“Not all insurance companies provide online car insurance quotes. And when they do, they are generally just estimates. However, drivers can buy car insurance online through some insurance comparison websites.”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
July 09, 2020

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents how drivers can obtain the best car insurance policy online.

Nowadays, more and more people have access to the internet. The digital revolution has opened up an entirely new way of doing business. Drivers are no longer required to work with local car insurance companies. They can shop online at their own convenience. Besides the incredible convenience and choice offered by internet-connected devices, algorithms are also able to process a whole slew of data points at once in order to pinpoint the best car insurance options faster and more accurately than ever before.

By using brokerage websites for comparison shopping, drivers can compare quotes instantly, view quote packages ranked from cheapest to most expensive, buy car insurance policy online or over the phone, make apples-to-apples comparisons, obtain real quotes from reputable provides, avoid scams or sign-up for text alerts.

To get an insurance policy online, drivers need to first enter their ZIP code and do the following:

• Enter info about the vehicle. All comparison sites will ask the drivers about the vehicle make and model, or about features like a GPS system or safety equipment that can affect the price of insurance. Luxury vehicles and cars with expensive safety features or high-end audio cost more to repair and will increase the price of insurance. The likelihood of a vehicle to be stolen will also affect the price of insurance.
• Enter info about how the car is being used. Drivers who use their cars to commute to work will pay more than those drivers who use their cars only on vacation or for pleasure driving. Also, how many miles are driven each year is an important factor that needs to be mentioned. Furthermore, policyholders will be asked if they own the car, they are making payments, or they lease it.
• Enter info about the driver. In this section, drivers are required to fill in personal information such as name, age, location, gender, marital status, credit score, and education level. With these data, insurance providers can use statistics to predict how likely a driver can crash. For instance, teen drivers generally have higher insurance rates because they’re more likely to get in a car accident than almost any other age group.
• Add information about past or current insurance coverage options. Drivers will have to tell if they are currently insured or not, if their car insurance lapsed, details about past insurance claims, details about their previous insurance company, how long they have been with the previous insurer, or deductible level.
• Add information about previous car accidents, or tickets. The driving record can make a big difference in the final insurance quote. A history of accidents, speeding tickets, and DUIs can obviously raise the car insurance rates, but drivers can also get higher insurance quotes if they don’t have a driving record yet.

The final results include more than just a sample of waiting providers and rates. Drivers can view and purchase coverage from auto insurance companies precisely matched to their insurance profile.

“We’re proud to help Iowans take steps toward a more secure financial future,” Iowa Insurance Commissioner Doug Ommen said. “I encourage all employers and affiliate organizations to join us in providing these resources to their employees and members. It’s free and easy to do but can make a big imp

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB)
July 08, 2020

Financial Fitness Group (http://www.financialfitnessgroup.com) and the Iowa Insurance Division announce the extension of their partnership to provide financial education to Iowans. For the last seven years, the Iowa Insurance Division, in collaboration with the Financial Fitness Group, has offered the Iowa Financial Fitness Challenge to all employers and large affiliate organizations in Iowa. This public service initiative is sponsored and funded by the Iowa Insurance Division at no cost for employers and their employees to access the program.

“We’re proud to help Iowans take steps toward a more secure financial future,” Iowa Insurance Commissioner Doug Ommen said. “I encourage all employers and affiliate organizations to join us in providing these resources to their employees and members. It’s free and easy to do but can make a big impact to Iowans.”

Now more than ever, the impact of financial literacy on the American workforce is critical. Recent studies suggest that in light of COVID-19, employees are now facing new work-life challenges in the current crisis, with two out of three employees stating they feel even more stressed now than before the pandemic. Financial health has been directly linked to poor physical, mental, and social health and can cost an employer up to $2000 on average per employee.

“When we first engaged with the Iowa Insurance Division in 2013, we never imagined we would impact financial literacy in the state of Iowa as we have,” said Joe Saari, Founder of the Financial Fitness Group. “Since we launched the Iowa Financial Fitness Challenge, we’ve engaged more than 400 organizations and financially educated over 200,000 employees within Iowa.” He continued, “It is an honor to have extended this partnership for the next three years with the Iowa Insurance Division to continue to provide free financial wellness to every Iowan, especially during today’s economic crises due to COVID-19.”

