Mileage-Based Insurance Telematics Programs

Mileage-based programs are seeing a resurgence. New developments in mileage-based insurance telematics are giving insurers an additional edge.

The World Has Changed

The post-pandemic landscape brought about a rapid shift in behavioral changes, driven by the adoption of more flexible work-from-home and hybrid policies. This shift has resulted in a considerable decrease in miles driven – a trend that is here to stay. The net effect – an immediate surge in popularity of usage-based and mileage-based insurance programs as policyholders demand more control over their insurance and the premiums they pay.

However, the majority of mileage-based programs in market are limited and only track actual mileage traveled – but do not factor in safe driving behaviors including distracted driving. At the same time, you and other insurers also face increased cost scrutiny during this inflationary period and hardening markets – favoring solutions that enable scale and reduce cost.

In order to drive demand for insurance products that offer greater value, build trust with policyholders, and provide rich and engaging experiences, it is essential for you to offer more personalized insurance programs and services to your policyholders.

Mileage-based insurance programs, often referred to as Pay-As-You-Drive (PAYD), are regaining traction with insurers who are looking not only to compete, but thrive, in developing innovative insurance telematics offerings in a mature market. Telematics-based mileage programs offer auto insurers a number of benefits, including:

  • Quick to implement

  • Offer more transparency

  • Provide policyholders with personalized insurance option

  • Increase policyholder retention

  • Encourage safer driver through behavior-based coaching and rewards
