FRIDAY Deploys Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ in the Cloud in Record 60 Days
German online motor insurer combines innovation with simplicity in new pay-per-kilometer product
FRIDAY, the German branch of Bâloise
Working with Guidewire PartnerConnect™ alliance member, PwC, FRIDAY’s team not only implemented the Guidewire platform in the cloud in a record time, but also built an innovative product, new to the German motor insurer market. This product allows car owners to pay for insurance on a per-kilometer basis, with the year’s premium adjusted retroactively according to distance, as transmitted by the customer to FRIDAY.
“At FRIDAY, we aim to shape the future of insurance by offering and developing customer-centric products,” said Christoph Samwer, CEO and co-founder, FRIDAY. “Our first production release includes a mileage-based product, novel for the German market, and illustrates well our aim to provide customers with flexible insurance that suits their specific life-styles. Moving forward, our ambition is to become the most popular mobile insurer in Germany.”
Guidewire products are enabling FRIDAY to:
- Provide customers with excellent digital experience through simple and easy-to-use products;
- Introduce new products fast (monthly, or possibly weekly) due to automation and process support;
- Benefit from cloud-derived efficiencies and cost savings, such as shutting down server when not required; and
- Utilise an integrated technology platform to build an open API architecture.
“To be innovative in the insurance industry requires a high quality,
flexible core system and an outstanding front-end,” said
“We are delighted to welcome FRIDAY as our latest German customer,” said
