Our take

Amica is known for its long history of strong customer service, but in Insure.com’s 2026 survey, the company performs below average across several key satisfaction categories. While customers give Amica solid marks for ease of service, policy offerings and digital experience, its scores for customer satisfaction, recommendations and trust fall noticeably below competitors.

However, Amica performs far better on renewals, with 92% of customers indicating that they plan to stay with the insurer, suggesting that policyholders value long-term stability, even if individual service experiences are uneven. 

Below, we break down how Amica compares on cost, coverage, claims and customer experience to help you decide if it is the right fit.

How we calculated this rating

As a mutual company owned by its policyholders, Amica serves more than 1 million policies in force nationwide across auto, home and life insurance.

Unlike many large national insurers, Amica does not rely on independent agents; instead, it operates through a direct-to-consumer service model, allowing customers to work closely with Amica representatives for quotes, claims and policy support. This structure is a key reason Amica consistently ranks at the top of industry surveys for customer satisfaction and claims handling.

Financially, Amica is recognized for its stability and disciplined underwriting practices. The company maintains an A+ (Superior) financial strength rating from AM Best and consistently demonstrates strong capitalization and low complaint ratios. With annual premium revenue in the billions and a focus on sustained, steady growth, Amica remains one of the most reliable and service-focused insurers in the country.

Resources & Methodology

Methodology

In 2025, Insure.com surveyed more than 2,000 insurance consumers through an independent research firm, Dynata. Customers named their insurer and rated it on customer satisfaction, ease of service, policy options, claims handling, digital experience, discounts and bundling home with auto. We also asked whether they planned to renew, would recommend their insurer to friends and family and trusted their insurer.

For insurers with enough survey responses, we added:

  • AM Best financial strength ratings, which measure an insurer’s ability to pay claims
  • NAIC complaint index scores, which show how many customer complaints an insurer receives relative to its size
  • Average premium data from Quadrant Information Services for a hypothetical 40-year-old driver with a clean driving record, good credit score, 12-mile daily commute and full coverage policy on a Honda Accord LX with liability limits of 100/300/100.

With guidance from Prof. David Marlett, Ph.D., we applied the following weights to calculate each company’s final rating:

  • Customer survey: 40%
  • AM Best: 25%
  • Average premium: 20%
  • NAIC complaints: 15%

Each insurer received a rating between 0.5 and 5 stars.
