This is your contracting hub- use this Producer Overview to help you walk through the process. Complete your agent profile and electronic signature (HERE is a helpful guide for completing signatures)
Step #2. Complete the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Course.
If you are an experienced agent, please go through LIMRA using these directions.
If you are a newly licensed agent, please use the Free SuranceBay course using these directions.
Step #3. The profile will ask you to upload E&O insurance, the carriers require this coverage. We recommend using & selecting the 2nd option to obtain coverage. NAPA is our preferred provider however you can use any provider of your choice.
