Tailored specifically to drivers in the UAE, Beema SmartDriver offers comprehensive insurance with the added benefit of rewards, such as cashback, based on users’ driving behavior. By doing so, Beema continues to be a pioneer in the Insurtech space by using digital technology to incentivize safer habits on the road, thereby minimizing the number of traffic accidents in the country.

Beema SmartDriver can be activated using Beema’s mobile app and by utilizing the latest technology to assess driving behavior through measured data points like speeding, sudden braking, and phone usage. SmartDriver provides users with a calculated Driving Score with each trip they make and, depending on the aggregate score at the end of their policy periods, they can earn rewards like cash back for responsible driving throughout the year. The product utilizes sophisticated software that doesn’t require a physical tracking device or a black box, and has a gamification element that makes it entertaining for the user to interact with.

Beema SmartDriver was uniquely designed with the customer in mind, and doesn’t record or capture any personal information beyond the data needed to calculate the Driving Score. And once calculated, any and all information used, particularly regarding location, is immediately discarded. With user data protection and privacy at its core, SmartDriver abides by strict GDPR regulations and maintains the highest levels of cyber-security.
