In addition, Assureful plans to use the funding to speed up its product roadmap and customer acquisition efforts.
“We’re thrilled to close this initial funding round and have the support of investors who believe in our vision to reinvent insurance for e-commerce sellers,” said Rohit Nair, founder & CEO of Assureful.

This capital will help us continue enhancing our proprietary technology and product offerings as we scale up to serve this fast-growing customer base.
