahead of the curve to meet the evolving needs
of users.
In developing TravelersClick, Travelers worked with
select independent insurance agencies nationwide to determine how online
surety bond technologies could be improved to provide a superior
solution.
“The feedback from our agencies was very clear: make this process easier
and faster,” continued Thompson. “Most of the users we’ve worked with
are issuing bonds through this platform in about four minutes, which
they tell us is approximately 5 to 10 minutes faster than current
systems they use.”

The platform is accessible to Travelers’ appointed agents and brokers
