Pfefferminzia: Please summarize the meaning, purpose and benefits of the Allyz app.
Mareike Steinmann Baptist: Allyz goes beyond traditional insurance coverage and offers users additional assistance and services. From travel and health services, for example lounge access in the event of flight delays or doctor chats, to cyber security, for example VPN tunnels in the hotel for secure surfing: with the app you have a digital companion on your mobile phone that can do that makes daily life easier and safer.
What do you have to do to be able to use this?
Steinmann Baptist: In principle, anyone can use the basic functions of Allyz. To do this, users download the app and register. Activation of all functions requires a valid travel insurance policy.

And what role does Allyz Security play?
Steinmann Baptist: Allyz Security is the preventative part of our cyber care product. This service focuses on protecting customers’ data and devices from various threats. It offers a range of antivirus and anti-malware features, including safe browsing and secure online banking and shopping. It also offers VPN, password managers and an ID monitoring tool to ensure that customers’ data and digital identities are protected and connections are secure. Each person can currently test the cyber care services free of charge for six months and then has the choice of whether they only pay for the cyber services or whether they take out insurance to protect themselves even more comprehensively.
“Complete package for digital life”
Which house provides virus protection?
Steinmann Baptist: Allyz Security is provided by our partner F-Secure, also a specialized cyber security provider.
Aren’t you entering an area that should be reserved for specialists like G-Data or Norton?
Steinmann Baptist: In contrast to classic providers such as G-Data or Norton, with the overall Allyz Security package we offer comprehensive protection for digital life that goes beyond the purely preventative cyber protection of classic providers. Customers can also receive insurance cover, for example for online banking, as well as support in the event of damage, for example if their online reputation is damaged.
How can such an app be financed from travel insurance contributions, and what do you get out of it?
Steinmann Baptist: Allyz is the evolution of our business model. As an insurer, we understand our role in such a way that our service promise goes beyond just providing people with insurance and that we make the lives of our customers easier and simpler with digital solutions. We believe this platform model is the future of insurance. We pursue a lean investment strategy on our platforms. This means we build it step by step and develop it based on feedback from our customers and business partners.
“More platforms for health and mobility will follow”
How should the app develop further in the future?
Steinmann Baptist: Our platform strategy spans all of our core businesses with a common goal: to provide our customers with security in every aspect of their lives. This means we offer Allyz for the areas of travel, cyber care and home & living. In addition, further platforms for the areas of health and mobility will follow.
Where does the name Allyz actually come from?
Steinmann Baptist: The name shows a close synergy with the Allianz name and brand. As a one-stop shop platform, Allyz supports customers from A to Z.
