iGMS and Safely Partner to Bring Embedded Insurance and Improved Risk Management to Short-Term Rental Hosts

Business Wire

This partnership automates coverage, claims, and risk management directly inside iGMS

VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
iGMS, the property management platform built for independent short-term rental hosts and managers, announces a partnership with Safely, a provider of insurance protection for the short-term rental industry.

The integration embeds Safely's insurance products directly into iGMS, enabling hosts to enroll in and select the right coverage for their properties and file claims without leaving iGMS. Coverage is tied to active reservations, ensuring hosts are protected precisely when risk is highest.

For small and large property managers, managing risks across multiple properties is increasingly complex. This partnership addresses this challenge by eliminating the need for multiple systems and processes, bringing insurance protection into a single, streamlined system within iGMS.

“iGMS is built for independent hosts and small-to-midsize property managers from 1 to 50+ properties the big platforms overlook. Embedding Safely’s reservation-based damage and liability coverage directly into iGMS means our hosts can protect their business and file claims without ever leaving the app. It’s one more way we help independent operators run like pros from a single platform,” said Ivan Levchenko, CEO of iGMS.

“This partnership brings best-in-class insurance protection to hosts within iGMS, providing a simple, streamlined process,” said Mark Neville, CEO of Safely. “Together with iGMS, we’re removing friction and making it simple to access coverage on every reservation.”