More than 400 organizations have participated in the program over the last five years, including Genesis Health System, Des Moines Public Schools, YMCA of Greater Des Moines, Iowa Catholic Radio, Girl Scouts of Greater Iowa, and Mercy Medical Center to name a few.

Here’s how the Iowa Financial Fitness Challenge works:

• Each organization’s platform is branded and comes pre-loaded with five-course topics on personal finance and investing fundamentals.
• Throughout the challenge, participants are quizzed after each course, to set a baseline for where they should focus their attention. The platform then intuitively recommends other courses to the participants based on their lack of what they call the A, B, C’s of Financial Wellness – aptitude, behavior, and confidence, with respect to specific financial topics.
• After completing the last course, users are assessed based on metrics from the quizzes they take throughout the program to see the impact of the program. Each organization’s administrator is then issued a final report that illustrates changes in financial wellness scores, knowledge, behaviors, and attitudes of their participants.

Each course takes about 1 hour to complete and is accessible anytime, anywhere from any computer, tablet, or smartphone. Spending as little as 10 minutes a day, users can go at their own pace, taking as long or as short a time as they would like to complete it. The Iowa Financial Fitness Challenge is proven to lower stress and distractions, as well as increase employee productivity. 70% of participants improved their financial literacy confidence levels after completion of the challenge, while 48% of participants improved their knowledge of basic finances.

The Financial Fitness Challenge occurs twice per year, once in April and once in September, and is offered for free on a first-come, first-serve basis to employers who apply to participate in the program. The program is provided to employer groups as well as affiliate organizations with large memberships who would like to offer financial literacy as an added member benefit. The next challenge begins on September 9, 2020, and spots are filling up quickly. To learn more about the program and apply for this fall’s challenge, organizations may visit financialfitnessgroup.com/iowa.

“The best way to find affordable car insurance while being unemployed is by comparing online quotes from insurance providers that are available in the area.”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
July 08, 2020

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents several measures unemployed drivers can take to get cheaper car insurance.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/how-to-find-cheaper-car-insurance-after-losing-your-job/

The current coronavirus outbreak has caused millions to lose their jobs. Many people are struggling to pay their rent and utilities, even though they have no income or they have to rely on an unemployment check. Car insurance might be one place where many can reduce their expenses.

Unemployed drivers who are looking to save money on car insurance should do the following:

• 
  Contact the insurance provider. Many car insurance companies are offering discounts, refunds, bill payment flexibility, and other options as many drivers are struggling in these challenging times. Although most companies had resumed normal billing by the end of May 2020, they are still ready to help customers who are going through difficulties. The best solution for unemployed drivers is to contact them directly and let them know about their job status.
• Check the current policy. Keeping full coverage on an older vehicle while being unemployed is just a waste of money and unemployed drivers should avoid doing so at least until they get a new job. Raising the deductible to pay lower premiums is another great move drivers can make to save some money on car insurance. Most unemployed drivers are no longer required to make a commute and they have a reduced driving risk. For this reason, they should contact their insurers and ask for a low-mileage discount.
• Be safe on the road. While being unemployed, drivers should avoid getting a DUI, speeding ticket, or a moving violation on their driving records. By doing so, drivers will keep their premiums low.
• Maintain a good credit score. Not paying bills on time can backfire. The credit score is a major factor in how the rates are set in every state but California, Hawaii, and Massachusetts. Drivers with poor credit can pay nearly twice as much for the same policy as someone with excellent credit.
• Shop around. Don’t pick the first option that looks good. Unemployed drivers should have plenty of time to check around and compare multiple quotes from different insurance companies.
• Look for discounts. Unemployed drivers who are also students can get a good student discount if they have good grades in school. Drivers who are moving to a work-from-home career or are driving little should look for providers who are offering pay-per-mile insurance policies. Also, drivers who already have homeowners, renters, condo, life insurance, or other insurance, should think about bundling all household policies with the same company to get a multi-policy discount.
• Install a telematics device. These policies usually use an under-the-dash plug-in device or smartphone app to check the driving habits. The acceleration, braking, distance, speed, route choice, and time of day can all affect the total savings. Not going back and forth to work five days a week should qualify unemployed drivers for a reduced rate.
• Apply and pay online for coverage. Buying car insurance on the internet can give the driver a discount. Also, drivers can get a slightly larger discount for electronic payments from their bank account rather than a credit card because of the lack of processing fees. Furthermore, unemployed drivers can save money by paying for the whole policy upfront.
