Overview

Bismart Insurance is a digital insurance brokerage serving individual consumers and small businesses in Kenya and East Africa. Regulated by the Insurance Regulatory Authority of Kenya, the company operates as an internet-first aggregator, enabling customers to compare and purchase insurance policies from multiple carriers through a web and mobile platform.

The company distributes health, motor, life, family, and senior insurance products. Its distribution model targets underserved populations with limited access to traditional insurance agents, offering policy comparison tools and educational resources through digital channels.

Bismart uses blockchain and smart contract technology to support policy management and premium payment processing via mobile money, positioning it as a technology-differentiated broker in a market with low insurance penetration. The company was founded in 2017 by Eunice Maina and has participated in accelerator programs including IBM Hyper Protect Accelerator and Strathmore University Women in Tech Programme.
