According to the company, it will initially offer curated insurance products such as term life and health insurance through partnerships with leading insurers. It also plans to launch embedded insurance products based on user behaviour, examples include travel insurance linked to card usage, cyber fraud covers, and device protection tied to e-commerce activity.

This marks Jupiter’s entry into the insurance space as part of its broader strategy to become a full-stack financial services provider. The firm already holds an NBFC licence in 2023 and a PPI licence in 2024.

Jupiter was last valued at around $710 million during a $86 million Series C round in December 2021. It has raised over $160 million to date from QED Investors, Peak XV and Matrix Partners, among others.
