YUBI NEW JERSEY FAQs
What is YUBI®?
YUBI® stands for Your Usage-Based Insurance. It’s a safe-driving program from Plymouth Rock that rewards you for good driving behavior. With the YUBI 2.0 app, you could earn potential discounts on your auto insurance while becoming a safer, more aware driver. Safer driving leads to safer roads. Everybody wins! How does the YUBI program work?
When activated, the YUBI 2.0 app uses the GPS system in your smartphone and assesses your driving habits, such as mobile use, speeding, smooth driving (braking and acceleration), total miles driven and time of day. And there’s no need to feel like you’re being followed! The YUBI 2.0 app only monitors your location while a trip is in progress and provides trip details for each driving trip you take. What’s in it for me?
YUBI could help you save money by rewarding your safe-driving behavior over time. Who doesn’t like getting rewarded for being a safe driver? You can get an initial discount of up to 10%, and with consistent good driving behavior, your discount may increase up to 29% at policy renewal. At renewal, each driver’s discount may increase or decrease based on their driving habits. A small percentage of drivers with poor driving behaviors, may get a surcharge. Drivers who do not complete the renewal requirements will lose any applicable participation discount and receive a 15% surcharge at renewal. To qualify for a discount at renewal, you need to capture at least 30 trips and 300 miles during the evaluation period. It’s easy to enroll in YUBI!
