Need a new key

My son broke his key for his 2016 VW Polo (see photo)

I thought about trying a repair with sugru but don't think it'll be strong enough.

I think it's best to get a replacement key. Rather than pay a small fortune from the dealership I thought about trying someone online. Has anyone had any experience of this?

Just wondering...............how will an online place make a key for a car they do not have?

Apparently they can cut the key from a photograph.

Looks like a really poor design, barely any shank on the key to secure it.
