Ebix announced it has modernized its EbixExchange connectivity stack and launched a new plug-and-play connector platform for insurers, brokers, MGAs, TPAs, and fintech partners. The platform is powered by technology from 1SilverBullet (1SB), which serves as the underlying provider for connector services.

With this launch, Ebix can now expose quoting, eApp, enrollment, underwriting checks, payments, and policy servicing as modular APIs that plug directly into a client's existing front end. 1SB uses a standardized connector fabric with pre‑built mappings and a developer portal so carriers and distributors can integrate largely by configuration rather than custom builds.

The unified gateway model of Ebix also means one interface can reach multiple insurers and product lines, reducing point‑to‑point maintenance.

"This initiative is about making connectivity effortless on our clients' terms," said Gagan Sethi, CEO of Ebix. "We asked a simple question - what if Ebix brought its ecosystem to the customer's technology stack? With the new capabilities in EbixExchange, we have done exactly that. We have built a connectivity layer that our clients can adopt with 1SB's technology accelerating the platform behind the scene."

From Ebix health platforms, clients can get real-time multi-carrier quoting, enrollment, eligibility data, and faster EDI handoffs within their own health portals. In P&C personal lines and commercial, MGAs and brokers can orchestrate quote-to-bind by invoking connectors for rating, third-party data, payments, and document delivery to accelerate product launches. In life insurance, distributors can enable instant-term and simplified-issue journeys within their own eApp or CRM, including prefilling applications, packaging eSign, collecting premium, issuing the policy, and writing back to the policy system through EbixExchange connectors.

In India, Ebix's brokerage operations run a comparative, multi-insurer quoting platform for insurance agents. Those carrier integrations are moving onto the EbixExchange connector fabric to speed up new-product onboarding and to cut the upkeep of point-to-point links.
