Hey, It's not necessarily more a deterrent than giving cash back. 1. we are not yet legally allowed to give money back to our users (but we're working on it) 2. some behavioral economic theories actually suggest that cash is less an incentive than other more altruistic incentives. Once our give back to consumers will be active- I'll guess we'll be able to put our theories to the test- hope this answers your question

Hey, this is Maya from Lemonade, we believe people are inherently good and when faced with the option of embellishing their claim and pocketing more money or claiming what they deserve and make sure their cause receives the extra money left- most people (we hope) will choose the latter.
