What makes Genki different?

✨ Insurance can be complicated and overwhelming for people. We make health insurance simple and easy to understand and buy. And our customers love us for that.

🎒 We understand nomads because we are nomads. That’s why we don’t ask customers where they are going or when they are coming back (who knows? Plans change!), we don’t ask for physical addresses, and we don’t try to mail any documents. Everything is online.

🇪🇺 We’re registered in Germany and compliant with strict German and EU regulations. Our insurance partner and risk carrier are based in Germany and France. These jurisdictions have stringent insurance regulations to protect customers.

* Genki's Terms & Conditions apply to the above in agreement between purchaser and Genki.

Happy safe travels!!
