Cuvva

name: Cuvva
description: Cuvva is a UK insurtech that pioneered flexible, short-term car and van insurance sold entirely through its mobile
  apps. Founded in 2015 as the first app to sell temporary car insurance in the UK, it offers policies from one hour up to
  28 days, learner-driver cover, drive-away cover for newly purchased vehicles, temporary van and motorhome insurance, and
  a rolling subscription product (formerly Flexi). Cuvva is FCA-authorised and has sold over 16 million policies to 1.7M+
  drivers. Its engineering is built on a fleet of small single-purpose service APIs (auth, vehicle, MOT, motor-coverage, billing,
  promo, profile, upload, terms, notification and more), publicly documented on GitHub and secured with an in-house OAuth
  2.0 implementation using JWT bearer tokens.
