Setup completes in under 60 minutes. The strategic value: recruiting moat, client trust, and exit value for the agency. White-label CRM means running the platform under **your brand** — your logo, your colors, your custom domain, your email sender — instead of the platform vendor's. For insurance agencies and IMOs, it's the difference between selling someone else's software and operating your own technology platform. ## What "White-Label" Actually Includes A real white-label CRM covers every client touchpoint: - **Custom domain** (e.g., crm.youragency.com) with auto-provisioned TLS - **Logo and color palette** applied across every screen - **Favicon** for the browser tab - **Email sender domain** (DKIM/SPF) for all platform-sent emails - **Login screen branding** — clients never see "unLocked" anywhere - **Privacy policy and terms** linked to your agency's documents - **Footer attribution** removed or replaced with your agency name - **Client Portal** branded under your domain (e.g., portal.youragency.com) If a "white-label" only swaps the logo on one page, it's not real white-label. It's a vendor logo swap. ## What's Included in unLocked CRM Max White-label is included in the **Max plan at $247/mo** — no additional vendor fees, no per-seat surcharges, no minimums. That's intentional: white-label should be infrastructure, not a premium add-on. | Feature | Standalone White-Label Vendors | unLocked CRM Max | | --- | --- | --- | | Custom domain | $300–$500/mo | Included | | Per-seat fees | $50–$100/seat | None | | Setup fees | $1,500–$5,000 one-time | None | | Client Portal branding | Often extra | Included | | Email sender (DKIM/SPF) | Often extra | Included | | FMO/IMO multi-brand | Enterprise tier only | Included | ## Why Agencies White-Label Three reasons drive the decision: **1. Recruiting moat.** When recruiting agents, branded technology is a tangible benefit. "Our agency platform" beats "we use [vendor name]" every time. **2. Client trust.** Clients who see your brand on every interaction perceive your agency as a technology-forward operation, not a reseller. **3. Exit value.** A white-labeled platform is a defensible asset. When you sell the agency, the platform is part of the brand — not a vendor relationship that ends with the sale. ## Why IMOs and FMOs White-Label For IMOs, white-label compounds at scale: - Each downline agency can run its own white-labeled environment - The IMO's master account oversees all downlines - Agents recruited under each downline see only that downline's brand - Multi-tier hierarchies (IMO → MGA → agency → producer) supported The recruiting story becomes: *"Sign with us, and we'll launch your branded CRM for every agent under you."* ## The 60-Minute White-Label Setup Most agencies complete white-label setup in under 60 minutes: 1. Configure CNAME for your custom domain (5 min) 2. Upload logo and color palette (10 min) 3. Set up DKIM/SPF for email sender domain (15 min) 4. Customize login screen and footer (10 min) 5. Configure Client Portal subdomain (10 min) 6. Test end-to-end client experience (10 min) DNS propagation can take a few hours, but the work is done in one sitting. ## Common White-Label Mistakes **Mistake 1: Forgetting the email sender.** If your CRM sends emails from "noreply@vendor.com", clients see the vendor name. Configure your domain. **Mistake 2: Not branding the Client Portal.** The Client Portal is the highest-traffic client touchpoint. Brand it. **Mistake 3: Leaving vendor branding in compliance footers.** Update privacy policy and terms links to point to your own documents. **Mistake 4: Treating it as cosmetic.** White-label is infrastructure. Commit to it across every touchpoint or don't bother. ## Bottom Line White-label isn't about hiding the vendor. It's about making the platform an extension of your brand. For agencies and IMOs serious about long-term positioning, it's table stakes — and it's included in Max. ## FAQ ### undefined ### undefined ### undefined ## Related - https://unlockedcrm.ai/blog/white-label-vs-private-label-vs-reseller-crm - https://unlockedcrm.ai/blog/white-label-crm-for-imo-fmo-recruiting-edge - https://unlockedcrm.ai/blog/white-label-cost-vs-building-your-own-crm --- Source: [White-Label Insurance CRM — The Complete Guide for Agencies and IMOs](https://unlockedcrm.ai/blog/white-label-insurance-crm-complete-guide) — unLocked CRM, the AI CRM built for insurance agents.
