Our verdict
Lookinsure suits expats in the UAE who would rather set car, health and pet quotes side by side than approach insurers separately. It is a comparison site rather than an insurer, and car premiums start from AED 600 on monthly payments, with health cover reaching AED 5,000,000.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Monthly payments are available on car cover, and 88.9% of the brands on the site offer them as well.
- Health cover carries a limit of AED 5,000,000 on the plans the site puts side by side.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, so help is not tied to a single channel.
- The site sits behind a Central Bank of the UAE registration, 19, and a Government of Dubai registration, 2314479.
Cons
- As a comparison site, Lookinsure lays quotes side by side, and the cover itself is written by the insurer you pick.
- Excess on car cover runs AED 500 to AED 2,500, which is the part of a settled claim you fund yourself.
- Claims are handled through insurer claims portal, insurer app and email, which puts the insurer's app and email in the middle of the process.
Who it suits
- The audience is expats, so people relocating to the AE are the group it is built around.
- Drivers and pet owners who want auto, health and pet handled through the same comparison desk.
- Anyone who prefers instalments, since monthly payments are available and monthly is the model the site uses.
Who should look elsewhere
- bunq, if you want a bank account rather than insurance, since its premium starts from €0.
- Good Sam Insurance Agency, if you need life, home, renters, travel and motorcycle cover, since it lists auto, home and renters against the narrower set here.
- Euroasia Insurance, if you would rather deal with a single insurer than a comparison desk, with premium from UZS 60,000.

Frequently asked questions
Is Lookinsure an insurance company?+
Lookinsure is a comparison site run as Lookinsure LLC-FZ and founded in 2023, based in the AE. It sets quotes from several insurers next to each other rather than underwriting the risk, so the policy contract sits with the insurer you pick.
What does car insurance cost through Lookinsure?+
Car premiums start from AED 600 on the auto cover the site compares. Monthly payments are available, so the premium can be spread rather than paid as a lump sum. The excess sits outside that price and runs AED 500 to AED 2,500 on car policies.
How much health cover is included?+
Health cover on the site carries a limit of AED 5,000,000, the top amount shown for that line. Health is one of the auto, health and pet you can price, and the monthly model means the cost can be handled across the year instead of upfront.
How do I make a claim?+
Claims run through insurer claims portal, insurer app and email, so you deal with the insurer rather than with the comparison site. That is the practical difference between a comparison site and an insurer: the cover sits with the company that issued the policy, and the claim follows the same route.
Who regulates Lookinsure?+
Lookinsure holds a Central Bank of the UAE registration, 19, and a Government of Dubai registration, 2314479. Those registrations sit with the comparison site in the AE, while the insurers behind the quotes hold their own permissions.
How do I get help from the team?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone, so you can pick the channel that suits the question. The same team looks after auto, health and pet, which means one contact can answer on a car policy, a health plan or a pet policy rather than a single line.
Who is Lookinsure built for?+
The audience is expats in the AE, so expats settling there are the natural customer. Cover spans auto, health and pet, enough for a driver, a pet owner or someone arranging health cover, and monthly payments help spread the cost of each.
