Frequently asked questions
Which jobs can get a discount?
Each insurance company sets its own discounts. YouSet checks which discounts you’re eligible for based on your job and industry.
I’m self-employed. Does that change anything?
You can get home and car insurance with YouSet like anyone else. Enter your occupation and industry when you get your quote.
Does using my car for work affect my car insurance?
It can. Driving to and from work is normal personal use. But if you use your car mainly for business, it may need commercial insurance, which YouSet doesn’t offer right now. If you sometimes use your car for deliveries, ride-sharing, or car-sharing, YouSet can insure you. Get a quote and say how you use your car for work when the question comes up.
