Chicago-based Encompass Insurance is now piloting a new commission download system designed to automatically post billing and commission information in an agency’s office management system.
The Encompass direct bill commission download is designed to help make independent agencies that sell Encompass products and services operate more efficiently, by saving time and resources currently spent manually inputting commission data into agency management systems.
Six independent agencies around the country are already using the program, and an expanded rollout will begin in early May for agencies using Applied Systems’ TAM, AMS’s Sagitta and AMS’s AfW.
Encompass is Allstate’s independent agent personal lines brand.
