Press Release: Embrace Pet Insurance Celebrates 3 Years Offering Direct Claim Deposits

DSC_2126 Northeast Ohio –Embrace celebrates is third anniversary offering direct claim deposits to pet parents this month. Embrace was the first pet insurance company to offer claim reimbursements via direct deposit. Since launching direct deposit for claims in October 2007, Embrace has seen the percentage of claim payments using it more than double from just 12% in 2007 to over 27% in 2010.


Direct deposit is fast, easy, and efficient compared to waiting for a paper check in the mail. All Embrace customers can receive their claim refund directly into their bank accounts, usually the next business day after the claim is completed, if not the same day. Policyholders may continue to pay their premiums by credit card even when claims are direct deposited.


“Pet parents love the flexibility and speed of direct deposit for their claim payments” says Laura Bennett, CEO of Embrace Pet Insurance. “It’s incredibly simple to set up and everybody benefits from having claims paid more quickly. We’ve had our share of lost checks in the mail and direct deposit completely avoids that uncertainty.”


If you are an Embrace customer, email hello@embracepetinsurance.com or call in to 1-800-511-9172 to learn how you can benefit from direct deposit claims payments.
