VANCOUVER, British Columbia (August 19, 2021) — InsuraGuest Technologies, Inc.® (TSX-V: ISGI)(OTCQB: ISGIF) (“InsuraGuest” or the “Company”), through its wholly owned U.S. hospitality subsidiary InsuraGuest®, is pleased to announce it has signed a vendor agreement and has integrated it’s insurance platform API with OwnerRez, whose mission is to deliver fast and simple booking services that help their customers manage their vacation rentals.
InsuraGuest coverages can now be purchased by users of OwnerRez, including professional hosts and property management companies, all of which may elect to use the InsuraGuest coverages by filling out an InsuraGuest application within the OwnerRez marketplace. Once in use, the client will use InsuraGuest’s insurance coverages for primary no fault accidental medical and property claims made by guests.
“We are excited to introduce our clients to InsuraGuest’s unique insurance offering,” said Ken Taylor, OwnerRez’s Director of Operations, “Unlike the other insurance products on the market, InsuraGuest is insurance that protects the property from claims made by their guests on a primary no-fault basis and is available for a per-diem rather than per-booking charge.”
Jennifer Epperson, VP of New Business Development for InsuraGuest Vacation Rentals, stated, “It is a pleasure to work with a Vacation Rental leader like OwnerRez, and to provide their clients with the only primary no-fault accidental medical coverage policy on the market today.”
Property Management System Integration
InsuraGuest will integrate with OwnerRez property management software through its proprietary API, which will enable OwnerRez’s users to transfer certain liability exposures to the InsuraGuest carrier. By transferring certain liabilities to the InsuraGuest coverages, the covered short-term rental properties can lower their claim ratios and risk profiles, which may decrease their umbrella liability policy and/or their homeowners’ policy premiums.

These statements reflect management’s current estimates, beliefs, intentions and expectations. There is no assurance that this new business product offering or other planned products will be successful. The insurance industry is intensely competitive, and the Company’s competitors have significantly more resources than the Company. Acceptance by potential customers is difficult to predict, particularly in the case of new products and disruptive technologies. If the Company fails to achieve market acceptance, this will significantly impact its results and financial resources. Achieving market acceptance may require advertising budgets that exceed the Company’s current resources and require the Company to seek additional debt or equity financing. There is no assurance that such financing will be available at reasonable prices or at all.
