NEW YORK, NY & FT MYERS, FL – Afficiency, the start-up that provides life insurance products via API to digital distributors, announces a strategic partnership with Pendella. Pendella, a digital insurance agency... has partnered with Afficiency to provide term life and income replacement term life insurance to their clients. Pendella is the leader in providing insurance advice to business owners delivering custom solutions for them and their employees.

The partnership allows Pendella to provide up to $1,000,000 of term life insurance coverage and  over $1,000,000 of income protection term life insurance in a completely digital experience, with policies purchased in minutes and in one purchase session.  No individual is ever sent to an exam. If an individual may not qualify, a Pendella advisor can recommend alternative products before submitting an application. 

 “Having Afficiency as a partner is great for Pendella. Prior to Afficiency we would have had to work with a carrier to build a bespoke product.  Afficiency handles the product manufacturing and then delivers it to us all via API.  This is a huge step forward in the life insurance industry from what was previously available,” said Bob Gaydos , CEO & Co-Founder of Pendella. “Pendella aims to provide the simplest solutions for business owners to protect their assets and this is just another step forward in that direction.” 

The partnership significantly strengthens both organizations from capability and distribution standpoints. 

“We are excited to be working with Pendella and to provide new and innovative life insurance solutions to the many customers they serve,” said Mark Scafaro, CEO and Co-founder of Afficiency.
