Insurtech Pikl is to provide a white label comparison service to Confused.com for home, holiday home and landlord insurance that incorporates its host insurance, which is designed for clients offering short-term rentals.

Confused.com’s home insurance quote journey now includes an option for customers to declare if they plan to let out their property on a short-term basis. If so, they are diverted to a different journey, designed to meet their specialist needs.

Louise Birritteri CEO and founder of Pikl said: “We’re delighted that this partnership with Confused.com will now go a long way in making sure that people operating legitimately in the sharing economy have the right type of insurance cover and won’t be left at risk from theft, damage, fire or even public liability.”

Matthew Harwood, product manager at Confused.com, added: “Renting out homes or rooms during key events or peak times of the year is becoming increasingly popular… In working with Pikl, we are able to educate and help customers who may look at renting out their home short term in the future by signposting the need for specialist cover when they are quoting on our site.“
