What Allianz Travel does

Allianz Travel Schweiz (legally AWP P&C S.A.) is the Swiss consumer-facing brand of the Allianz Partners group's travel insurance and assistance business. The company sells a portfolio of travel protection products direct-to-consumer through a multilingual Swiss website and online premium calculator, including single-trip insurance, annual multi-trip insurance, Schengen visa insurance, trip and course cancellation cover, rental car deductible insurance, ski/snowboard cover, and Swiss-domestic holiday insurance. All products are bundled with a Swiss-based 24/7 emergency assistance hotline offering telemedical consultation and worldwide medical support.

The company operates as part of the Allianz Partners network, which provides access to over 900,000 specialists across five continents and backstops the Swiss unit with 22,600+ group employees. Customers receive a Certificate of Insurance in English alongside their policy and general insurance conditions (AVB), supporting international travel and visa compliance requirements. The technology stack is a standard insurance distribution and servicing platform: web-based self-service purchasing, a customer portal (allianz-protection.com) for policy management and claims, and an emergency hotline operation. No proprietary AI, patents, or non-insurance technology differentiators are disclosed.

Revenue is generated through insurance premiums collected at point of sale, with single-trip and Schengen products priced on a pay-as-you-go basis and annual policies sold on an annual subscription cadence. The go-to-motion is direct-to-consumer, with no disclosed third-party distribution, broker channel, or B2B enterprise customers. The brand carries a 4.7/5 customer satisfaction score across 16,201 eKomi reviews. Coverage excludes travel to active war zones per EDA (Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs) advisories.
