Astonishingly quick and easy experience and I love the fact that I can pause the insurance any time. I needed equipment insurance as well so it was killing two birds with one stone. I rarely do review... See more

Super great - would definitely recommend!

Fairly new to this and of course, I'm hoping no mistakes are made and therefore no claims have to be made, however, I have no worries when it comes to this now with my insurance through Dinghy. The process to getting this insurance was very straight forward, easy and is affordable. The policy itself seems comprehensive and covers everything I need it to.

Wow just Wow.

Saturday morning and it took me just 2 mins to sign up and get my freelance business insured. So easy and slick.
This is the perfect company for freelancers like myself.
As most freelancers know time is a precious commodity so joining Dinghy was a really easy and painless experience.
Not only that they are really lovely people as I have been chatting with the founding partner Ben on Facebook for the past hour.
Thanks guys I'm really glad to have found you.

Highly recommend…

The quote process was really quick and simple, the policy terms are great for freelancers who could be anywhere in the world.

Also I used to work with the founder approximately 9 years ago so already know his skills in the industry as well as the trust factor - definitely recommend!

Finally, it also worked out cheaper than my existing contents insurance, with the Professional Indemnity on top! Win win :)

Quick to set up & affordable

Easy set up and very support of Freelance Designers out there at an affordable cost.

It's also very flexible and allowing you to adjust your plan based on your current working situation. It's a must have for those looking for that extra security and reassurance.

Fresh and forward thinking insurance

Signing up is super simple and the dashboard interface offers great user experience. The flexibility to change status to on Holiday or looking for work etc is an awesome feature. Support is really good and any questions were answered promptly. I would highly recommend you get Dinghy if you're a freelancer or small business looking for flexible forward-thinking insurance.

Dinghy is flexible, just like the freelancers it works for

Getting insurance with Dinghy was easy. The website was easy to navigate, the terms easy to understand and the dashboard gives Dinghy an edge when it comes to insurance for freelancers which needs to be flexible, just like us!

Dinghy is the future of Insurance...

There - I said it. If all insurance providers offered the same ease of use and transparency, the world would indeed be a better place. For the time being though, Dinghy feels like an oasis of calm compared to everything else out there. From the super speedy sign up to tailoring my payment plan, the experience was super quick. I did have a couple of questions that were quickly and promptly answered by the Dinghy team, who couldn’t have been more helpful.

So, if you’re looking for flexible, easy to manage insurance that works around you (and not the other way around) then give Dinghy a try, you’ll be glad you did.

Like the Monzo of insurance

I just purchased a policy and it was so simple! They're like the Monzo of insurance. It's so nice to find an insurance company that understands the realities of freelancing, and the team were really helpful and responsive via their live chat.

Took me all of 2mins to buy the insurance, no long form filling. A bonus on top the fact that my profession couldn't be insured by traditional insurers and that they understand freelancing is punctuated with gaps of no work. Would recommend Dinghy to any freelancer in the Tech/Startup world.
