Usage-based Insurance Market Size
The global usage-based insurance (UBI) market size was valued at USD 62.6 billion in 2025. The market is expected to grow from USD 77.6 billion in 2026 to USD 567.6 billion in 2035, at a CAGR of 24.8%, according to latest report published by Global Market Insights Inc.
The usage-based insurance (UBI) market is projected to witness strong growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing penetration of connected vehicles, rising demand for personalized insurance pricing, and the growing emphasis on data-driven risk assessment models. As insurers seek to improve underwriting accuracy, reduce loss ratios, and enhance customer satisfaction, UBI solutions are becoming essential to enable fair, transparent, and behavior-based premium structures aligned with individual driving patterns.
Technological advancements such as telematics devices, smartphone-based tracking, embedded vehicle sensors, AI and ML powered driving behavior analytics, GPS-based mileage monitoring, and real-time data processing platforms are transforming traditional auto insurance models. These innovations enable continuous monitoring of driving parameters such as speed, braking, acceleration, mileage, and time of use, while providing insurers with end-to-end visibility across policy lifecycle stages from enrollment and risk scoring to dynamic pricing, claims management, and renewal optimization.
Market growth is further supported by the expansion of connected and electric vehicles, increasing adoption of pay-as-you-drive (PAYD) and pay-how-you-drive (PHYD) models, rising regulatory acceptance of telematics-based pricing, and growing consumer awareness of cost-saving and usage-linked insurance products. Core UBI functions such as real-time driving data collection, behavioral risk scoring, dynamic premium calculation, driver feedback and coaching, fraud detection, and claims optimization have become critical to insurer competitiveness and profitability. Associated services including telematics device deployment, platform integration, data analytics, consulting, customer support, and compliance management ensure seamless implementation and scalability across diverse insurance portfolios.
In 2024, leading UBI ecosystem participants such as Progressive, Allstate, AXA, Liberty Mutual, UNIPOLSAI Assicurazioni, Metromile, and Octo expanded their usage-based insurance capabilities. These players invested significantly in AI-driven telematics analytics, cloud-based insurance platforms, mobile-enabled customer engagement tools, and deeper integration with policy administration, claims, and customer relationship management systems to improve risk selection, enhance customer retention, and optimize underwriting performance.
The usage-based insurance ecosystem continues to evolve as advanced analytics, real-time telematics, automation, and personalized insurance models reshape the global auto insurance landscape. Insurers and technology providers are increasingly prioritizing integrated, data-driven UBI platforms that deliver holistic insights into driving behavior, enable dynamic pricing, reduce manual intervention, and support long-term profitability. These advancements are redefining the UBI market, enabling more transparent, customer-centric, and risk-optimized insurance solutions across global markets.

These initiatives improved underwriting accuracy, reduced loss ratios, enhanced customer transparency, and increased operational efficiency across personal and commercial auto insurance portfolios.
Regional customization of UBI solutions is emerging as a key market trend. Leading insurers are developing localized telematics configurations, region-specific pricing models, regulatory compliance frameworks, and data privacy modules across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. These solutions address country-specific insurance regulations, driving behaviors, vehicle usage patterns, and consumer expectations, tailored for diverse segments such as personal auto insurance, fleet insurance, mobility-as-a-service providers, and electric vehicle users.
The rise of specialized insurtech and telematics startups offering AI-powered driving analytics, smartphone-based tracking, predictive risk scoring, and cloud-based UBI platforms is reshaping the competitive landscape. Companies focusing on PAYD and PHYD models, real-time driver feedback, fraud detection, and automated claims processing are enabling scalable and cost-effective deployment of UBI programs. These innovations empower both established insurers and emerging players to accelerate digital transformation, improve customer engagement, and expand UBI adoption across global markets.
The development of standardized, modular, and interoperable UBI platforms is transforming the market. Leading players such as AXA, Progressive, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, UNIPOLSAI, and Octo Group are deploying unified telematics and insurance architectures that integrate seamlessly with policy administration, underwriting, claims, customer relationship management, and automotive data ecosystems. These platforms support customizable pricing models, real-time risk monitoring, enterprise-scale deployment, and compliance with global data protection regulations, enabling insurers to deliver transparent, flexible, and customer-centric usage-based insurance solutions across the full policy lifecycle.
