Why should you get an insurance quote?

Getting an insurance quote is the first step in getting a new insurance policy, changing your current insurance provider, or simply researching the insurance market. There are many positive aspects of getting an insurance quote, aside from actually knowing how much you could pay for your car, home, life or any other insurance policy.

  • Easy: Nowadays it is very easy to get an insurance quote. In the past you had to visit or call your insurance broker or agent. Today, getting an insurance quote is just a few clicks away.
  • Quick: It does not take long to get an insurance quote – somewhere between three and 15 minutes. If you simply request somebody to contact you to provide an insurance quote, it will take you no more than 1-2 minutes to complete the contact form.
  • Saving money: The truth is, insurance is not cheap. Taking a few minutes to compare insurance rates and get an insurance quote can result in savings of hundreds of dollars each year.
  • Comparing across multiple providers: When you get an insurance quote (on our platform) we help you compare rates across multiple insurance providers, often more than 15-20 insurance companies, for the majority of insurance types.

What types of insurance quotes are available?

There are typically three ways to get an insurance quote on our platform:

  • Instant insurance quotes: This type of insurance quote means that you provide all the data required to calculate your insurance rate, such as coverage data for life insurance, vehicle data for auto insurance, and house data for home insurance. An insurance quoting engine calculates an insurance rate tailored to your situation and provides you with an insurance quote. In some cases, you can even purchase an insurance policy online.
  • Non-instant insurance quotes: This quoting approach requires you to spend less time completing online insurance forms. You simply complete a short contact form and an experienced insurance broker, who is licensed in your province, contacts you to collect all the information required for a personalized quote, and he/she will share the calculated rate with you.
  • Via phone: Some people prefer calling and asking for the quote themselves – for such customers we have a dedicated phone number for some insurance types, allowing you to call an insurance broker who will navigate you through all the questions and offer you an insurance quote.

What impacts your insurance quote?

There are many aspects that impact your insurance quote. Each insurance type comes with its own set of data that must be collected to provide you with an accurate insurance quote.

For example, a life insurance quote would require information about your age, smoking habits, and type of coverage. A home insurance quote would capture data about your home (location, building, materials, etc.) along with the type and size of coverage required (content coverage, earthquake coverage, sewer backup protection, etc.). A car insurance quote would be focused on your driving history, your vehicle, and other relevant aspects.

This data is required to calculate your rate correctly, since insurance is based on statistics and history of insurance claims.

Important things to know when getting a quote

There are some things that you need to know when getting an insurance quote:

  • Correct information: You must provide correct information when getting a quote. If you provide incorrect data, it will lead to incorrect rates and, what is worse, if you go ahead and decide to purchase an insurance policy based on incorrect data, your claim might be not paid.
  • Correct contact data: If you have not provided contact data, especially in the case of non-instant insurance quotes, an insurance broker cannot contact you.
  • A quote is only an estimation: An insurance quote normally shows you the approximate rate you would pay. It can change based on additional data you will provide or on specifics of a particular insurer’s underwriting process.
