Car insurance companies do not advertise all their discounts in an easy-to-find place, so the list below details a few of the more common as well as some of the hidden credits available to lower your premiums when you buy insurance coverage online.
As a disclaimer on discounts, most discount credits are not given to your bottom line cost. Most only apply to specific coverage prices like medical payments or collision. Despite the fact that it seems like having all the discounts means you get insurance for free, companies wouldn’t make money that way.
Some of the larger companies that may include most of the discounts above may include but are not limited to:
When getting a coverage quote, ask every insurance company which discounts you may be entitled to. Some credits may not be offered in your area.
Consumers need to have an understanding of a few of the rating criteria that go into determining your premiums. When you understand what determines premiums, this enables you to make decisions that will entitle you to cheaper rates.
The factors shown below are just a few of the factors that factor into your prices.
When buying the best insurance coverage, there really is not a single plan that fits everyone. Every insured’s situation is different.
Here are some questions about coverages that may help you determine if you might need an agent’s assistance.
If you’re not sure about those questions, you may need to chat with an agent. To find an agent in your area, complete this form. It’s fast, free and may give you better protection.
Knowing the specifics of insurance can help you determine which coverages you need for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.
Medical expense coverage
Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for EMT expenses, pain medications and doctor visits. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Uninsured or underinsured coverage
This coverage gives you protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your 2007 Mercury Montego.
Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.
Collision protection
This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision insurance covers claims like hitting a parking meter, scraping a guard rail and crashing into a building. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Auto liability
This will cover damage that occurs to a person or their property that is your fault. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show liability limits of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.
Liability coverage pays for claims like attorney fees, medical services, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, bail bonds and funeral expenses. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as much as you can afford.
Comprehensive protection
Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like damage from a tornado or hurricane, damage from flooding and a broken windshield. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.
When you buy insurance coverage online, you should never skimp on critical coverages to save a buck or two. There are many occasions where someone sacrificed uninsured motorist or liability limits and found out when filing a claim they didn’t have enough coverage. The proper strategy is to purchase a proper amount of coverage for the lowest cost while still protecting your assets.

The most important thing to understand is the more quotes you get, the higher your chance of finding inexpensive insurance coverage.
