What Link4 does

Link4 (legal name: Link4 Towarzystwo Ubezpieczeń Spółka Akcyjna) is a Polish direct insurance company founded in January 2003 as the first direct insurer in Poland. Headquartered at ul. Postępu 15 in Warsaw, the company employs over 800 staff and operates exclusively in the Polish retail insurance market, offering motor (OC/AC plus a wide range of add-ons such as Assistance, NNW, Glass, Smart Casco, and Kluczyki Plus), home and apartment, and travel insurance products, with a specialized family-focused sub-brand called LINK4Mama.

The company runs a multichannel distribution model that combines direct digital self-serve (online calculators at kalkulatory.link4.pl offering a 7% motor discount), telephone sales, and a nationwide insurance agent and broker network supported by a dedicated agent portal and regional sales managers. Underwriting is algorithmic and data-driven, using big data analytics to price individual risk, and the firm offers direct claims settlement (BLS) participation and 24/7 assistance. Link4 also sells Link4 DataXtract, an AI-powered document processing product for APAC finance teams, developed in partnership with Docupath.

Link4 is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PZU Group (Powszechny Zakład Ubezpieczeń S.A.), the largest financial conglomerate in Central-Eastern Europe, and a merger plan with PZU was signed on May 29, 2026 under Article 498 of the Polish Commercial Companies Code, pursuant to which Link4 will be absorbed into PZU. In March 2026, Link4 also acquired Singapore-based Unifiedpost Pte Ltd from Banqup Group SA, marking its first material expansion into Asia-Pacific e-Invoicing.
