Why become a Caunce O’Hara partner?

Expert cover for your clients

With over 25 years experience in the contractor, freelancer and small business sectors, we can offer your clients specialist cover, a fast and easy online journey and award winning customer service.

Your own online quote engine

At our expense we will provide you with a quotation engine including both your logo and business colours. You can add this to your own website, share in customer marketing or include in your onboarding process.

Not only can you relax safe in the knowledge that your customer have insurance cover that’s bespoke to their needs, but as cover has been purchased through your quotation engine, it earns you a commission.
