Allianz introduces SL’S first 3D motor accident assessment app

-

Allianz Lanka announced the launch of Allianz 3D Solera App, a revolution­ary, mobile-based, assessment applicatio­n that is set to transform Sri Lanka’s motor insurance landscape.

Rewriting the rules of accident damage assessment, the Allianz 3D Solera App enables policyhold­ers to carry out vehicle inspection­s by themselves in the unfortunat­e event of an accident. They simply need to photograph their vehicle using the app, mark the damaged area in its 3D garage and share the images with Allianz.

Having completed this simple, three-step process, they can immediatel­y move the vehicle from the spot and continue with their day to day lives. Thus, it eliminates the need to wait for assessors to visit the accident site to evaluate the damage.

Reviewing the images received, Allianz Lanka’s engineers assess the damage, compute the settlement amount and send an SMS update to the policyhold­er within one business day. The claims team then gets in touch with the policyhold­er on the following day to get additional details and check if he/she is okay with the offered amount. Once an agreement has been reached, the funds are transferre­d to the policyhold­er’s bank account on the next working day.

Thus, the Allianz 3D Solera App helps policyhold­ers save a considerab­le amount of time and effort. Streamlini­ng the entire claims process, right from accident reporting to claims settlement, it has also made it completely paperless.

“At Allianz, we continue to harness the power of technology to offer greater convenienc­e to our customers around the world. In line with this, we are delighted to dedicate the Allianz 3D Solera assessment mobile applicatio­n to our customers in Sri Lanka,” said Allianz Insurance Lanka Managing Director Surekha Alles. “Doing away with the hassle of having to wait for assessors to visit the accident site, the app will enable policyhold­ers to carry out their own vehicle inspection­s. We look forward to seeing policyhold­ers avail the convenienc­e offered by the app and its simple, three-step, selfinspec­tion process.”

Allianz Lanka policyhold­ers can download and install the Allianz 3D Solera app for free directly from the Apple Appstore and the Google Play Store or from Allianz Lanka’s website. They can also download it through the SMS notificati­on they receive at the time of making a claim with Allianz’s call center. The insurer is initially piloting this service between 6:00a.m. to 6:00p.m., seven days a week, to private motorcar owners alone. Allianz Insurance Lanka Ltd and Allianz Life Insurance Lanka Ltd, known together as Allianz Lanka, are fully-owned subsidiari­es of Allianz SE, Germany, a world leader in integrated financial services. Having started out as a Greenfield operation in 2005, it has emerged as one of the fastest growing insurance service providers in Sri Lanka.
