HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Oct. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Poni Insurtech Pte. Ltd.

The platform aims to offer Vietnamese consumers an improved, transparent, and user-friendly insurance shopping experience, effectively positioning itself as a one-stop “insurance supermarket.”

Mr. Ron Tam, CEO of Poni Insurtech, commented, “We are thrilled to announce our entry into Vietnam in collaboration with founder Niem and her experienced team, following our successful acquisition of Global Care and marking a significant milestone in our ASEAN expansion strategy.

Mrs. Dinh Thi Ngoc Niem, CEO of Global Care, commented, “With Poni Insurtech as a major shareholder, we have a distinct advantage in this dynamic market. Their cutting-edge technology, financial strength, and extensive industry network will empower us to elevate our service quality and expand our market reach. The launch of GlobalCare.vn is our first joint initiative, designed to enhance customer choice, accessibility, and operational efficiency for our partners. We are well-positioned and confident that we will accelerate the digitalization of Vietnam’s insurance industry. We also extend our gratitude to VinaCapital Venture for their support in fostering this partnership and unlocking new growth opportunities.”

GlobalCare.vn: Transforming the Digital Insurance Experience

At the launch event, Global Care introduced GlobalCare.vn, an innovative, user-friendly platform that provides customers with a simple and intuitive way to search and customize insurance packages suited to their protection needs and financial capabilities. GlobalCare.vn offers quick and efficient claims analysis and approval, enhancing the overall customer journey by streamlining processes and reducing wait times.

The platform benefits insurers by allowing easy product digitization and fast claim processing, without requiring extensive technical support. For agents and collaborators, the platform provides tools to match customers with the right policies while creating new income opportunities.

While integrating insurance products into “e-commerce platforms” is not a novel concept, GlobalCare.vn sets itself apart as a dedicated, customer-first platform, offering direct visual product comparisons. This distinctive approach makes it a unique and invaluable asset in Vietnam’s rapidly evolving digital insurance landscape.
