Roamly Insurance Group, owned by RV dealer financer and online rental platform Outdoorsy, will partner with a global insurance company to provide product offerings for Outdoorsy travelers.
International Medical Group will offer three travel and health safety products created for Roamly. The products initially will be available to travelers booking trips on Outdoorsy.
“Partnering with Roamly is an exciting next step in IMG’s rapid growth in the travel insurance industry,” IMG President and CEO Steve Paraboschi said. “Our travel and health safety expertise combined with our operational capabilities make this the perfect fit for IMG to fully support Roamly.”
The IMG products include trip protection, interior damage and travel medical insurance. The Roamly Trip Protection plan provides trip cancellation and trip interruption benefits for unforeseen covered events, travel and baggage delay. The Roamly Interior Damage plan provides coverage for accidental damages to the RV rental’s interior while parked during a renter’s trip. The Roamly Travel Medical plan will launch in the coming months and will protect international travelers in the event of unexpected illnesses, injuries, or medical emergencies.
“We have seen the demand for RV rentals skyrocket since the onset of the pandemic. By partnering with IMG, we are paving the way for trip protection in the global RV and campervan market to meet that demand with the appropriate insurance offerings for outdoor travelers,” Roamly Chief Insurance Officer Aaron Ammar said.
IMG will assist Roamly as it markets the new products to U.S. and European travelers.
“We are pleased to be a part of such innovation in the outdoor and adventure travel space. We look forward to providing the best possible protection for travelers ready to get back out in the world,” said Amanda Winkle, IMG chief commercial officer.
