UK shopping portal Zoom.co.uk
has entered an exclusive partnership with Ohio.co.uk
to provide users with access to quotes on travel, car, and household
insurance.
Ohio will also provide financial services such as ISAs and life assurance,
24 hours a day online.
“In today’s climate of fierce competition, the personal
finance market has become increasingly complex and confusing
for the consumer,” said Eva Pascoe, managing director,
Zoom.co.uk.
“People just don’t have the time to hunt around the high street
for the best offers and more importantly do not realise they
could get a better deal. Ohio on Zoom will save people time
and will help them evaluate the options available to them at
the click of a button.”
Ohio.co.uk is part of the Oughtred and Harrison Group of companies,
originally founded in 1919. The firm has seven subsidiaries
operating from 33 different locations.
“Whether you are planning on travelling for a year or buying
the car you’ve always wanted, trying to sort out your
personal finance can be a nightmare,” said John Harris, managing
director, Ohio.co.uk.
“Ohio cuts through these complexities and as our services develop,
we will give Zoom shoppers as much access and transparency as
we can when it comes to researching and selecting insurance and finance
products.”
The travel insurance facilities are already available via the
Zoom site, with motor and household insurance becoming
available to Zoom customers by the end of the year.
