## Overview

wiCover is a cloud-based insurance distribution platform provider for carriers, brokers, and MGAs. Founded in 2016 in South Africa, the company builds and operates configurable platforms that enable digital self-service capabilities for insurance sales, policy management, service, and claims processing.

The platform acts as a front-end digital engagement layer that integrates with existing insurance administration systems via APIs. Clients use it to deploy mobile apps and web portals for customer-facing insurance journeys, including quote and bind, policy management, claims filing, and value-added services. The technology stack includes React and Vue.js on the frontend with ASP.NET on the backend, hosted on a cloud infrastructure.

wiCover serves clients across South Africa, Australia, the UAE, the UK, the US, and Asia. The company generates revenue through annual licensing fees, premium-based distributions, and GWP percentage arrangements. As of 2018, the company was self-funded and pursuing additional capital for global expansion.
