Overview
Bima Insurance is a digital insurance marketplace and aggregator platform serving consumers in Oman. Licensed by the Financial Services Authority (Capital Market Authority) of Oman, the platform enables customers to compare offerings from multiple licensed insurance providers and purchase policies entirely online through a web portal and mobile app.
The platform integrates directly with Omani government databases to retrieve vehicle registration data automatically when users apply for motor insurance, reducing manual data entry and accelerating policy issuance. Policies are issued within 15 minutes of payment, and the app is available on iOS, Android, and Huawei AppGallery. Bima operates a 24/7 call center staffed by over 60 insurance specialists and supports bilingual Arabic/English interfaces.
Launched in July 2020 as a trademark of Insurance House L.L.C., Bima has grown to serve over 500,000 customers and holds distribution partnerships with Omantel and Ooredoo, Oman's two major telecoms operators. The company was recognized as the best startup in the GCC for 2024 by the GCC Secretary General.
