Why Over 75,000+ Businesses Choose Insurance Canopy
Quick, quality quotes are at our core.
There’s dozens of business insurance options to choose from. But they don’t do what Insurance Canopy does.
We started as a small business, so we get it
When we first opened our doors (rather launched our website) in 2016, we had a small team of employees and were branching out from our sister program Veracity Insurance. Today we have over 100 employees, some of whom are entrepreneurs themselves. We’ve gone through the hurdles and growing pains every small business faces, so we know what you need from an insurance company.
We offer ready-to-buy policies & custom plans
3 Things We Believe About Insurance
1. Insurance Shouldn’t Hold You Back
Running a business is hard enough, and your insurance shouldn’t make it any more difficult. Our policies meet industry standards, get you compliant with contracts, and keep business operations running smoothly with our quick claims process.
2. Insurance Should Be Easy
Instead of scheduling a time to meet an agent, filling out hours of paperwork, and waiting days for a quote, you can select your coverage and request a quote in just minutes online. Some industries can even enjoy same-day coverage instantly!
3. Insurance Should Be Accessible
Our online process makes it easy to apply online for a policy at any time on any device. We also work hard to keep our costs low and make our coverage easy to understand. Plus, you can customize our policies to better suit your needs.
