About

Travelers acquired roughly 60% of the company in August 2018 for about C$16 million, with the founders retaining just over a third; Zensurance continues to operate under its own brand with Yusuf as CEO.
Backers
Travelers holds a ~60% majority stake since August 2018; a C$1M seed preceded it in 2016
