What's covered with a Veygo daily car insurance policy?
We offer two types of vehicle cover:
-
Cover for a car owner on their own vehicle.
-
Cover for you to share the car of a family member or friend.
A one-day car insurance policy is for 24 hours. However, you are able to cover your vehicle for up to 60 days if needed.
Our cover is fully comprehensive. This is the maximum level you can get and will give you the peace of mind that you’re covered for damage to your car and to the cars of other people involved in an incident, as well as any injuries to the people involved.
Am I eligible to insure my car for a day?
To apply for short-term car insurance, both you and your car need to check a few boxes.
As a driver:
You must be aged between 17 and 75, and have a full, valid UK driving licence.
If you’re aged between 17 and 21, and it’s for your own car, you need to have clocked up at least 6 months on your licence.
You should have no more than 9 penalty points, and have no disqualifications on your licence in the last 18 months.
If you have had any fault claims or motoring convictions, this may affect your ability to get temporary cover.
You need to get the car owner’s permission, and agree to take responsibility for getting the right cover.
As for the car:
It needs to be less than 30 years old.
The car should be registered in the UK.
You can get cover for a lease car, but not for a hire or rental vehicle.
