While many pet insurers in the US have seen great success with Direct-to-consumer channels, Rainwalk is looking to dramatically improve market penetration by investing in new, alternative, and tech-forward distribution channels historically overlooked by incumbents.

According to American Pet Products Association’s (APPA) National Pet Owners Survey, 151.1 million, or 70% of, households in the U.S. reported owning a pet, and will spend an estimated $32.3 billion on vet care and products (pharmaceuticals and items purchased through veterinary clinics, excluding food and treats) in 2023, up from $31.4 billion in actual costs in 2020.

The Global Pet Insurance Market size values at $8 bn in 2023, and is projected to reach $18 bn by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14% from 2023 to 2030

By prioritizing product design, seamless pet insurance integrations and exceptional operations support, our team has demonstrated continued channel growth opportunities that are scalable and cost-effective
