What eTIMS Billing Software does for a insurance broker

eTIMS billing files a compliant tax invoice with KRA on every sale, with no manual entry. For a insurance broker, the value shows up exactly where the work is hardest.

Insurance brokers track client policies, insurer relationships, commissions and claims. Insurance broker margins come from commissions on placed policies.

Clients and insurers expect transparent placement and fair claims handling. Veira handles that as part of the same sale, so compliance is not a separate evening job.
