A short editorial from the VEONIB team on why this content matters.
This video is a strategic pitch for brokers to capitalize on Aflac's direct-to-consumer expansion through Trove and Lucie, emphasizing the ease of enrollment and lucrative commissions.
The unique angle is the integration of Aflac with Lucie's ACA platform, positioning brokers to offer a complete benefits package and tap into the growing ICHRA market, a move that aligns with SEONIB's data-driven approach to optimizing sales funnels.
Brokers should watch this to understand the Aflac DTC opportunity and immediately sign up for the $50 bonus before the September deadline.
Insurance products sold directly to individuals, bypassing traditional employer group channels.
A high-level Aflac appointment allowing brokers to sell individual supplemental policies.
An organization that recruits and supports independent agents, providing contracts and training.
Software that facilitates quoting and enrollment for Affordable Care Act marketplace plans.
Supplemental coverage like accident, cancer, critical illness, and dental that complements major medical.

An employer-funded account that reimburses employees for individual health insurance premiums.
How do I get the $50 Aflac onboarding bonus?
Complete the Trove appointment, tier-one appointment, and traditional worksite contract by the end of September. Most steps take 10-15 minutes, except the worksite ethics course.
What is the difference between Trove and Lucie?
Trove is the FMO that manages contracts and carrier relationships. Lucie is the enrollment platform used to quote and enroll clients in ACA and Aflac products.
Can I sell Aflac products if I already have a worksite contract?
No, the direct-to-consumer tier-one business requires a separate contract through Trove. Worksite and DTC are separate divisions at Aflac.
What is the Aflac cancer insurance waiting period?
There is a 30-day waiting period on all tier-one cancer plans before coverage begins.
Does Aflac accident insurance pay if I have other insurance?
Yes, Aflac pays regardless of other insurance. Benefits are paid directly to the policyholder and can be used for any expenses.
What is the age limit for Aflac critical illness insurance?
Issue ages are 18 to 69, and the policy is guaranteed renewable for life.
How does Aflac dental insurance work?
It offers three tiers with no waiting periods for preventive and basic care. It uses a 'passive PPO' network covering 90% of dentists, and you can visit any dentist.
What is the commission structure for Aflac worksite products?
Worksite products pay 63% of first-year commission directly from Aflac within two days of policy issue.
Can I sell short-term disability through Aflac?
Yes, short-term disability is available through the worksite channel, not direct-to-consumer.
What is the minimum group size for Aflac worksite?
You need three or more unique policyholders, each enrolling in at least one product.
