ePayPolicy Partners with Novidea’s SMART Management System

AUSTIN, TX – June 9, 2020 –  ePayPolicy now integrates with Novidea’s SMART AMS. ePayPolicy will extend e-payment capabilities to users of the cloud-based, Salesforce-powered agency management system that leverages automation and AI to help agencies scale faster and more efficiently than ever before.

ePayPolicy enables independent insurance agencies to collect payments instantly via credit card and ACH. The company’s digital payment portal is designed for independent insurance agents and brokers to handle their industry-specific  accounting, compliance and reporting requirements.

Agents can bind policies faster and replace aging receivables with instant payment.

Milan Malkani, ePayPolicy Co-Founder, stated: “We have always advocated InsurTech solutions beyond our own, especially technology-driven agency management systems that utilize data to excel the workflow of today’s on-the-go agent . It’s exciting to be part of the Novidea SMART AMS, along with other integrated providers of AI-based SMS technology, digital marketing and e-signatures, to name a few.”

By selecting partners like ePayPolicy, we showcase how our open API architecture can easily integrate with best of breed new technologies, and further demonstrates our vision to help agencies scale by automating all processes. These capabilities go well beyond the typical AMS.”

MGA Systems’ IMS Features ePayPolicy Payment Processing


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Austin, TX
July 31, 2019 –  MGA Systems announced that their flagship software product, Insurance Management System (IMS), now integrates with ePayPolicy’s digital payment processing platform. ePayPolicy enables agencies to accept payment by credit or debit card or ACH and automatically reconciles electronic payments into IMS.

MGA Systems has been serving the insurance industry since 1998. Their branded agency management system, IMS, is designed specifically for MGA’s and E&S brokerage firms.  The system provides a scalable solution, allowing remote underwriting offices to be established “turn-key.” As a result, IMS is one of the most trusted agency management systems for automating/supporting essential tasks like custom rating, dynamic risk clearance, electronic filing, accounting/general ledger, invoicing and policy issuance.

ePayPolicy allows insurance agency clients to pay electronically by credit card, debit card or ACH. By eliminating or greatly reducing the number of paper checks, agencies receive payments instantly and spend less time chasing down receivables. Clients today expect the convenience, while agency staff enjoy the ease of use of our platform,” said Milan Malkani, co-founder.

“IMS is all about seamless integration of the functions today’s agents need to streamline and grow their business. The integration with ePayPolicy was seamless and we didn’t have to do  any heavy lifting. While online payment has been available in the consumer space for a long time, we find that even commercial clients now want to pay online. We know our agencies — and their clients — will be delighted with the ePayPolicy portal on IMS,” said CEO John Bennis.

The ePayPolicy platform makes it easy to accept and reconcile digital payments directly through IMS. Those using IMS will experience easy on-boarding, quick setup, and fast, one-to-two-day go-live, among a host of other features.

Malkani commented: “We understand that IMS’ accounting system includes automatic NOC’s for non-payment of premiums. Our goal at ePayPolicy is twofold. First, we want agencies using IMS to delight their policyholders with the convenience of online payment. Second, we want to make non-payments as obsolete as writing checks. Instant payment means your staff no longer have to chase down delinquent payments. They have more time to engage in high-value work.”

Concluded Bennis: “MGA Systems is committed to developing software that benefits insurance professionals. We chose ePayPolicy because, like us, they understand our industry’s software needs from the inside out. We look forward to this partnership. Together, we are making IMS client agencies even more productive.”
