Tempcover launches new app that provides fully-comprehensive short-term vehicle insurance in two steps
Fleet UK, 14 May 2020: Tempcover has launched a brand-new app that brings fully-comprehensive short-term vehicle insurance straight to users’ fingertips, through a quick and simple user experience that involves a two-step policy confirmation process that enables customers to be on cover and driving within 90 seconds.
As a pioneer of the UK’s InsurTech industry, Tempcover has since 2006 been specialising in short-term vehicle insurance policies that last anywhere between 1-hour and 28-days – offering truly flexible short-term cover for the time drivers actually need, with no long-term commitment or auto-renewals.
In the next evolution of its digital journey, Tempcover CTO Marc Pell says that the company has streamlined the user experience through the development of the app. “The new and entirely overhauled user experience was co-created with customers – with multiple-stage research and testing resulting in a fit-for-purpose user experience based on customer demands and expectations.”
Pell adds that Tempcover has also worked closely with its underwriting partners to simplify the question set for customers. “It is written in simple straightforward English. This means no long-winded T&Cs – we bring to customers’ attention the most important things and help them engage with it. They know what they are buying, what’s covered and what’s not.”
Tempcover’s existing online experience makes policy documentation available to the user within 90 seconds, and the app provides the added benefit of giving users the opportunity to create a unique user profile where all policy documentation can be viewed and managed from one central location. Security is also guaranteed as the user has the option to set up their own six-digit pin or use their device’s built-in biometric authentication for login.
The Tempcover app also offers users exclusive access to the Covered Club loyalty scheme, where customers are rewarded with the best discounts. This makes the app ideal for motorists that require quick and flexible vehicle insurance without the hassle and expense of adjusting an existing annual policy.
“Whether you need to borrow a car, test drive a new vehicle before buying or even drive away with a new set of wheels straight from the forecourt without having to arrange annual cover, Tempcover’s short-term car insurance policies offer comprehensive cover as standard. An added benefit is there’s no risk to any existing No Claims Discount, as it’s a separate and standalone policy,” says Pell.
Tempcover has sold more than three-million policies to date and has an average Trustpilot rating of 4.6/5 based on over 16,000 reviews. The new Tempcover app is available for download on Google Play and the iOS App Store. All features are immediately accessible following a one-time set-up to capture all user details.
