Providing solutions to help our customers protect their health and financial well-being.

Our company was founded by Watson Powell in 1929 as American Republic Insurance Company. From the beginning with 200 charter policies, our company was dedicated to providing personal insurance services at an affordable price. We are in a people helping people business, and our entire team is dedicated to always being here for our customers. That’s actually where the name Wellabe comes from – the phrase “we’ll always be.” We’ll always be here for our customers, fulfilling our promises and helping them be well. Even 90-plus years later, we are still caring for our customers, pushing boundaries, embracing growth, and transforming our organization.
