Zego Sense. Taxi insurance for good drivers.

First, open the app store on your phone and search for ‘Zego Sense’. Once you’ve downloaded the app, open it up and enter your email address to request a login link. That’ll log you into the app, and we’ll automatically link it to your Zego policy.

So that Sense can work properly, you’ll need to turn on a few permissions. This guide shows you how.

The Sense app uses data from your smartphone’s inbuilt sensors to monitor how safely you drive. We track things like your acceleration, cornering and braking over a period of time to create a driver score for you.

The better you drive, the higher your score will be. And that means lower insurance costs for you.

Because we track your data over long periods, it won’t impact your score if you accidentally take a sharp corner or brake heavily every now and then.

Find out more about how we calculate your driver score.

Because the Sense app monitors how you drive, the best way to keep a good score is to practice safe, careful driving. Here are a few tips:

1. Accelerate safely
Go easy on the pedal and accelerate at a gentle pace. It’s safer, it uses less fuel and it’s more comfortable for you, your passengers and those around you.

2. Corner carefully
Ease off the accelerator or gently tap the brake to reduce your speed as you approach a bend. It’ll make it easier to control your vehicle and reduce the risk of skidding or a collision.

3. Brake gently
When braking in normal traffic, use soft pressure to control your speed. Harsh braking can increase the chance of skidding or losing control of your vehicle, especially in bad weather. So only use the brakes for a hard stop in an emergency.

Sense uses your smartphone’s background app refresh functionality. So you can rest assured we’ll never miss a trip and you’ll never need the app open when you’re working.

Zego Sense works by offering better drivers lower insurance premiums when they renew. Good drivers can get up to 36% off their price before a Sense discount is applied.

The Sense app uses location and motion data from your phone’s inbuilt sensors. It picks up on the frequency of factors like harsh braking, aggressive acceleration and sharp cornering, and uses this data to create your driver score on a rolling basis.

Not at all. Sense is an app that you install on your smartphone.

Simply sign up to a Sense policy, download the Sense app and start driving.

Our app works by sensing your driving behaviours over time. So over the full length of your policy, it builds a clear understanding of how safely you drive. It takes time to build this understanding, so we don’t punish you if you accidentally take a sharp corner or have to brake harshly on a rare occasion.

No. We know you need your phone for work, so we’ve designed the Zego Sense App to work in the background and use less of your phone’s battery power.

Zego sense is available for everyone to download. Using the app and demonstrating a good driving could lead to you paying less for your insurance.
