There are alternatives.. we are setting up an insurer with a new business model in the UK.

We earn a flat fee every time we settle a claim for members of our community - they provide the funds to cover for each other.

No conflict of interest, fair pricing, everything instant.

Interesting, but the variable premium scares me. Is there no limit on liability? What happens if lots of people claim in the same month?


If there are outliers and the premium would skyrocket we cap your premium at market rate through an agreement with a reinsurer. It's a standard financial tool insurers are using as well and costs us next to nothing.
