First gadget insurance comparison site launched in the UK
Comparison Creator, a software development company specialising in product comparison, said on Aug. 14 that it launched a platform called Protect Your Gadget.
The service compares multiple brands and allows consumers to review policies based on the cover provided - including accidental damage, multi-gadget cover, mechanical breakdown and whether or not family cover is provided. Protect Your Gadget is the only gadget insurance comparison website in the UK, according to the statement.
CEO of Protect Your Gadget and Comparison Creator, Steve Jones, said: “We are thrilled to launch Protect Your Gadget. It’s our first direct proposition and we’re excited about the opportunities that this presents for our insurance partners as well as consumers looking to cover their prized tech possessions.”
A survey found that the worldwide mobile phone insurance market alone is worth in the region of £10 billion in 2015 and will reach £14 billion by the end of 2019, according to the statement.
“We want to be an innovator in the comparison market and bring to the market products that consumers want and need. We have big plans for the coming years,” Jones noted.
