Any customer who purchases <a href=\"http:\/\/traveljoy.sompo.co.th\/index.php?language=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SOMPO travel insurance<\/a> will be now able to instantly store and access their digital travel policy directly from their phones.<\/p>\n<h3>The Innovation<\/h3>\n<p>When you purchase a &#8216;regular&#8217; insurance, you receive a TON of papers with your insurance plastic card, a booklet listing all of your benefits, coverage, contact information etc.\u00a0<em>SOMPO Thailand\u00a0just eliminated and condensed all of that into a single, digital travel insurance policy that can be accessed from mobile wallet<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>The Customer Experience<\/h3>\n<p>1. Customers visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/traveljoy.sompo.co.th\/index.php?language=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SOMPO Thailand travel page<\/a>\u00a0and select their travel dates.<br \/>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10307\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08053420\/Screen-Shot-2016-12-08-at-1.33.41-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-12-08 at 1.33.41 PM\" width=\"1375\" height=\"719\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n2. Customers then select a plan they would like to purchase.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10308\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08053528\/Screen-Shot-2016-12-07-at-2.32.01-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-12-07 at 2.32.01 PM\" width=\"1052\" height=\"1318\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n3. Customers fill in their personal and payment details and get to the &#8216;review order&#8217; section.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10309\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08053920\/Screen-Shot-2016-12-07-at-2.33.11-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-12-07 at 2.33.11 PM\" width=\"881\" height=\"621\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n4. After payment, customers receive a confirmation SMS with a link\u00a0that redirects to their mobile insurance pass. Note: Personal info have been hidden\u00a0for privacy purposes.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-10311\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08060511\/1.png\" alt=\"1\" width=\"300\" height=\"589\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n5. Here&#8217;s how the pass looks like.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-10312\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08060649\/2.png\" alt=\"2\" width=\"300\" height=\"590\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n6. The back of the pass contains a summary of the policy details, as well as useful info for the traveller.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-10313\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08060915\/3.png\" alt=\"3\" width=\"300\" height=\"597\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n7. On the back of the pass you will also find your full policy in PDF format, as well as embassy contacts, tourist suggestions and how to make a claim in case it&#8217;s needed (see picture below).<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10314\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08061135\/3a.png\" alt=\"3a\" width=\"1174\" height=\"966\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n8. When customers tap on the &#8216;Nearby Places&#8217; links on the back they are redirected to the specific relevant suggestions they are looking for. In the example below there&#8217;s a google maps screen showing restaurants in the vicinities.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-10315\" src=\"https:\/\/dxjl3qy52c1o9.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/08061850\/3b.png\" alt=\"3b\" width=\"300\" height=\"595\" title=\"\"><br \/>\nWe are finally entering a new phase in history where customers no longer need to carry around insurance plastic cards or dig through pages and pages of booklets to find information. Everything that is needed can all be accessed via the digital insurance policy through your phone. One very simple tap away.<\/p>\n<h3>It&#8217;s time to make a change<\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019re very happy to have partnered with both <a href=\"https:\/\/passkit.com\/blog\/fwd-hong-kong-digital-insurance-policies-mobile-wallet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FWD Hong Kong<\/a> and SOMPO Thailand and took another step forward to deliver seamless and tailored\u00a0experiences for customers.
