Matic deepened its push into embedded insurance on June 24, 2026, with a strategic growth investment from Primus Capital and the acquisition of Policygenius’ property and casualty portfolio in Columbus, Ohio. The portfolio includes nearly 30,000 policies across home, auto, flood, umbrella and other personal lines, giving Matic a larger operational base in a market where distribution and servicing now matter as much as quote volume.

The deal is strategically tidy. Policygenius is narrowing its focus to core life insurance, and Matic’s transition page says the handoff covers only property and casualty policies, not life coverage. Policygenius says it has served more than 30 million people and placed more than 320,000 life insurance policies, which explains why the P&C book was valuable but non-core. For Matic, the asset fits a model built around embedding insurance into the home and auto ownership journey, where the platform can sit inside a mortgage, auto, or housing workflow instead of acting like a standalone comparison site.

Matic said the new capital will go toward its proprietary insurance platform, its embedded partnership network, and additional inorganic growth opportunities. That matters because embedded insurance at scale is an infrastructure game, not a marketing trick. Matic says it works with more than 70 carrier partners and over 100 distribution partners across mortgage origination, mortgage servicing, banking, credit unions, auto financing, real estate and other channels. Its public site currently describes a network of 60+ A-rated home and auto carriers and more than 100 distribution partners, underscoring the breadth the company is trying to manage as it expands.

Ben Madick, Matic’s CEO and co-founder, said the company has known Primus Capital for many years and that Primus supports Matic’s vision to reimagine insurance distribution. That language signals more than a passive check. Matic raised $30 million from Vistara Growth in January 2025 and closed a $20 million Series B extension in November 2023, so Primus arrives after a steady sequence of financing rounds aimed at scaling the platform.

The broader message is clear: embedded insurance platforms are moving beyond pure lead generation. Matic is using capital, distribution reach and a transferred P&C book to own more of the workflow around placement, servicing and customer relationship management. In a market where insurers want cleaner operating homes and distributors want insurance to feel native to the journey, that combination is becoming the real prize.
