Overview
GARANTIEMAX is an embedded insurance solutions provider for B2B retailers and dealer networks, focused on digital warranty extension products for consumer electronics, kitchen furniture, and home appliances. The company operates as an Assekuradeur (underwriting agent) and enables retail and dealer partners to offer protection products directly within their sales channels through a B2B2C distribution model.
The platform delivers fully digital embedded warranty products including extended coverage plans of up to 10 years, supported by AI-based claims processing and IoT-enabled risk assessment. Products are designed for rapid integration into partner sales ecosystems via API and POS system connections, allowing retailers to deploy protection offerings without building their own insurance infrastructure.
Founded in 2020 as a spin-off from SIGNAL IDUNA Group, GARANTIEMAX has grown to serve over 1,000 kitchen retailers and studios across Germany. Risk carrier backing from RheinLand Holding AG was formalized in late 2024, providing the insurance capacity underpinning product offerings. The company participates in InsurLab Germany, the country's leading insurtech accelerator network.
