Wawanesa Insurance is the First Insurer to Achieve CSIO’s JSON API Standards Certification
|
Published by CSIO’s INNOTECH API Implementation Working Groups, JSON API Standards facilitate seamless communication between insurer systems and broker management systems (BMS). These Standards enable brokers to obtain information such as a payment status or billing schedule directly in their BMS, streamlining the process to better support their clients.
Wawanesa implementing the JSON API Standards for Billing APIs will allow brokers to receive real-time data for Billing use cases once BMS vendors deploy them into production. This accomplishment demonstrates Wawanesa’s commitment to driving workflow efficiency for brokers.
“As one of Canada’s leading mutual P&C insurers, we take pride in leading innovation and ensuring success for our broker community,” said Cam Muckosky, Vice President, Digital Delivery at Wawanesa Insurance. “The JSON API Standards Certification reaffirms our commitment to leading the way with APIs that empower brokers to provide exceptional service to our members.”
“Wawanesa becoming the first member certified in JSON API Standards further strengthens their position as a leader that consistently enhances their value through Data Standards,” said Catherine Smola, President & CEO of CSIO. “Their achievement sets a high standard for the industry and builds broker confidence through advanced data capabilities.”
Several more members are working towards JSON API Standards Certification. CSIO insurer and vendor members can download the JSON API Standards Certification Guide to apply for Certification and access the latest JSON API Standards here.
