Introduction
Inshuwa is a digital insurance infrastructure that enables businesses to scale and distribute insurance faster to target customer segments. It provides a comprehensive set of APIs that you can integrate to distribute insurance through your digital touchpoints.
What You Can Do
With the Inshuwa Partner API you can:
- Register policyholders — Onboard individual and corporate clients
- Manage vehicles — Register and manage insured vehicles
- Browse products — Access insurance products from multiple insurers
- Generate quotations — Create motor, travel, life, and general insurance quotations
- Issue policies — Convert quotations into active insurance policies
- Process payments — Collect premiums via mobile money, card, or mobile banking
- Access documents — Download policy schedules, certificates, and receipts
Getting Started
- Sign up at inshuwa.com to receive your API credentials
- Review the Authentication guide to secure your requests
- Understand the Key Concepts of the API
- Pick an issuance flow — how you quote, pay and issue
- Follow a product-specific guide (e.g., Motor Insurance)
Running requests from the guide
The product guides are executable. Wherever a step needs an API call, the request is embedded in the page: fill in the parameters and body, press Try it out, and the response — status, timing and payload — is rendered underneath. There is no need to copy anything into a separate HTTP client to follow along.
Set your API key once, in the box at the top of any guide. It is stored in your browser's local storage and applied to every request on the site, so you only enter it a single time.
These requests are real
They go to the development server and create real records against your account. Use a development key, never a production one.
Each embedded request links to Reference →, the full schema and examples for that endpoint in the API Reference.
