This is my first time purchasing my own car and I want to make every step of the process as easy as possible. I know I need to get car insurance, but is there a way I can take out a policy online?

Taking out a
car insurance
policy online can be a little overwhelming without some guidance. Luckily, you can follow these tips to make your car insurance process stress-free.- Consider buying insurance directly from an insurance company or through a third party.
- Take a look at your state minimums to help you determine theminimum amount of coverageyou are required to have. This is a good starting point since you’ve never shopped for insurance before.
- Consider thetypes of coverageyou may need beyond your state minimums. This will vary depending on the needs of your vehicle and your needs as a driver.
- Compare quotes from at least three different car insurance companies to see a wide range of rates. You can do this online with nearly any insurance company you choose.
- Pick and pay for your policy when you’re satisfied with your results. You should be able to pay for your new policy directly from your quote.
