Orange Jordan has announced an exciting strategic partnership with MetLife, the global insurance company! Their goal is to offer a range of digital insurance solutions right through the Orange Money wallet. This is a big step towards expanding digital financial services and making insurance products much easier and more flexible for users across Jordan. This collaboration is part of both companies' efforts to boost financial inclusion and speed up the digital transformation in both the FinTech and digital insurance sectors. They're creating a complete experience that brings together electronic payment services and insurance protection, all on one easy-to-use digital platform. **Integrated Digital Insurance Through One App** Thanks to this agreement, Orange Money app users will be able to sign up for various insurance packages. These packages are designed to fit the needs of different customers and include both life insurance and personal accident insurance. These services will be entirely digital, meaning users can pick the right package, complete the sign-up process, and make payments directly through the app. No more paperwork or trips to a branch! **A Flexible and Fast Digital Experience** The new service offers a smooth and complete user journey. It starts with choosing an insurance package from available options, like Silver or Gold. Then, you can easily manage your payments and receive instant notifications about your subscription and renewals. Users also get full flexibility to decide how and when they want to pay their premiums, making it fit perfectly with their financial needs. Plus, all transactions are guaranteed to be secure and smooth through the e-wallet. **Supporting Digital Transformation and Financial Inclusion** Orange Jordan confirmed that launching these insurance services via Orange Money perfectly matches its strategy. This strategy focuses on developing innovative digital solutions that help strengthen Jordan's financial services sector and give more people access to modern financial and insurance products. MetLife Jordan, for its part, explained that working with Orange Jordan is a significant step. It helps them offer insurance protection services that are easier and more flexible, meeting customers' changing needs and boosting the spread of digital insurance solutions in the Jordanian market. **Subscription Requirements and Data Protection** The two companies mentioned that to use the service, subscribers need to be between 18 and 55 years old and have an active, verified Orange Money wallet. Both parties also emphasized their full commitment to protecting customer privacy and keeping all data and information confidential. This will be done according to all applicable laws and regulations, ensuring the highest levels of security and reliability when you use the service. **Orange Money: Jordan's Largest E-wallet** Orange Money is one of the most prominent electronic payment platforms in Jordan. Petra Mobile Payment Services, a subsidiary of Orange Jordan, launched it in early 2020. Since then, it has successfully become the largest e-wallet service provider in Jordan, holding over 50% of the market share. The platform boasts over 1.7 million registered wallets and offers a wide range of services. These include local and international money transfers, bill payments, QR code payments, e-vouchers, sub-savings accounts, and even a Visa card for global shopping. All these services are supervised by the Central Bank of Jordan. **A Step Towards a More Advanced Financial and Insurance Ecosystem** Orange Jordan sees this new partnership as a continuation of its efforts to build a more comprehensive and innovative digital financial ecosystem. By bringing financial and insurance services together on one platform, they're making financial protection solutions more accessible to everyone and driving Jordan's digital transformation forward. Orange Jordan serves over five million customers across the Kingdom, supported by a vast network of about 300 stores and sites and around 1,600 employees. It's also part of the global Orange Group, which operates in 26 countries and serves over 310 million customers worldwide.
