APOLLO Insurance, Canada’s leading online insurance provider, has partnered with Chroma Property Technologies Inc., to offer digital insurance products, tailored to tenants and landlords, directly from Chroma’s platform.
“APOLLO is excited to partner with such a visionary proptech company”
APOLLO launched in 2019, and now offers the largest selection of online insurance in Canada through brokers and embedded partnerships like the one with Chroma. In January 2021, APOLLO announced the close of a CAD $13.5 million Series A financing round. After two months of development, Chroma launched its beta product in early 2021 with the mission of making renting a better and more valuable experience for millions of Canadians. As Chroma continues to build out its platform, a public launch is expected later in 2021.
