There are few things more frustrating than feeling like you’re paying too much for
car insurance
. If you’re looking to save money on your car insurance, try some of the following things:
  • Shop around for a better rate with
    Jerry
    . This broker app can find you competitive quotes in under a minute. If there’s a better rate out there, Jerry will also help you make the switch and help cancel your old policy.
  • Bundle multiple policies. You can usually save money by purchasing multiple policies (like home and auto) from the same insurance carrier. If your family has more than one car, you can usually save money by including both vehicles on the same auto insurance policy.
  • Ask about insurance discounts. Many insurance carriers offer discounts for:
  • Veterans
  • Good students
  • Members of certain professional or social organizations
  • Drivers who complete a defensive driving class
  • Install upgraded safety features. Insurance companies like to reward drivers who are less likely to get into an accident. If your car doesn’t have great safety ratings, adding upgraded safety features can help you secure better rates.
