Real Time Rating

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

Real TimeReal Time Rating is a part of our new WinRater/SinglePoint 6.0 upgrade. We’ve spent well over a year building this functionality so that agents can get quotes directly from carrier web sites.  We’re excited to make it available to MA agents.

There are many benefits of Real Time Rating but the top two (as far as we’re concerned) are:

1. Single, consistent rating workflow for multiple carriers – WinRater/SinglePoint will deal with logging into & gathering quotes from your carriers’ web rating system.

2. Third party reports (i.e. RMV lookups, credit reports, etc.) required by carriers are included in the real time rate. This eliminates a lot of bottlenecks for agents and helps guarantee accuracy.

When you upgrade to 6.0, your WinRater/SinglePoint will be able to handle real time rating. However, we do not expect to go live with the first “Real Time Rated” carrier until late January. (This carrier is currently finishing up testing on their back end.)

Please call or email Charlie if you have any questions or would like to discuss this in detail.

Our best week yet for SinglePoint submissions!

Submissions up!Agents submitted nearly 1,800 new business Apps through SinplePoint in the first week of December.

That’s the most ever in one week.

If you’re not currently submitting new business via SinglePoint, you’re missing out on a great efficiency tool.

Call Tonya or Heather to walk you through the set up process. You’ll be glad you did.
