Once you've bought temporary car insurance with us, you can extend your policy in the app - just tap the green "Extend" button, and then pay.
If you need to extend your policy while youâre on the road, be sure to pull over first.
Youâll need to be at least a quarter of the way through your current policy
The âextendâ button will appear once your policy is a quarter of the way through.
For example, youâll be able to extend a 1 hour policy once the first 15 minutes has passed.
How long you can extend for
Youâll normally be able to extend your policy for any policy length that was available to you when you first bought your insurance.
For some, thatâs any time between one hour and 28 days.
But if youâre a learner driver, or if you havenât held your licence for very long, you might not be able to get our longest policies. Weâve written more about policy durations on our website.
How we work out the price of your extension
When you extend your cover, the price is based on the same things as your original policy - such as:
Driving history
Your Vehicle
The time and location
Some of those details wonât have changed from when you first got your Cuvva policy. But if you extend at a different time, or in a different place, the price may vary.
If you cancel your extension before it starts, weâll give you a full refund
We can cancel a Cuvva policy at any time - that includes extensions.
But weâll only be able to refund you if you cancel before the extension starts.
We canât normally give refunds once a policy has started. But because an extension is technically (and legally) a separate policy that starts immediately after your first policy ends, we can issue a full refund if you change your mind before the extension starts.
Happy driving đÂ
