June 10, 2025

In a dynamic and highly regulated industry like insurance, the need for speed, security and seamless connectivity is non-negotiable. That’s why Sunrise Exchange by Ebix Australia is the go-to transacting solution for many of the industry’s most trusted insurance professionals, brokers, underwriting agencies and insurers.

At Ebix Australia we don’t just build software, we connect an entire ecosystem. For over two decades, we have been the trusted digital infrastructure behind millions of insurance interactions, and at the heart of this ecosystem is Sunrise Exchange: a widely adopted insurance transacting platform supporting a significant portion of the market.
