Broker Commission & Economics

Commission structure:

Parametric products typically carry broker commissions in the 10–15% range on written premium, competitive with specialty E&S markets. Founding brokers on the ParaSure platform receive preferred commission schedules — contact hello@parasure.xyz for the full schedule.

Minimum premiums:

  • Individual policies: $2,500–$5,000 minimum annual premium
  • Best-fit accounts: $500K+ annual revenue with measurable weather exposure
  • Commercial sweet spot: $5,000–$50,000 annual premium
  • Revenue per placement:

    At a 12% commission on a $10,000 annual premium, you're earning $1,200 per bound policy. A book of 25 accounts generates $30,000 in commission income — plus renewals.

    The renewal advantage:

    Parametric products have high renewal retention once a client experiences a payout. The 47-second settlement experience converts skeptical clients into advocates.

    How to position the fee conversation:

    You're not selling coverage. You're selling certainty — the certainty that when a storm hits, cash arrives in their account automatically while their competitors are still filing claims. Price the certainty, not the coverage.
