Power has partnered with bolttech, a leading global insurance technology company, to expand access to insurance through Power’s Protect marketplace.

The partnership brings together Power’s workplace-based financial wellness platform and bolttech’s insurance technology capabilities to help workers compare and access health and motor insurance options from trusted providers in one place.

Through Protect, workers can access insurance within the same Power experience they already use to manage salary advances, savings and credit. This makes insurance part of a broader financial wellness journey, rather than a separate or complicated process.

The partnership will also support more flexible payment options, including monthly, annual and customised plans, helping reduce the barrier of large upfront premiums that can make quality insurance cover difficult for many working people to access.

“Protect has always been a critical part of how we think about financial wellness,” said Andrew Kuiyaki, General Manager – Kenya at Power. “Our partnership with bolttech allows us to bring stronger insurance access into the workplace, in a way that is easier to compare, easier to understand and better aligned with how people manage money day to day.”

Bente Krogmann, General Manager, bolttech Kenya said “At bolttech, our mission has always been to make protection and financial services more accessible to everyone. Partnering with Power is a natural extension of that vision – together, we are bringing insurance and holistic financial wellness tools directly to workers and employers across Kenya. This partnership reflects our commitment to building an ecosystem where financial security is not a privilege, but a standard that every Kenyan worker can access.”

Insurance uptake in Kenya remains low, particularly among working populations who often have to rely on savings, borrowing or informal support when emergencies arise. By combining Power’s employer and partner network with bolttech’s insurance technology, the partnership aims to make insurance more accessible, practical and relevant for workers.

The enhanced Protect marketplace will roll out progressively across Power’s employer and partner network in the coming months.
