APOLLO Insurance Partners with Petsecure to Offer Pet Insurance Across Canada

APOLLO Insurance, a leading Canadian digital insurance provider and a pioneer in the embedded finance sector, is excited to announce its new partnership with Petsecure, expanding its range of insurance products to include pet insurance. This collaboration aims to provide comprehensive coverage for pets, ensuring that APOLLO’s tens of thousands of customers can access vital veterinary care without the stress of financial strain.

“We're thrilled to be partnering with Petsecure to provide our customers the peace of mind they can get their pets back to their happy, healthy selves without worrying about the financial burden of care when treatment is needed,” said Jeff McCann, APOLLO’s Founder and CEO.

Launched in 2019, APOLLO’s digital platform revolutionized the Canadian insurance market by offering fully digital insurance products. The company has since formed partnerships with leading real estate investment trusts (REITs), property management firms, proptech companies, and other organizations, embedding insurance products directly into their existing workflows. For property managers, this means that the insurance purchase experience is seamlessly integrated into leasing and renewal processes.

With pet ownership on the rise in Canada and expected to reach 28.5 million pets by 2025, APOLLO recognized the growing need for accessible pet insurance. “Pets are an integral part of our customers' lives, and unexpected vet costs can be crippling,” McCann added. “Offering pet insurance alongside our core tenant insurance products will make life easier for Canadian pet owners.”

Petsecure, known for its commitment to comprehensive and flexible pet insurance, covers a wide range of veterinary services, including diagnostics, X-rays, hospitalization, surgery, and medication. With the continuous advancements in veterinary care, Petsecure’s plans are designed to adapt to the evolving needs of pet owners, ensuring that pets receive the best possible care. "APOLLO’s digital-first approach makes them an ideal partner for Petsecure," said Raegan Ahlbaum, AVP of Petline Operations. “This partnership will bring pet insurance to more families, helping them invest in their pet’s health and well-being.”

APOLLO’s track record of innovation includes being the only insurance provider in Canada to integrate with Yardi Systems in 2022, enabling instant insurance transactions and real-time compliance tracking for property managers. Earlier this year, APOLLO further expanded its offerings with the launch of FinShore, a wholly owned subsidiary that provides a “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) payment option, fully embedded within their services.
