Intact Insurance’s my Drive and belairdirect’s automerit programs provide customers with personalized feedback and tips that could help them improve their safe driving habits. Consumers who opt for the programs can also earn up to 25% off their auto insurance premiums.
In a release, Intact said that it is offering an additional 10% discount on auto insurance for customers who sign up for either usage-based auto insurance program.
"We know the pandemic has changed life for many Canadians. More people are working from home and driving habits and patterns are changing," said Intact Financial Corporation president of Canadian operations Louis Gagnon.
Gagnon added that “now more than ever,” it is essential for insurers to provide customers with digital tools that reflect their personal driving habits, promote safe driving, and give them an opportunity to save more.
Intact also announced that it is continuing to develop other “innovative and responsive measures” to longer term trends.
Last month, Intact Financial announced that it was pulling out Intact Insurance and belairdirect from British Columbia’s optional auto insurance market. Although the insurer withdrew from writing new optional auto insurance business in the region, Intact indicated that it would continue to offer its other products in BC.
