Mercury Insurance launches MercuryGO for New Jersey drivers

Mercury Insurance has made its usage-based insurance app, MercuryGO, available to drivers in New Jersey.

Mercury auto insurance policyholders who enroll to use the app immediately receive a 5% participation discount and teen drivers will receive up to a 10% discount. Then, when MercuryGO customers renew their policies, they could receive a discount of up to 40% in addition to their participation discount, depending upon their driving score.

The program is powered by Cambridge Mobile Telematics.

“The benefits of MercuryGO is twofold: The app will help drivers be safer, which contributes to the ultimate goal of reducing fatalities and serious injuries. It will also help drivers save a lot of money on their premiums. All of this practicality will be at your fingertips in our easy-to-use app.” – Mercury Insurance director of product management Mike Dawdy.

“Mercury Insurance is utilizing the DriveWell platform to help drivers reduce distracted driving, speeding, and hard braking by keeping them engaged and providing timely feedback. MercuryGO will help make New Jersey roads safer and has the potential to reduce the number of car collisions, injuries and fatalities.” – Ryan McMahon, CMT’s VP of insurance and government affairs.
