WiASSUR

WiASSUR is a digital insurance brokerage serving individual and business customers in Ivory Coast and Senegal. Founded in 2019 by Teva Fontaine, the company operates a fully online platform where users can compare insurance products from multiple carriers, purchase coverage, manage contracts, and follow claims without in-person interaction.

The company distributes personal and commercial lines across several product categories, including auto, health, life, travel, home, and school insurance. Its B2B2C model positions it as a digital intermediary that connects African consumers to insurers in markets where traditional distribution channels have limited reach.

WiASSUR raised a USD 300K seed round in 2023 from First Circle Capital, Microtraction, and Chui Ventures, followed by a strategic stake acquisition by AXIAN Investment in July 2024, which became the company's second-largest shareholder with an active governance role.
