PHYD offers an objective assessment of driving behavior through mobile telematics embedded in the Zuno app. Customers can monitor their driving scores after each trip, gaining valuable insights into their performance and progression towards safer driving habits. While the score is readily available post-trip, and customers also have visibility to the discount applicable for different ranges of scores, the exact discount percentage applicable to the total premium amount is also revealed during renewal, ensuring transparency and clarity for customers. Zuno is the first company to explore usage-based insurance in India and has always been developing innovative products, especially around usage-based insurance. This is the extension of its first UBI offering ‘Switch’. This is the first time any company has used ‘driving behavior’ to personalize car insurance premiums in the country.

By offering discounts of up to a significant percentage on insurance renewal premiums, the PHYD add-on not only encourages safe driving practices but actively incentivizes good driving behavior through the discounts offered during renewal.
