Guidewire and Insurity Integration for Insurance Premium Accounting

Larger MGAs, wholesalers, and delegated authority programs often rely on core insurance platforms such as Guidewire and Insurity to run underwriting, policy administration, and billing operations. These platforms are built to support carrier-grade insurance operations. They are not designed to serve as full premium accounting systems for MGA and wholesale finance teams. Premium Accounting integrates with Guidewire and Insurity to allow organizations to keep their core systems while running insurance-specific premium accounting without spreadsheets, custom ledger builds, or manual reconciliation.

Why Premium Accounting Does Not Belong Inside Core Insurance Systems

Guidewire and Insurity are designed to be systems of record for insurance operations.

They excel at:

  • Policy administration and lifecycle management
  • Underwriting workflows and rating orchestration
  • Billing and operational transactions

Premium accounting introduces requirements that go beyond operational processing:

  • Allocation of partial payments across premium, fees, taxes, and commissions
  • Handling of installments, premium finance, and return premium
  • Reconciliation across carriers, producers, and programs
  • Audit-ready transaction traceability
  • Month-end close and financial reporting needs

When accounting logic is forced into core systems, organizations rely on custom development or spreadsheets to close the gaps.

How Premium Accounting Works With Guidewire and Insurity

Premium Accounting integrates with Guidewire and Insurity as an external premium accounting engine.

The integration model works as follows:

  • Policy, billing, and transaction data is ingested from Guidewire or Insurity
  • Insurance-specific premium accounting logic is applied in Premium Accounting
  • Invoices, payments, allocations, and balances are tracked in a dedicated premium subledger
  • Clean, structured financial outcomes are synchronized to your accounting ledger

Guidewire and Insurity continue to manage core insurance operations. Premium Accounting manages premium accounting. To understand why this decoupled approach works, see how organizations replace insurance accounting without changing their management system.

What Gets Tracked Outside of Core Systems

Premium Accounting tracks the financial detail required by accounting teams that core insurance platforms are not built to manage.

This includes:

  • Invoice-level premium detail
  • Payment application and allocation outcomes
  • Receivables and payables by carrier and producer
  • Installments, premium finance, and adjustments
  • Netting and settlement activity
  • Full transaction history with audit trail

This separation keeps core systems focused on underwriting and policy operations while accounting data becomes accurate, auditable, and explainable.

Designed for Enterprise MGA and Delegated Authority Accounting Teams

Accounting teams supporting Guidewire or Insurity environments often face:

  • Custom-built accounting extensions
  • Spreadsheet-based reconciliation
  • Complex close and audit processes

Premium Accounting addresses these challenges by:

  • Centralizing premium accounting in a dedicated subledger
  • Replacing custom logic and spreadsheets with rules-based allocation
  • Providing transaction-level traceability for audits and carrier reviews
  • Supporting close, reporting, and settlement at scale

This reduces operational risk without disrupting core insurance systems.

Works With Your Existing Accounting Ledger

Premium Accounting integrates with the accounting ledger you already use.

Supported accounting ledgers include:

  • QuickBooks Online
  • NetSuite
  • Xero
  • Workday

Premium Accounting synchronizes insurance-ready results to the ledger, allowing organizations running Guidewire or Insurity to maintain clean financial reporting without forcing core systems to behave like accounting platforms.

  • Use Guidewire or Insurity as core insurance platforms
