Pay As You Drive Motor Insurance App

The purpose of the Pay As You Drive project is to develop a mobile application for the Android & iOS platforms that will, first and foremost, track driving habits of a user whilst travelling on a journey. Driving habits are recorded and used for motor insurance purposes, whereby a user pays a monthly insurance price based solely on how much and how well/poorly they drive. The application allows the user to view their past journey, control their profile details and vehicles through the app, and finally create and monitor insurance claims within the application.

Pay As You Drive is designed with a Peer 2 Peer business approach, whereby users are nodes in a network. Each month the nodes are billed for their driving, and this money is gathered into one central money pool. In the event of an accident, fire ortheft to their motor vehicle an insurance claim can be made, and if approved, a transfer takes place from the money pool to the users wallet.

Get a feel for the app

This is an emulator to get a feel for the Pay As You Drive Application.

You won't be able to track your journeys, and the screen proportions are off when using Appetize.io.

Nonetheless it gives you a sense of what the app feels like to use.

You may need to wait in a queue, but no longer than a minute or so...
