The Co-operators is a Canadian insurance and financial services co-operative, formed in 1978 from the amalgamation of the Saskatchewan and Ontario co-operative insurers whose roots run back to the Co-operative Life Insurance Company founded in Regina in 1945. It is owned by Canadian co-operatives, credit union centrals and farm organizations rather than public shareholders, and writes multi-line property and casualty, home, auto, farm, travel and life insurance alongside group benefits, group retirement and savings, wealth management and institutional asset management, reporting more than $62 billion in assets under administration, nearly 7,000 employees and more than 2,800 licensed insurance representatives across Canada. Its API posture is partner-gated. There is no first-party developer portal on cooperators.ca — developer, developers, docs, api and partners subdomains do not resolve in DNS, and /developers, /developer, /api, /partners and /integrations all return HTTP 404 — while the advisor and broker channel is a set of sign-in walls (lifeportal.cooperators.ca, benefitsnowlogon.cooperators.ca, basis.cooperators.ca, illustration.cumis.com). The only public API surface in the group belongs to its embedded-insurance brand Duuo, whose Duuo Platform partner APIs cover account, quote, payment and policy issuance for tenant and event insurance behind a signed partnership agreement and issued OAuth 2.0 client credentials; the developer portal Duuo advertises at developer.duuo.ca is a Postman-hosted documentation domain that returns HTTP 404 as of 2026-07-25. No ACORD, AL3 or CSIO reference was found anywhere in the company's public materials.
The Co-operators publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Duuo Platform API. Tagged areas include Insurance, Canada, Property and Casualty, Life Insurance, and Group Benefits.
The Co-operators’ developer surface includes authentication, support, product news, engineering blog, sandbox, and 21 more developer resources.

description: 'Partner-gated embedded insurance API from Duuo, the digital insurance brand of The Co-operators. Duuo''s own
published documentation describes APIs for account, quote and policy, risk rating and payment so partners can embed tenant
and event insurance into their own applications. Access is not self-serve: partners engage the Duuo partnerships team,
sign a partnership agreement, are assigned a Partner Account Manager, and are then issued API access credentials, a partner-specific
host and the detailed API reference. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 client_credentials, with the client id and secret supplied
as an HTTP Basic header to a partner-issued token URL and the resulting bearer token sent on every call. The publicly
published operations covered quote and bind/issue for two products — event insurance (create entity, create quote, get
quote, make payment, create policy, email policy) and tenant insurance (check eligibility, update quote, add insured,
make payment) — with no claims or FNOL surface. The developer portal Duuo links to from duuo.ca, https://developer.duuo.ca/,
is a Postman-hosted documentation domain that returned HTTP 404 on 2026-07-25; the collection it published has been unpublished,
so no live public reference remains. The OpenAPI 3.1 in this repo is a derivation by API Evangelist from an Internet Archive
capture of that same Duuo-published Postman collection — ten operations across two strictly ordered product flows, with
Duuo''s own request and response examples, error shapes and Partner Accepted Testing values carried through. It is a historical,
non-live-verified reconstruction, not a provider-published spec. Consent booleans are load-bearing request fields on both
flows, there is no idempotency key on the money- and policy-binding writes, and no webhook, claims, policy-read or quote-status
operation exists.'
