By Miles introduced pay-by-mile car insurance policy in 2018. The company rolled out a relaxed cancellation fees offer at the beginning of last month for the policy. With lockdown in place due to Covid-19, this enabled drivers to try ‘drive less, pay less’ policies for three months.
The company saw the strongest sales of pay-by-mile policy last month, reported Insuarance Times.
By Miles co-founder and chief executive James Blackham said: “Securing £15m in funding at the moment hasn’t been easy, and we’re incredibly grateful to the investors that are joining us on the journey to build out the future of pay-by-mile.
“We’re proud to continue with our mission of making car ownership fairer and more accessible to everyone today, while making sure we’re ready for what’s coming tomorrow.”
