# Quote Web Service

The Quote Web Service processes JSON quote requests from Partners and returns a quote response.

## Technology overview

AWP is a digital merchandising optimizer. It exposes loosely coupled web services that use standard JSON messaging over HTTP or HTTPS. This lets AWP integrate with Partner platforms and run ongoing multivariate testing and optimization of offers.

## Environments

AWP provides a User Acceptance Testing (UAT) environment and a Production environment. Both behave the same. Only the access URL differs.

| Environment | Quote URL                                                                        |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| UAT         | `http://uatgateway.americas.allianz-assistance.com/CoreGatewayAPI/Optimizations` |
| Production  | `http://gateway.americas.allianz-assistance.com/CoreGatewayAPI/Optimizations`    |

> **Warning**
>
> Your Partner user ID and password are different in UAT and Production. Allianz issues credentials for each environment, so never reuse UAT credentials in Production.

## Quote process

#### Send a Quote Request

The Partner sends a JSON Quote Request message to AWP. It includes the booking (currency, booking path, language, number of travelers, total trip cost) and the itinerary (departure and return dates, origin airport, destination airport).

#### AWP builds an optimized offer

AWP builds one or more offers, depending on the Partner's implementation, optimized to increase take rate. It returns them in a JSON Quote Response that contains the product, pricing, and marketing content as HTML.

#### Display the offer

The Partner displays the offer in the context of its web page.

> **Tip**
>
> Send the customer's state, postal code, IP address, and origin airport with every quote. US products are regulated by state, so AWP needs them to return compliant offers. See [Residency of the insured](/integration-guide/data-standards#residency-of-the-insured).
