Pioneers in the industry
Progressive is known for a number of firsts in the auto insurance industry including writing insurance for high-risk drivers, concierge service to help customers find a replacement vehicle, and in-person service and support after a claim report. Specially marked vehicles bring claims professionals to wherever customers need them, including the site of an accident.
Progressive is the 4th-largest personal auto insurance provider and is known for its pay-as-you-drive program, Snapshot. Snapshot drivers volunteer to be monitored and can receive significant discounts through the program if found to be following safe driving practices.
Consider Progressive for bundling, budgets, or not the best record
Since Progressive offers a wide array of coverage types within auto, home, life, and travel, consider Progressive when looking to bundle multiple types of insurance coverages. Not only can the company provide one-stop shopping, but there are several discounts of which customers can take advantage with multiple policies and multiple vehicles.
The company’s “Name Your Price” tool allows users to find coverage that will fit within a budget. Customers may be able to find a limited policy at an affordable price that other insurers might not provide. Customers can save even more by registering in the Snapshot program, receiving additional discounts based on monitored and safe driving.
Progressive writes coverages for a wide range of customers, including high-risk drivers. Above-average credit and driving history are needed to get the best available rates, but drivers with violations, accidents, and even DUIs can get a policy with Progressive.
