Honey Insurance, the first tech-driven home and contents insurance provider with smarter protection, has teamed up with telecommunications company Notion to provide customers with smart home sensors.

Notion's smart home sensors are multifunctional and can monitor for water leaks, the opening of doors and windows, and temperature changes – with an app to manage it all. The sensors can be installed in less than 15 minutes and provide an easy DIY approach to smart monitoring, with no professional installation required.

Aside from receiving a complimentary Smart Home Sensor Kit worth $250 to reduce loss and prevent minor issues from becoming a big problem, the partnership allows Honey Insurance customers to receive 8% off their premiums as soon as their sensors are activated.

“At Honey Insurance, we are utilising the best technology and services from around the world to provide Australians with better cover that is fast, simple to understand, intuitive to purchase, and designed for how people live today,” said Richard Joffe, the founder and CEO of Honey Insurance.

“Insurance shouldn't be ‘set and forget’. Thanks to our exclusive agreement with Notion, we are not only able to save our customers money but also help make their homes smarter.”

Notion, a Comcast Company, also helps reduce risk for homeowners by providing sensors that proactively monitor for issues like water leaks or temperature changes before they lead to significant damages and insurance costs.

Commenting on the partnership, Notion CEO and co-founder Brett Jurgens said: “Notion smart sensors are changing the way property owners and insurers monitor risk. In fact, 84% of Notion users didn't monitor water leaks prior to using Notion.

“We're excited for Honey Insurance to bring our DIY solution into Australian homes as we expand across the globe to help reduce the complexities and risks of property ownership.”
