“We asked millennials about the types of insurance that would meet their needs, and we built a completely new insurance product,” said Beth Maerz, Vice President of Customer Experience and Innovation for Personal Insurance at Travelers. “Traverse is easy to buy online, it moves with you and it is customizable so you can purchase the coverage that fits your lifestyle.”

There are three options to choose from, all of which include personal liability and identity theft protection:
