What are the benefits to their business?
"World Nomads has provided IVHQ a means of providing trusted and flexible travel insurance in a simple and transparent manner to volunteers."
What's been their most effective approach?
"We have seen two effective approaches for integrating World Nomads to our website. The first is directing volunteers to the quote widget page. The second is through targeted emails that prompt volunteers to ensure they purchase a suitable travel insurance policy before they leave home."
