A Monumental Year for DOA

DOA experienced yet another successful year, achieving milestones in long-term projects as our family-run business continued to thrive in its 28th year.

DOA continues to grow

2023 was an incredible year for DOA. We have now been in our new office for over a year, have added 7 new team members and the business has grown by 16%.

We want to say a huge thank you to the DOA team for their continued hard work, support and dedication and to our broker and insurer partners for their support which continues to make DOA a success.

Here’s to another incredible year in 2024!

Achieving Milestones

In 2024, we successfully concluded numerous milestone projects, further elevating our products and systems for the benefit of our valued broker and insurer partners.

SunWorld Extra Upgrade

SunWorld Extra received an upgrade this year which saw a new capacity provider in Canopius Managing Agents Ltd – Syndicate 4444.

SunWorld can now automatically quote standard declined policies on SunWorld Extra, streamlining everything into one system.

Designed and exclusive for the Broker Market – SunWolrd Extra provides Leisure Travel Insurance from A-rated underwriters including any age for Single trip and Annual trip, with flexible commissions and flexible limits of cover.

B2C Rebrand

The Tech and Innovations Team launched a huge upgrade to our B2C Travel system after 18 months of research, development and rigorous testing to ensure the new system worked flawlessly.

B2C is an online quote-and-buy system that allows brokers to have a white-labelled website where clients can transact travel insurance online with minimal interaction from the broker.

The new features included:

  • Mobile-Friendly Functionality
  • 24/7 Access to Full Documents Suite
  • Comprehensive Reporting Feature
  • API Integration for Major Brands
  • Apple Pay and Google Pay

The Commercial team successfully added an MLP bolt-on product providing D&O, Corporate Legal Liability and Employment Practices Liability to our Property Owners scheme.

The system provides an auto quote where the proposer is eligible and allows the broker to tailor the cover with limits from £100,000 to £5,000,000.
