We are Hellas Direct and we’re here for good

On paper, we are a digital insurance company. Between us, we are a savvy tech company that, up to now, offers fair-priced insurance, as well as finance and mobility solutions.

Since 2012 our main goal has been one: change the Greek insurance sector forever. Through innovation, motivation, and determination we strive to make things right. We are now more than 200 rebels, thinkers, pioneers. It all began with 2 of us though:
Alexis Pantazis and Emilios Markou.

What drives us

At Hellas Direct, our mission is clear: we strive to redefine insurance in underserved markets across Europe.

2012
Our 1st contract was sold and we couldn’t have been more excited. Of course we didn’t know what the future would hold.
2014
We were the first to launch the timeline, the ability to choose insurance by the day. That was the 1st step to change insurance for good, since it then became an industry norm. 
2014
We entered the friendly settlement. This way we left our 1st real mark in the Greek insurance market. 
2015
We launched FastTrack and changed claims in people’s minds. No paperwork, no delays, just claims handling in its fastest form. 
2018
We launched our home insurance in Greece and Cyprus, which was the 2nd country to enter our expansion. 
2019
We acquired Rescueline in Cyprus, making even more steps to offer a holistic experience in insurance. 
2020
We launched our motorbike insurance, putting even more vehicles in our fleet. 
2021
We launched wallet+, our 1st and only (up to now) financial tool. 
2022
We expanded in the Romanian market with a huge bang!
