AIA Australia makes improvements to its online quoting tool
With financial advisers demanding better functionality and faster processing from their software solutions, AIA Australia has added new features to its online quoting and application tool eAPP Express.
The application - which allows advisers to lodge life insurance and applications electronically - is now available to use across a variety of platforms including tablets, laptops and notebooks.
AIA head of retail Pina Sciarrone said the enhancements were made in response to advisers' demands for greater flexibility in how they work.
Other improvements include an expanded industry and occupation database which now includes the mining industry, multi-policy creation capability, improvements to security for credit card payments and applications that require no signatures, cutting down on paper work and the time it takes to submit a policy quote.
