When our founders struggled to find affordable healthcare coverage for their visiting family members back in 2000, little did they know their personal challenge would spark a revolution in the travel insurance industry. Today, their brainchild—Insubuy—celebrates an incredible 25-year journey that began in a Virginia apartment and grew into the premier online marketplace for travel insurance. 

Born from Necessity, Built for Everyone 

Our founders understood firsthand the stress and uncertainty that comes with inadequate insurance coverage while traveling. Their solution? Create the industry's very first online travel medical insurance marketplace—a pioneering idea that would forever change how travelers protect themselves abroad.
