Customers are angry with traditional insurers that went MIA during the pandemic and typically provide negative post-claim Net Promoter Ratings (NPS) scores, according to the company’s co-founder and CEO, Angus McDonald.

In addition to nearly tripling its revenue year over year, the press release highlights the company’s growth since its Series C in 2021. It mentions partnerships with companies like the travel app Hopper, the buy now, pay later business Zip, and the Indian gig economy apps Ola and Betterplace.
A premium was also paid by the New York City-based company last summer to obtain built-in ticket insurance for the sellers’ platform Booking Protect.
As was stated at the time, by offering embedded protection for ticket brokers, ticket marketplaces, and live event companies like SeatGeek, Spectrix, AudienceView, and Night Out, the agreement enables Cover Genius to increase its market share in the live entertainment and ticketing sectors.
