Abstract
System and methods for encouraging safe driving are provided. A mobile computing device may be configured to include a trip monitoring application. The trip monitoring application may automatically detect when a trip in a vehicle has begun. The trip monitoring application may collect trip information during the trip and derive additional trip information upon termination of the trip. A cash reward amount may be calculated based at least in part on the additional trip information derived from the trip information collected during the trip. The cash reward amount may be provided to an individual associated with the mobile computing device.
