Descriptiontext

Insurance Revolution is a UK specialist insurance broker operating under the legal entity Well Dunn Limited (FCA Ref 582576), headquartered in Manchester. The company focuses on commercial and non-standard insurance lines that are underserved by price-comparison aggregators and high-street brokers, including commercial vehicle insurance (van, HGV, fleet), courier and delivery cover, motor trade policies, plant and machinery insurance, business and landlord insurance, and convicted or high-risk driver cover. Distribution is through a human-first advised-sale model delivered by UK-based sales agents via telephone, online quote forms, a customer portal, and recently WhatsApp Business (integrated through CM.com). The company is FCA-authorised and operates across multiple trading brands including Insurance Revolution Broking Services, Well Dunn Insurance Services, 5 Star Insurance Services, and Revolution Premium Finance.

The product portfolio spans more than a dozen core insurance lines and several add-on modules such as Any Driver policies, Goods in Transit, Hire and Reward cover, and the Little Theo telematics programme with an accompanying smartphone app. Technology components include the Insurance Revolution App (Android and Apple), the Little Theo telematics device capturing driving behaviour and mileage, WhatsApp customer service integration via CM.com, premium finance integration via PremFina, and credit reference agency checks for affordability assessment. Underlying architecture is a broker platform layered with communication and telematics capabilities, rather than a pure software product.

Insurance Revolution earns revenue primarily through commissions from insurers (a percentage of annual premium), supplemented by premium finance commissions when customers pay via instalments, and policy administration fees for mid-term adjustments, cancellations, and related services. Pricing is not publicly disclosed due to risk-based variability; however, transparent fee schedules (e.g., £55 mid-term adjustment, £55 cancellation after cooling-off, £80 telematics device package) indicate a hybrid commission-plus-fee model. The company works with a panel of 59 insurance providers and underwriting agencies spanning major carriers (Aviva, AXA, Ageas, Allianz, QBE, Zurich, LV) and specialist underwriters (Markel, Amwins Global Risks, Jensten, Octane, Mitek), enabling placement across a wide risk spectrum.
