Arch RoamRight partners with Tern to offer travel insurance at booking

Arch RoamRight, a leading travel insurance provider, announced a strategic partnership with the travel advisor platform Tern on October 30, 2024, to integrate insurance purchasing options directly into the travel booking workflow. This collaboration aims to streamline the administrative burden for travel advisors by allowing them to offer and execute insurance policies at the point of sale. By embedding Arch RoamRight’s protection plans into Tern’s management software, the companies are addressing a critical gap in the travel planning process, ensuring that travelers can secure coverage seamlessly while finalizing their itineraries. The integration allows travel advisors using the Tern platform to generate quotes and finalize insurance purchases for their clients without having to navigate away to external websites or manual entry systems. This technical synergy is expected to increase the attachment rate of insurance products, as the offer is presented precisely when the client is most focused on financial protection and risk management. For Arch RoamRight, the move represents a significant expansion of its digital distribution network, tapping into Tern’s growing base of modern, tech-savvy travel professionals. Beyond simple transactional efficiency, the partnership highlights a broader trend toward the digitalization of the travel economy and the importance of professional-grade tools for independent advisors. By automating the insurance component, the Tern platform reduces the risk of human error in policy selection and ensures that mandatory disclosures are met. This partnership ultimately benefits the end consumer, who receives more robust protection options at the moment of booking, facilitated by a more efficient and professional advisory service.
