How Ajusto works
After 6 months and at least 1,000 km of driving
Your score changes over time, so at each renewal we update your premium using your latest score based on your driving over the previous 6 months.
What influences your score
Your score is based on several factors related to your driving behaviours and habits. The safer you drive, the higher your score.
Your driving behaviours
Distractions
Keep your eyes on the road and don't use your phone while driving.
Braking
Keep a safe distance from the car in front of you to avoid hard braking.
Speed
Drive the speed limit to decrease your accident risk.
Acceleration
Accelerate gently to stay in control of your car.
Your driving habits
Distance
Shorter trips keep you more alert and reduce risk.
Time of day
Driving during the day and avoiding rush hour increases safety.
Routine trips
Taking the same routes all the time reduces the risk of surprises and accidents.
The higher your score, the more you save
Most Ajusto users score 61 or higher and save on their insurance.
Scores of 76 and higher lower your premium by 10% to 25%
Scores of 61 to 75 lower your premium by 1% to 9%
If you get a score of 60, no adjustment will be applied. Scores below 60 could increase your premium by up to 20%.
Did you know that nearly 90% of our clients signed up for Ajusto have reduced or maintained their car insurance premium?

- If your score is above 60, we'll remove your favourable adjustment from your premium.
- If your score is below 60, it will be used to calculate your premium once your removal from the program is processed and at each subsequent renewal.
