It gives us great pleasure to announce that we were awarded the title of ‘Innovation of the Year’ at the Insurance Choice Awards last week.

It goes without saying that we’re humbled and amazed to see our name featured alongside many giants of the insurance space that also won awards, particularly as we haven’t even launched yet.

The best part of all though, is that we won thanks to votes from the general public. A huge thank you to anyone from our beta trial and our waiting list that voted for us. We quite literally couldn’t have done it without you.

Over the past year, we’ve been working hard to build a whole new kind of car insurance product that makes owning and maintaining a car fairer, easier and more affordable for UK motorists. This award demonstrates more loudly than ever that our product is something drivers want, and that it’s a solution that the insurance market in this country desperately needs.

We’re looking forward to being the insurer to bring pay-by-mile car insurance to the UK, and we’re thrilled to win our first award.

Is it too early to start shopping for a trophy cabinet?
