The Bridgeline API lets an insurance agency price premium financing without leaving its own tools. Send the policies you want financed and get back every down payment and term we can offer, with the APR and every payment worked out to the cent. Each quote also comes with a page your client can open on their phone, compare the options and tell your broker which one they want. It runs on the same pricing and the same rules as the Bridgeline portal, so a quote from the API matches what your team sees there.

​
Who it’s for

Agencies that want financing inside their agency management system, comparative rater, client portal or internal tools. A developer at the agency, or a vendor working for one, builds the integration. Your producers keep working in the systems they already use.

​
How it works

1

Quote

POST /v1/quotes with the insured and their policies. You get back a quote: the full grid of options, what we assumed, whether the deal is eligible, and a hosted_url.
2

Share

Send the hosted_url to your client. They see every option on one page, pick one and tap I’m interested, with an optional note.
3

Follow up

We email your broker straight away. GET /v1/quotes/{id} shows the choice, the note and whether the email went out. Your broker finishes the deal in the Bridgeline portal.

​
What’s available today

The API is in private beta. These endpoints are live: Apart from the test helper, every endpoint works with a live key (bl_live_) or a test key (bl_test_). Test keys get real pricing with no real-world effects; see test and live mode. Applications, e-signature, loans and webhooks are on the roadmap. Until they ship, your broker takes an accepted quote forward in the Bridgeline portal.
