Canopy Insurance Verification — QCR Integration

Overview

  • Provider: Canopy (canopyconnect.com) — insurance verification API
  • Integration target: QuikCarRental (QCR)
  • This was the last missing piece for QCR go-live

Economics

  • Cost per verification: $2 (Quik Nation pays)
  • Fee charged to customer: $3.99 per verification
  • Margin: ~$1.99 per verification (~50%)

Scope

  • Verify insurance for EVERY renter, even if they buy insurance through QCR
  • Mandatory step in rental flow — no verified insurance = no rental
  • Both personal insurance verification AND QCR-purchased insurance must go through Canopy

Timeline

  • Sandbox API docs arriving: 2026-03-11 (from Canopy)
  • Integration deadline: Friday 2026-03-14 (integrated into QCR)
  • QCR go-live: April 1, 2026 (FIRM)

Technical Notes

  • Sandbox environment available for testing
  • Will need SSM parameter: /quik-nation/qcr/CANOPY_API_KEY (once received)
  • Integration point: rental booking flow, before payment step
  • Must store verification result with rental record for compliance

Status

  • Receive sandbox API docs from Canopy (2026-03-11)
  • Create backend integration (GraphQL mutation + Canopy API client)
  • Add insurance verification step to rental booking flow (frontend + mobile)
  • Test in sandbox
  • Deploy to develop for tester verification
  • Production deploy before April 1
