BonusDrive — The smart way to insure your car for less
Drive smart, save more! With BonusDrive, you can positively influence your driving behaviour and get a discount of up to 20% on your next premium by driving safely.
What is BonusDrive?
BonusDrive is our reward system for forward-thinking drivers. With our app, you can improve your driving style. In contrast to the mileage-based billing model FlexDrive, with BonusDrive you pay an annual premium, which is influenced by your driving behaviour. Achieve a high score through regular and safe driving and get an attractive discount of up to 20% on your next annual premium!
Why BonusDrive?
Your advantage with BonusDrive: with BonusDrive you stay mobile and independent – no matter how many kilometres you drive per year. Your premium remains fixed and works like a flat rate. The best part is: with safe driving and a high score, you can even reduce your premium by up to 20% the following year!
How does the billing work?
With BonusDrive, there are no surprises: when you take out your policy, you decide whether you want to pay your premium annually or semi-annually. And the best part: depending on your score, you can secure a discount on the total annual premium for the next year!
