More Than launches telematics app
More Than has launched a telematics app giving drivers up to 20% off their car insurance after it has analysed their driving technique for 200 miles.
The app, called More Than Drive, was designed in partnership with telematics provider Wunelli.
Drivers receive a discount once the app has collected data based on acceleration, braking and speed. Feedback is provided after each journey on how to become a “safer” driver, according to a statement from More Than.
Matt Pernet, More Than motor director, said: “Drivers want to be rewarded for being safe and are also looking for ways to cut the cost of driving. The launch of More Than Drive enables us to do both. As experienced drivers are often put off by the idea of having a black box in their car we’ve created a simple phone app instead. Although aimed at experienced drivers, anyone is welcome to use More Thank Drive as the ultimate objective is to encourage people to be safer when driving and reward them for this.”
In addition to More Than Drive, RSA will continue to work with Ingenie, providing insurance for young drivers through its black box technology.
The app is available for iPhone and Android.
