First, we use the information you provide to create a rate report especially for you. The rate report reveals how your premium compares to average rates from major insurers in your area for people with similar insurance needs. Average rates are based on factors like location, and may differ from final quotes.
Then, we do the work to get quotes for lower premiums from national and regional insurance carriers. We’re constantly on the lookout for new deals for you, and when we uncover potential savings, we let you know. You’ll be able to compare quotes online before finalizing them with our partner, Covered. Your final price may differ from your initial quote based upon coverage selected and other factors that apply to your specific situation.

After joining NerdWallet+, log in to your NerdWallet account and link your current auto or property insurance policy. Our insurance assistant takes over from there – continually shopping around for you and gathering quotes from national and regional carriers.
The amount of time needed to gather quotes can vary due to the factors insurers consider when setting their rates. We could have quotes ready for you in days or weeks, depending on your current rates and market prices. Watch your insurance dashboard for status updates.
We’ll alert you when we find quotes lower than what you’re paying now. You’ll be able to follow a link to see your quotes.
We’ll also let you know if we think there’s a good chance we can find you savings – but we need a few more details to unlock additional quotes.2 You’ll be able to follow a link to see available quotes and connect with an advisor so we can get more quotes for you.
Keep in mind that in both cases your final price may differ from the initial quote.
Insurance carriers set rates based on a variety of factors, and each insurer treats each factor differently. That’s why quotes can vary across insurers. Learn about:
• What affects your car insurance rates
• What goes into a homeowners insurance quote
• What goes into a renters’ insurance quote
