What is black box insurance?
Black box insurance - also called telematics - is a type of car insurance which sees a small device fitted out-of-sight in your car and it measures how well you drive in order to reward safe drivers with discounted insurance.
The smartphone-sized piece of technology records:
- Careful cornering
- Good braking
- What time you drive
- Journey lengths
This lets insurers price your cover accurately and fairly, based on how you drive rather than just your age and postcode.

Is black box insurance for me?
LittleBox is great for lots of people, and if you’re facing high insurance prices you could get a discount by having one of our clever little boxes active in your car.
The technology in our box looks at how you drive – if you drive safely, you could be rewarded with a lower price. But if you do lots of journeys throughout the day or you regularly drive at night, LittleBox may not work for you.
If you feel you're being punished for other people's bad driving, and particularly if you're a new driver or young driver then LittleBox could be for you.

Isn't it like having 'Big Brother' in my car?
No, we aren’t like ‘Big Brother’. While the unit does collect your location data, we only use it for what we need to; this helps us to create your personalised driving score.
And great news – if the LittleBox is active and your car’s stolen, we’ll be able to help track its location.
What kind of information does black box collect?
The technology and data from Telematics insurance is used to help drivers get a fair price for their car insurance - not to try and catch them out.
LittleBox collects information about how and when you drive, along with other risk factors to calculate your driving score.
We use that information to work out what kind of driver you are, and ultimately, how safe you are behind the wheel.
Don't worry, we only share the information with the data companies who provide the services, like the LittleBox provider - your information won't be sold or shared with anyone else.
If you’re a good driver, the information collected by the box can help you get a lower insurance price at renewal. On the other hand, consistently bad drivers may find their price increases and the very worst drivers risk their cover being cancelled.
See what kind of driver you are
You'll get regular updates on how good a driver you are and tips on how you can improve your driving score.
