In 2026, Pillow achieved success in motor insurance rankings not once, but twice. In the Financial Product of the Year competition run by the expert website Finparáda, it received awards in two insurance categories. Pillow vehicle insurance took 1st place in the Public Choice Award and 2nd place in the Motor Insurance – Financial Product of the Year category.
The first award, the Public Choice Award, has special significance for insurers because it reflects the direct opinion of clients. Based on voting by website visitors, Pillow became the most popular brand among car and motorcycle owners and operators.
“The result confirms strong customer trust as well as the growing popularity of the simple and fair approach on which Pillow has long been built,” says Martin Podávka, co-founder and product expert at Pillow.
The positive rating from the public also corresponds with the company’s dynamic business growth. Pillow is the fastest-growing insurance company in the Czech Republic over the past six years and currently serves more than 300,000 clients. According to company representatives, this growth shows that a modern, transparent and practical product offering for drivers is receiving a strong response from Czech customers.
First place in the Public Choice Award is therefore not only a recognition of popularity, but above all proof that the insurer’s philosophy of fairness and clarity resonates with drivers across the Czech Republic.
Objective assessment highlighted product quality
Pillow received its second award in the Motor Insurance – Financial Product of the Year category, where it took 2nd place. This is the second time it has received the silver award for vehicle insurance.
“Financial Product of the Year is the only Czech competition that evaluates products using an objective parametric model and does not rely on the subjective opinions of judges. That is exactly why this ranking is so important and valuable to us,” explains Martin Podávka.
Among the strongest aspects of Pillow recognised by experts were its clear and easy-to-understand insurance terms, fair mileage-based discount and the option to arrange or modify insurance conveniently and fully online. This combination of simplicity, transparency and convenient online management gives clients a practical advantage in everyday life.
“We are pleased that our insurance is appreciated not only by experts, but above all by clients themselves. First place in the Public Choice Award is a strong confirmation of trust, and we value it greatly. Second place in the expert ranking also shows that we are on the right path in terms of product quality. We want to continue offering insurance that is fair, clear and easy to manage online,” says Martin Podávka.
Pillow as a modern player in the market
This double success in the Finparáda competition confirms that Pillow is one of the most distinctive players on the Czech insurance market. The company has long focused on modern digital services, fast and simple communication, and products that reflect clients’ real needs. The 2026 awards therefore not only reflect current success, but also confirm the insurer’s long-term strategy: to provide high-quality, transparent and client-friendly insurance that finds its place in the life of every driver.
