Flexible insurance payments synced to your cashflow—no more premium shocks.
Bootstrapped small business owners are burdened by skyrocketing insurance premiums due to the absence of tailored insurtech solutions that accommodate their lean, cash-strapped operations.
FlexGuard offers revenue-linked insurance billing: pay percentages of premiums when revenue flows, deferring rest interest-free. Tailored for bootstrapped volatility, it partners with insurers for adjustable policies. Owners stabilize cashflow while staying fully covered.
