How to become a POSP (Point of Sale Person) using MintPro app

Are you an insurance advisor? If not, are you looking to become one? It can all seem very confusing at first as there are so many different things one can do in the insurance field, but the underlying focus for most insurance advisors is to drive as many sales as possible. After all, this is what provides revenue and earnings.

 

Understanding PoSP

PoSP (Point of Sale Person) is a new type of license for insurance advisors that was created by IRDAI (Insurance Regulatory Development Authority of India) in 2015. It’s now the best way to enter insurance advisor career. Why? Insurance advisors are tied to a single company and can sell only products from that one insurer in the given category, i.e. life or non-life. But customers today demand more – they want to know all their options and look for advice from advisors on choosing the best product. A PoSP (Point of Sale Person) license or certification lets you do just that. As a PoSP (Point of Sale Person) you can sell policies of multiple insurance companies, across both life and non-life categories, such as term life, ULIP, endowment life, motor, health, personal accident, home and travel. PoSP (Point of Sale Person) is thus a wider concept than a traditional insurance advisor license. Therefore most individuals now choose the PoSP (Point of Sale Person) path for advisor career.

So how do you get PoSP certified?
This is where we at Turtlemint step in. We have created a platform for both aspiring and existing insurance advisors to sell insurance policies using our mobile application and website called MintPro. Improvements in technology and online accessibility have made a huge difference to the insurance industry. Previously what used to be a time-consuming job that required an insurance advisor to spend time meeting people individually to sell insurance policies can now be done in just a few taps using MintPro.
