Germany's biggest insurance company Allianz has unveiled an exceptionally innovative new driver reward app, dubbed BonusDrive, that allows you to win money on your car insurance if it records you driving responsibly and safely.
This driver reward app is capable of monitoring driving behavior by detecting acceleration and braking patterns as well as drivers' ability to turn corners, in addition to their general speed. Each trip is monitored, and drivers are given feedback. After a year's worth of insurance, the driver is given an overall rating by the app. 'Gold' level drivers can enjoy 30 per cent back on their insurance payment, silver drivers can get 20 per cent back and bronze drivers get 10 per cent.
Ultimately, this driver reward app is a great way to bring car insurance in the modern age by using technology to assess drivers and reward them accordingly.
