New York – October 5, 2022 – QuickFi® and Great American Insurance Group launched an API-enabled insurance solution fully integrated into QuickFi’s 100% digital equipment financing platform, which is used by banks and global equipment manufacturers to finance equipment at the point of sale. The Great American– QuickFi integration provides instant, 24/7 protection for business equipment buyers at the point of sale.
QuickFi’s platform provides bank and manufacturers with the ability to provide self-service business equipment financing accessible from anywhere, at any time of the day or night.
