KEY POINTS:

• Customers of SWITCH can save money if they drive safely. This usage-based model assesses the quantity and quality of driving and determines premiums in accordance with those findings.
• Customers receive a driving grade based on a number of factors, including speeding, distracted driving, and stopping suddenly, among others.
• You may purchase SWITCH online. Customers can download the SWITCH app from the Google Play Store and the iOS App Store after making a purchase to view their policy.
• From the point of purchase through claim notification, claim settlement, customer support, etc., the entire product lifecycle is digitised, resulting in a seamless customer experience.
• After the initial premium is paid to start the insurance, consumers may additionally pay premiums in monthly instalments. The car will be covered against fire and theft around-the-clock, 365 days a year, even though the policy covers unintentional damage while in motion and turned on.
• As with a standard Edelweiss motor insurance policy, customers can choose from a variety of add-on covers, including depreciation protect, engine protect, NCB protect, roadside assistance, and more, according to the company.
