Polly Expands Partnership with TruStage

Williston, Vermont — Polly, the insurance technology platform built for the automotive and financial services industries, today announced an expansion of its existing partnership with TruStage®, adding TruStage Payment Guard Advantage Insurance to its suite of consumer protection offerings. The product joins Polly's existing lineup of auto, home, and life insurance products.

TruStage Payment Guard Advantage Insurance is a financial safety net benefit designed to provide stability if the unexpected happens. With this coverage, customers who experience an involuntary job loss or a qualifying disability due to injury or illness lasting more than 30 days, become eligible to receive a one-time cash payment. Customers can put the benefit toward loan payments, rent, groceries, medical expenses, or any other financial obligation. Coverage is available with no medical exam required, and members may cancel for a full refund within the first 30 days.

The addition of Payment Guard Advantage reflects Polly's continued commitment to providing access to meaningful, affordable financial protection products. Options start at less than $18 per month, but customers can choose both the benefit amount and monthly premium that best fit their budget.

"Our partnership with TruStage has always been about putting the right protections in front of customers at the right time," said Erica Escobar, Senior Director, Sales & Service, at Polly. "Payment Guard Advantage fills a real gap. Life doesn't pause when income stops, and this product helps members stay financially stable during some of the most stressful periods they'll face."

"TruStage was built on the philosophy of people helping people, and Payment Guard Advantage was designed with exactly that mission in mind," said Danielle Sesko, Director of Product Management at TruStage. “Through our expanded partnership with Polly, we're able to reach more customers with a simple, affordable product that helps them weather job loss or disability without derailing their finances. We're proud to deepen this collaboration and expand access to solutions that help people stay financially resilient when life takes an unexpected turn."

Payment Guard Advantage can be accessed Polly's platform.
