OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelex Insurance Services' new insurance
booking and educational website is a direct result of feedback from surveys,
personal interviews and focus groups.  Travelex polled its agent partners and
direct consumers to find that users needed a site that made learning about and
buying travel insurance simple from start to finish.


"The new travelexinsurance.com website allows us to deliver comprehensive
information to interested parties in a fresh and manageable way," stated
Michael J. Ambrose, President of Travelex Insurance Services.  "This new depth
of information exchange drives added insurance sales, which is good for
consumers, for our agency partners and for Travelex."


Tools for Everyone
Whether you want to learn about the peace of mind travel protection can
provide, compare Travelex plans side-by-side or just a quick method to
purchase, their new site has it all such as:
    --  Powerful Quoting Tool: To quickly research costs for multiple plans.
    --  Product Comparison Tool: To view comprehensive details for multiple
        plans side-by-side. Plans can be "hidden" from view as choices are
        narrowed.
    --  Fast Direct-To-Buy Process:  For those who already know what they want
        to buy they can go directly to the purchase page from the homepage.
    --  Quick Product Views: Available on the homepage for short highlights of
        each product.
    --  Educational Sections: To find the numerous ways travel insurance can
        protect travelers from the unexpected, the latest news from Travelex
and
        what's hot in the industry.

    --  Popular Features Section: To discover what plan benefits are currently
        in high demand.





More to Come
Additional innovations for the website are already in the works.  Plans
include a completely revamped "Agent Only" section of the site to be
introduced to their agent partners later this year.
