The Pay-as-you-go fleet Insurance Specialists
Pay-As-You-Go Fleet Insurance
Pay by the mile, make your accountant smile!
A relatively new concept, pay-as-you go fleet insurance – or usage based fleet insurance – is increasingly popular with business owners and fleet managers.
Its attractions are obvious.
It’s flexible, is priced not by estimates but the miles actually driven and, with payments made monthly in arrears, can ease cashflow.*
What’s more we can arrange pay-as-you-go fleet insurance for vans, car, mopeds – including use for delivery or courier services – and private hire vehicles.
Free ‘fit and forget’ telematics**
The cover we arrange includes free telematics devices which you can easily install and register yourself. Simply fit and forget.
Already got telematics? No problem. Provide proof and we will arrange for the cost for the first 12 months of your pay-as-you-go insurance policy to be covered.
You’ll also be able to access a handy fleet portal.
You can use this to manage your policy and access a range of reports and insights so that you can easily monitor driver behaviour.
This will let you discreetly identify how well – or otherwise – your drivers are driving and how they might improve. Such insights can help you minimise claims – it’s worth noting that just 10% of drivers are responsible for 50% of fleet incidents.***
They can also help you encourage good driving habits to keep your drivers safe, increase fuel efficiency and reduce wear and tear on key parts such as brake pads and discs.
Free, self-install telematics devices.Interest-free, automated monthly billing – in arrears.Easy policy management through fleet portal.Mixed fleet up to 200 vehicles for delivery and courier pays-as-you-go insurance (subject to referral and acceptance).Available for van, car and moped courier and delivery fleets.*****Driver behaviour insights – increase safety, reduce costs.

- Better manage costs. Pay for what you use with costs aligning with demand
- Environmental, tax compliance and trip reporting
- Safety and security notifications
How does pays-as-you-go fleet insurance work?
It’s simple. To get you started, you’ll be provided with a free telematics device for every insured vehicle.**
Mount them in the cabin, connect to the battery and you’re good to go.
These devices will provide all the data necessary to administer your usage-based fleet insurance policy.
To guarantee connectivity and global coverage, you’ll receive a roaming SIM for every device.**
More accurate, more fair
Your premium will be calculated by adding a by-the-mile vehicle rate to a fixed fleet cost base.
That fixed base rate ensures all your vehicles are always covered, with the flexible premium meaning you’re paying for the miles actually driven, rather than an estimate.
Premiums are charged monthly in arrears, interest-free and there are no admin fees to worry about.
Actual also means accurate. Some 84% of courier fleets drive fewer miles than they estimate. Why pay for what you’re not doing?***
Better manage your costs
Your monthly costs will also mirror the peaks and troughs of demands on your business vehicles. When your miles are low (indicating your revenues are depressed), you’ll pay less.
You will also be able to agree a cap on your monthly payment – and never pay more.
Because you’ll be paying in arrears, you need to pay a fully refundable security deposit. You may be able to arrange a payment plan, depending upon the size of your deposit.****
You can also save up to 80% on any vehicles you temporarily take off the road.
Available around the clock, your fleet portal will let you easily see where you are with things and manage your policy. As well as mileage it will also deliver environmental, tax compliance and trip reports along wit safety and security notifications.
