Yes. If you are currently appointed with our carriers through another agency, you must request a release and get new appointments through Assurance. We've worked with thousands of agents and our specialized team is here to support you! We'll help you get the information you need for carrier contracting, certifcations, and appointments.

For our full-time, captive agents, all equipment is provided. All non-captive agents must provide their own equipment.

Absolutely! After you become an active agent, you'll be able to refer friends and colleagues to Assurance.

Note: full-time agents can only refer people to full-time positions and independent agents can only refer people to independent agent opportunities at Assurance.

There are no residuals. Instead, agents focus on volume-based sales from a steady stream of free, inbound, pre-screened leads. Compensation includes guaranteed sales bonuses. This is a non-captive agent position.

When you start selling at Assurance, you will get calls from shoppers across the country. The more state licenses you have, the more calls you can take. If you don't already have 3 state licenses, you must acquire additional licenses during your Assurance onboarding period.

You start earning money when you sell policies on our platform.

Specific to Annual Election Period (AEP), we have a call efficiency plan that pays you during AEP. You also receive the traditional post-AEP payments after AEP. It's like getting paid twice!

Around 4 months — much shorter than the industry average.

There are no traditional benefits available for the non-captive agent opportunity. We focus on providing advantages, like no-cost resources, for agents on the Assurance platform. Assurance IQ is a subsidiary of Prudential Financial. Contracts are with Assurance, not Prudential.

For full-time agents, however, we do offer a comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical, dental, vision, and a 401(k).

No releases shall be given for releases that were requested between July 15, 2021 and December 31, 2021. For any releases requested during this period, the request will be deemed made on January 1 of the following year.

For a release to be requested it must be contemporaneous with or following the termination of employment or the termination of the agent’s Master Services Agreement.

For agents that have switched lines of insurance, the longer period shall apply.
