813 Vodafone has joined forces with UK-based car insurance provider Admiral Insurance (Admiral) to become its first digital telematics partner. It will provide underlying telematics for the Admiral LittleBox offer which delivers driving data to Admiral that can be shared with drivers through an online dashboard. It will display driver scores as well as updates and rewards.

Admiral will also be provided with detailed information on crash situations to help digitise the overall claims process. It is designed with the intention of adopting an approach which will be increasingly data led and integrated with additional services.

Additionally, Vodafone will also offer a managed stolen vehicle recovery capability which aims to build on its existing network of secure operating centres across Europe.

Gunnar Peters, head of telematics, at Admiral said: “Admiral always wants to encourage safer driving and telematics gives us the ability to reward good drivers whilst helping all our customers to become better drivers.  We are excited by the prospect of having an innovative partnership with Vodafone and we are impressed by what they can offer our customers now and in the future.”
