Insurance can be made to look inexpensive.
But stripped-back pricing often means stripped-back protection. At Rivr, we compete on depth of cover, clarity of terms and decisive action when you need us.
01
Clear pricing with no hidden economics
With Rivr, your premium reflects the level of protection you’re buying. We do not charge administration fees. We do not apply mid-term adjustment charges. We do not hide commission within the price. If your premium changes at renewal, we explain why.
02
Clear and consistent renewals
At Rivr, we believe renewal should be straightforward. If your premium changes, we’ll be clear about what has changed and why, with no hidden fees or unnecessary surprises.
Our aim is to keep pricing fair, transparent and consistent from the moment you first take out cover through to every renewal that follows.
03
Decisive, specialist claims handling
When something goes wrong, our specialist claims team is there to help, with a dedicated handler throughout the process. We know that disruption to your home and life is personal, and we handle every claim with that in mind.

You can contact us in the way that suits you best:
Email: hello@rivrcover.com
Chat: Send us a message through our online chat
Call: Book a call with a member of our team
We’re always happy to help.
How long does it take to get a quote?
You can usually get a quote in around 5 minutes using our online form. For most clients, you can get a quote, review your cover, and pay online, all within minutes.
In some cases, we may provide an indicative quote, which simply means your application needs a little more attention from our team.
We aim to be in touch within one working day, and most clients are fully insured within 3 days if we have some follow-up questions (slightly longer if submitted over a weekend or bank holiday).
Can I buy my cover over the phone?
Our online quotation process is super intuitive and fast, but if you prefer you can book a call to discuss your needs, and we can get a quote for you. You can book a call with a member of our team at a time that suits you.
Do you charge any additional fees?
In short, no. We don’t charge any admin, cancellation, or mid-term adjustment fees.
Unlike many other brokers, we believe in transparent pricing. What you see is what you pay.
How can I pay my premium?
You can choose to pay your premium annually or monthly.
Annual payments: Pay securely online using any major debit or credit card.
Monthly payments: Spread the cost of your premium through our premium finance partner, Bexhill.
Currently, monthly payments need to be set up over the phone, as we’re required to read a short regulatory script. We’re working to make this fully online soon.
Paying by premium finance can be more expensive than paying annually.
How long is a quote valid for?
A quote is valid for 30 days from the date it is issued.
