"At Next Insurance, we are committed to helping small businesses thrive by delivering phenomenal digital insurance products, all under one roof," said John Dwight, Head of Channel Sales and Partnerships, of Next Insurance. "This partnership with vcita underlines the importance of meeting the customer within their current workflow and will provide seamless access to affordable and tailored insurance policies. We are thrilled to join together with a company that shares our focus on small business success."

The partnership comes at a time when many businesses are gearing up for post-COVID recovery or expansion, while still grappling with the challenges of a year marked by unpredictability and strategic reorganization.

"We've been steadfast in our commitment to helping small businesses digitally transform to survive and thrive through the pandemic, and now we're optimistic for them," said vcita CEO Itzik Levy. "With the right tools and support, we believe that 2021 can be a huge year for small business growth."

This new alliance with Next Insurance is the latest in a series of new partnerships and innovations that vcita has rolled out since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, all of which are focused on helping small businesses open up new revenue streams and remain viable. With Next Insurance, vcita customers will have access to USA-based licensed insurance advisors, tools and services like 24/7 access to certificates of insurance from a mobile device or computer, and in-house claims filings where a decision is typically made within 48 hours.

For vcita, this comes hot on the heels of several strategic partnerships, including an initiative with Lendio to improve access to PPP loans and the launch of the "Business Unusual" educational portal, co-produced with MasterCard. The core vcita platform also rolled out a native integration with Zoom, a Pay by Mobile feature to help small businesses offer contact-free payments, and a Packages feature that supports bundled services. The SME Finance Forum, which works to democratize financial services for SMBs, recently welcomed vcita as a member organization.
