Bonus-malus rules
OUTsurance does not operate a traditional No Claims Discount (NCD) scale. Instead, it states: "At OUTsurance, we don't believe a No Claims Discount scale is necessary to give a competitively priced insurance premium," and instead prices premiums individually from the outset, giving customers switching from other insurers full credit for their claims-free years. Customers continue to build claims-free years while insured with OUTsurance and receive a full No Claims Bonus Certificate detailing claims-free years (with OUTsurance and prior insurers) if they leave, which can be used to obtain an NCD with a future insurer. Separately, OUTsurance offers the 'OUTbonus' loyalty reward: after three consecutive claim-free years, policyholders receive 10% of their paid insurance premiums (excluding taxes and levies) back in cash, with a new OUTbonus cycle starting immediately after payout.
Territorial scope
Cover applies in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Great Britain, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands; liability cover is extended to the rest of Europe for up to 60 days, and under the optional Comprehensive Cover Abroad benefit for up to 90 days
