A first on the market: ING Belgium innovates with ‘ING Scan & Drive’

AI-driven calculation tool estimates car loan and insurance costs on the basis of a single photo

Brussels – Hybrid, electric or a combustion engine? Looking for a new or used car can be quite a task. However, getting an estimate for a car loan and insurance is not. With ‘ING Scan & Drive’, ING Belgium is launching an intuitive tool which calculates the price almost immediately after the customer has uploaded a single photo of a car. It estimates both the insurance premium and the car loan. A first on the Belgian market.

Sali Salieski, Head of Retail & Private Banking at ING Belgium: “We are very proud to have developed ING Scan & Drive, together with our insurance partner NN. This is an innovation, first of its kind on the market, and this is once again an example of delivering a simple, modern technology enabled unique customer experience. In addition, we’re leveraging to our strengths providing a bank-insurance product meeting the customer needs in one place.”
