Key Differences in Business Owner’s Policy

Self-Serve Platform Versus Contact Pie

Embroker offers an online BOP quote on its digital platform. Pie directs BOP buyers to contact the company to start a quote through its website and does not describe the three-minute self-service flow it advertises for workers’ compensation. 4 8

Size Screens Versus a Small-Business Bundle

Embroker publishes fewer than 100 employees, under $10 million revenue and a physical location including a home office. Pie markets BOP as liability and property insurance customized and bundled for small businesses, without those numeric screens on the reviewed page, and cross-sells it alongside workers’ compensation, cyber and commercial auto on other small-business product pages. 4 8

Interruption and Property Each Names

Pie describes commercial property for building, inventory and equipment against fire, explosion, smoke, vandalism or wind; commercial liability for bodily injury, property damage and advertising injury; and business interruption for payroll and temporary relocation after a covered catastrophe. Embroker describes commercial property damage or theft, third-party bodily injury and property damage, and business interruption as loss of income, without naming payroll or relocation on the reviewed page. 8 4

What to Confirm in Business Owner’s Policy Quotes

  • Ask Pie which partner will write you versus the issuer on Embroker’s platform. 8 4
  • Compare interruption: Pie’s payroll and relocation wording versus Embroker’s loss-of-income description. 8 4
  • Check Embroker’s 100-employee and home-office screens against Pie partner appetite. 4 8
  • Request limits and named perils; neither page publishes dollar figures. 4 8
