What Are the Insurance Products a PoSP Can Sell?

As an IRDAI-certified PoSP with Probus, advisors are authorised to sell a carefully curated range of pre-approved insurance products — each addressing a genuine and growing need in the Indian market. The demand for these products spans every income group, age bracket, and geography, giving PoSP advisors a wide and consistent customer base to work with.

Travel Insurance policy

Travel Insurance Policy

Travel — whether domestic or international — comes with uncertainties that no traveller can fully anticipate. Flight cancellations, medical emergencies abroad, loss of baggage, trip interruptions, and passport loss are situations that can turn a planned journey into a financial burden. Travel insurance provides coverage against these events, making it one of the most relevant products for customers who travel frequently for work or leisure. With India's travel volumes rising steadily, the conversation around travel insurance has never been easier to start.

vehicle insurance

Motor Insurance Policy

Motor insurance is not optional in India — it is a legal requirement for every vehicle owner under the Motor Vehicles Act. With crores of cars and two-wheelers registered across the country and new vehicles being added to the roads every day, motor insurance represents one of the largest and most consistent markets a PoSP advisor can tap into. Beyond the mandatory third-party cover, comprehensive motor policies offer customers protection against theft, accidental damage, and natural calamities — making renewals and upgrades an ongoing opportunity.

health insurance policy

Health Insurance Policy

The cost of medical care in India has been rising significantly, and a single hospitalisation can place considerable strain on a family's savings. Health insurance has transitioned from being a discretionary purchase to an essential financial requirement for households across income levels. As a Probus PoSP, advisors have access to a range of health insurance products — from individual and family floater plans to senior citizen coverage and critical illness policies — enabling them to address the specific needs of diverse customer profiles.

home insurance policy

Home Insurance Policy

For most Indian families, a home is the single largest financial investment of their lifetime. Yet home insurance remains one of the most underpenetrated categories in the country. A home insurance policy protects against financial loss arising from fire, floods, earthquakes, theft, and structural damage — risks that are real and increasingly relevant given changing weather patterns and urban expansion. For PoSP advisors, this represents a significant opportunity to serve customers who own property but have not yet thought about protecting it.

 term insurance policy

Term Life Insurance

Term insurance is the most straightforward and cost-effective way for an individual to ensure their family's financial security in their absence. Despite its importance, life insurance penetration in India remains low — meaning a large segment of the population is either uninsured or underinsured. A PoSP advisor is well-positioned to bridge this gap by helping customers understand the value of term coverage and selecting a plan suited to their income, liabilities, and family needs. The conversations around term insurance are among the most meaningful an advisor will have — and among the most impactful for the customers they serve.

personal accident policy

Personal Accident Insurance

Accidents do not announce themselves, and the financial consequences of one — whether it results in temporary disability, permanent incapacity, or loss of life — can be severe for the affected family. Personal accident insurance provides a financial safety net covering accidental death, partial or total disability, and in some cases, loss of income during the recovery period. It is an affordable product with broad relevance, particularly for breadwinners, self-employed individuals, and daily wage workers — groups that often lack any formal financial protection against such events.

Frequently Asked Questions ( FAQs )

A PoSP (Point of Sales Person) is an IRDAI-certified individual authorised to sell pre-approved insurance products directly to customers. Introduced by IRDAI to widen insurance access across India, the role involves understanding customer needs, recommending suitable policies, and providing support through the policy lifecycle. A PoSP registered with an IRDAI-licensed broker like Probus can represent multiple insurers — making the advisory role more flexible and valuable for customers.

Getting a PoSP certificate involves four steps. First, register with an IRDAI-licensed company or broker like Probus and submit the required documents. Second, complete the mandatory 15-hour IRDAI training programme provided by Probus at no cost. Third, appear for and pass the IRDAI PoSP certification examination. Upon clearing the exam, an official IRDAI PoSP certificate is issued, legally authorising the holder to sell pre-approved insurance products. With Probus, the entire process is handled digitally and completed within 7 to 15 days.

A traditional insurance agent is tied to a single insurance company and can only sell that company’s products. A PoSP registered with an IRDAI-licensed broker like Probus can access and sell products from multiple insurers — giving customers greater choice and giving the advisor a more versatile portfolio. Additionally, a PoSP works exclusively with standard pre-approved products, which means no underwriting is required and policies can be issued quickly and digitally.

No prior experience is required. The mandatory 15-hour IRDAI training programme is designed to equip candidates from all backgrounds with the necessary product knowledge, regulatory understanding, and compliance awareness. Probus provides this training to all registered candidates online, at no cost, before they appear for the certification exam.

Registration with Probus is completely free. The only cost involved is a nominal fee for the IRDAI PoSP certification examination, which is a standard regulatory requirement.
