Being a guarantor of a friend, if he does not settle with the pending commitments, then will I be responsible for such commitments, or will the project protect me in any way?
So if your friend does not pay what he/she has promissed, then you, as policy holder, are liable to pay oustanding amounts (ie MTPL insurance) or you just don't get what you've been promissed from your friend (ie casco insurance). If you have more quesstions join Vouchforme telegram https://t.me/InsurePal |

We are proud to announce that we have successfully fired up the VouchForMe platform! For now, we are running it in our software garage, just to make sure all pistons are going up and down smoothly and that nothing is overheating. But yaay, it works! And we are really excited about you taking it for a test drive soon! User experience (UX) optimization Well, before we do just that, you should be happy to know that we have a couple of UX gurus in our team who are relentlessly testing the platform from the user’s perspective. They are digging out bugs, pushing the software engineers to make stuff smooth and easy to use, and regularly giving copywriters a hard time if they find a missing piece of text or a bad explanation in the user interface. They are doing all that because they think bad UX is not the user’s fight to fight. And they are right, and we love them. Until they knock at your door. Putting it all together The UX improvements, of course, come extra to a lot of other stuff that is also going on on the engineering side right now. There is always those final few lines of code missing here and there — simply because a software product (like many others) is best viewed as work in progress anyway. So if anyone thought that after launch there is a three-month vacation, the joke is on them. Also important, the platform is actually several pieces of software mounted together: backend, frontend, blockchain, messaging, payment components, etc. Moreover, even though each piece is made using the finest technology and talent available, the interactions among the parts and their overall functioning once they are integrated into a single solution need to be tested and improved over and over. UX and integration… — It translates to trial and error and improvement. A bit like fine-tuning an orchestra. Stradivari violins, world-class musicians — no matter how good the tools and the people operating them, you need to test, rehearse, miss a tone, do it better the next time. Until you are happy with the sound of it. https://medium.com/vouchforme/product-development-update-october-566fa8e8b2f4 |

Endorsee Family members, friends and colleagues endorse you for being a diligent driver which enables you to save money on an insurance policy. Endorser Endorsing friends, family members, and colleagues for being diligent drivers opens up the possibility to receive a returned endorsement and save money on the insurance policy. Each endorsement is also rewarded in IPL tokens to be used as one wishes. Endorsee: the one being endorsed Being a safe and exemplary driver means that there was probably not a lot of car accidents you have been involved in the past. Or if you were, then probably it was not your fault. However, you still pay the same premium for car insurance as someone that’s not as good of a driver as you are. Now you can finally stop paying for the mistakes of bad drivers. With a trusted endorser who will financially guarantee for your exemplary behavior you have the ability to lower the cost of your insurance premium. You have the propensity to receive multiple endorsements and give your friends the possibility to vouch for you with the amount they feel most comfortable with. Your endorser will only be financially responsible if you cause damage by your own fault. Endorser: the one who endorses We all have friends who are safe drivers whom we feel comfortable riding in a car with. VouchForMe gives you the opportunity to guarantee for their exemplary behavior. When your friend claims an insurance policy, they have the opportunity to invite you to join the VouchForMe platform and vouch for their safe driving. After registering, you are able to compare your friends insurance policy, how many endorsements they have, and how many days you have left to complete the endorsement. Each endorser can decide for themselves the amount will they vouch for their friend. For making a social proof endorsement, your friend will end up with a considerable premium discount, whereas you`ll receive an immediate incentive in the form of IPL tokens. Vision VouchForMe brings out the essence of trust in a smart digital way and improves the risk selection process. By enhancing trust among peers, it enables the social proof of an individual to be locked into the ledger. Therefore, it can and will self-regulate without the need of an industry-funded regulatory body. This, whilst continuously allowing us to create new attractive solutions, addressing both; the challenges of today and those of tomorrow. VouchForMe users will be able to get endorsed for their diligent behaviour and save money with it. Whether it is a car, home, or business insurance, we got you covered.

VouchForMe AMA October 2018 Recap VouchForMe hosted October Ask Me Anything session on Reddit last Friday. For all who weren’t there here is a short recap. Q: Will there be any detailed reports from conferences I see the team is all over the world in last month? A: Our team members were attending events and conferences literally across the globe presenting VouchForMe. We are gathering our insights and will publish a full recap already this week. Q: How many insurance companies are working with you at the moment? A: As mentioned in our previous posts, we are currently in discussions with nine interested parties for possible business collaboration. Q: Is Charlie Shrem advisor of the project now, is it not dangеrous from future KYC if VouchForMe wants to work in the USA? A: Charlie Shrem is enthusiastic about many different projects which are disrupting the existing business models. He recognized VouchForMe as one of these. Q: When Moon? Moon-soon.  Q: Will the pilot include the three products (2018) or do you plan to launch them separately? We are developing one platform that will be used for different solutions. In the pilot, we will first focus on the insurance solution as we feel that focus is necessary to get an optimal product. After that subsequent versions will be released. Q: In the UK, apartment rental deposits are a pain point the queen went as far as making a decree to limit security deposits. In 2019, rental (letting) deposits will be capped. This has landlords worried that many renters will simply avoid paying their last month’s rent and walk away from the deposit. Explain how Social Proof could help build tenant/landlord trust in such a scenario. What VouchForMe does by collecting endorsements for tenants in the form of social proof, is guaranteeing to the landlord that his tenant is indeed a reliable renter. When a person is part of the VouchForMe platform it can be said he or she is more trustworthy. Q: Last August, Lučka Čokl joined your team in the capacity of CMO. Can you tell us what the spear points of her marketing strategy are, and the execution thereof so far? The entire VouchForMe team is concentrated on launching our product, so are Lučka’s efforts as well. We are working on the launch plan including communication and advertising strategies to onboard our first clients in our target markets on the level of B2C as well as B2B. Q: How many partners do you currently have under NDA and when is the plan to disclose their names and scope of cooperation? A: As mentioned earlier we are currently in discussions with nine different interested parties. Once the deals are finalized, and projects involving business partners are ready to be launched, we will be able to disclose the names and the scope of cooperation. Q: When will I be able to u get insurance through the VouchForMe platform and how will customers be paying for insurance? A: VouchForMe itself is not an insurance provider. An insurance carrier still does insurance. What VouchForMe will provide is the opportunity to lower the cost of the insurance premium with social proof. For more updates stay tuned and join the conversations on our social media. |

