In 1982 John M. Noel developed the Travel Guard product while he was working at Sentry Insurance.

In 1993, two years after selling it to GMF, its founder reacquires Travel Guard from the French firm.

In July 2009, the company moved to its new home in a business park located off I-39 in Stevens Point.

AIG subsidiary, National Union Fire Insurance Company, underwrites Travel Guard policies.
