Need more time behind the wheel? You can extend your temporary car insurance quickly in the app.
Just tap the Extend button on your active policy.
When you can extend
You’ll need to wait 5 minutes after your policy starts before extending
You can only extend while your policy is still active
If you’re driving, make sure you pull over safely before extending your cover.
How long you can extend for
You can usually extend by any duration that was available when you first bought your policy, up to the maximum (usually 28 days).
So if you bought a policy for 21 days, you'll probably be able to extend by another 7.
If you’re a learner driver:
The maximum total policy length is 3 hours
If you started with a 3-hour policy, you won’t be able to extend
If you started with 1 or 2 hours, you can extend up to the limit
How extension pricing works
The price of your extension is based on the same factors as your original policy, including:
Your age
Driving history
The vehicle
Time and location
If something changes, like your location, the price may change too.
Cancelling an extension
You can cancel an extension before it starts and get a full refund.
Once the extension has started, we usually can’t offer a refund.
If you have any questions, just search the help centre for a quick answer or reach out to our customer support team. Happy driving!