Short stories: Interview with Matt Peterman, founder of VouchForMe This short story is a bit different from the rest of the series — with a reason. This time we have put our founder and CEO Matt Peterman into the spotlight and asked him a few questions regarding company evolution and product strategy. 1.Hi, Matt, it seems the past few months have been very busy despite the proverbially quiet summer months. We have read a lot about the product and about the business development side of the VouchForMe project. It’s true. The summer has been busy and exciting because of discussions with clients that are keen to explore our solutions in insurance and blockchain. During the last three months, we have met with more than 15 companies from the insurance and property rental sectors. We have undergone a successful rebranding and chose a brand name which nails down the essence and vision of our platform. We have conducted workshops to better understand the motives that drive our future end-users and used that to fine tune our product in order to achieve a better market fit. At the same time, our development team has released the alpha version of the platform which we have been testing and adapting to our clients’ needs, mainly insurance companies and rental agencies. 2. When you say platform and products, it seems that there is more than a single release coming out. We have been active on multiple levels, testing the social proof concept and platform at a series of workshops and meetings with clients and other stakeholders that we need to work with: banks, regulators, exchanges, blockchain network representatives etc. Their feedback made us realize that our platform might need to support multiple products, depending on target market specifics. For example: challenges within various categories of the insurance business are very much similar, but if you compare those to the property rental business, we see fundamental differences that our product would need to support. As it seems at the moment, the VouchForMe platform features may develop in three directions: VouchForMe Insurance, VouchForMe Rental, and VouchForMe Base. read more https://medium.com/vouchforme/short-stories-interview-with-matt-peterman-founder-of-vouchforme-15fe69471c00 |

We walk the talk, and this is why we are joining the Future of Trust Summit in the Netherlands. VouchForMe co-founder and CEO @MTJPeterman will contribute to a roundtable discussion on how trust can be digitalized with #blockchain. @DutchChain #insurtech https://futureoftrust.eu/Future of Trust Summit Collaborate in a curated roundtable setting in the historic heart of Dutch democracy, the Hall of Knights, in the Hague. The 21st-century challenges are decentralized yet interconnected, and thus cannot be solved by a single organization or software platform. To solve these challenges, we require the entire networks of organizations and individuals that operate on a new type of public-private infrastructure allowing them to achieve common goals. We call these networks ecosystems. Join the 250+ selected international pioneers, leaders, venturers, and creators who all work at the forefront of a societal and economic transformation powered by breakthrough technologies, finding new ways to co-create the future together and move forward. Work in a multi-disciplinary, multi-stakeholder environment and gain a deep understanding of how the 21st-century challenges can be articulated. The Summit provides all stakeholders with a crucial input and context awareness necessary to contribute effectively to the co-creation of decentralized solutions that support the ecosystems. The Future of Trust Summit kicks off of the Blockchaingers Open Innovation Program 2018-2019. The follow-up agenda consists of 15 tech, legal, and regulatory deep dives that prepare all participants for the third edition of the largest Blockchain Hackathon in the world where new decentralized solutions are launched. The second edition of the annual Future of Trust Summit is hosted by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, StartupDelta and DutchChain. The Summit is part of a series of events “Knights of the Future”, organized by StartupDelta. Leverage the momentum at the Future of Trust Summit where alliances grow, agendas are set, and business gets done. |

Pieces of the puzzle called the VouchForMe Social Proof Platform are continuing to be put together, with great care and enthusiasm, by our team. In the last Product Development update post we explained the nitty-gritty details about the progress on smart contracts, back-end development, and front-end fine tuning. For the peak of the summer, we chose to focus on two critical aspects of our product: money and legal compliance. We couldn’t quite decide whether to call them hot or cool topics; we just knew they needed to be done, no matter the chills they might give us. Online Payments Vouching is the focal point of the whole VouchForMe concept. Moreover, when we say ‘vouch for’ or ‘endorse’ we are dead serious: VouchForMe needs users to really put their money where their mouth is. In our case, this means that each endorsement (that brings so many benefits to both the endorser and the endorsee) will need to be supported with the endorser’s “flexible friend” called Visa, MasterCard or something of the sort. What this requires from us is to connect with a reliable and flexible credit card processing partner that supports the specifics of the VouchForMe use case: the endorser’s credit card stays on file only as a guarantee. Unlike an online store, if everything goes well, VouchForMe doesn’t touch the card for weeks, months, well, preferably never. Legal Framework Now that the prototype platform is up and running internally for demo and testing purposes, we were able to go through the whole user journey with our legal team. They needed to see and understand what specific legal issues arise when users interact with the product. For example, the endorser needs to be aware of the vital elements of an insurance policy in question — which needs to be, on the other hand, treated as a piece of confidential personal information. Many other steps of the user journey also require a similar kind of balance between practicality and the right side of the regulation. All in all, what the legal proof-check will to boil down to is, first, minor adjustments of the user experience so that legal compliance can be ticked off, and second, a nice little document or two called Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. Yummy! (Don’t worry, we’ll share those two candies with you, too.) https://medium.com/vouchforme/product-development-update-august-557d90cf7267 |
