How do you get a discount on insurance for cars?

I don’t think I’ve tried to apply for any discounts. What sort of discounts are available for me and how do I apply for them?

Discounts open up a whole new world of possibility when it comes to finding savings on your car insurance! Often, you’ll need to submit documentation proving you meet the requirements to get a certain discount, such as a report card, certificate of completion, or receipt from a purchase.
Common discounts available with most providers include:
  • Multi-policy (bundling home and auto)
  • Multi-vehicle (adding more than one car to the policy)
  • E-billing or paid in full
  • Good student (students under 25 earning a B average)
  • Accident free (no at-fault accidents for 3-5 years)
  • New vehicle or safe vehicle (installing anti-theft devices)
Contact your provider directly to get the full list of discounts available to you, as they vary per state and zip code.
