Our history

Originally branded as Dare Direct in 2007, the company rebranded as Protectivity in 2012. Since then, the Protectivity brand has been committed to providing niche insurance solutions for small businesses, event organisers, and landlords. Initially focusing on sports coaches and personal trainers, the brand has developed a strong customer following in sports, leisure and wellbeing, artisan manufacturing, event organisation, and the trades industry.

Our aim for Protectivity, as a trading name of Starpeak Insurance Solutions, is to leverage our tech capabilities to make the purchase of insurance easy and cost-effective.
