Company Description

Nationwide Auto Insurance provides insurance plans, products and financial services, ranging from car insurance, property (home insurance), life insurance, health insurance, business insurance, travel, identity theft coverage, and pet insurance. Nationwide also offers a variety of investment and wealth management services such as advisory, mutual funds, annuities, individual retirement accounts (IRAs), and employer sponsored retirement plans for individuals. The company also provides checking, savings, money market, loans and lines of credit products, as well as business/commercial services and products like employee benefits, retirement plans, defined benefit plans, and retirement and estate planning.

Nationwide is one of the top 10 largest insurance companies in the world, and is considered to be, financially speaking, one of the strongest and stable.

Like other insurance companies offering discounts, Nationwide Auto Insurance offers the following discounts:

Students a good driving and good grades discount (3.0 average GPA or better in school).
A long-term customer discount for policyholders who have been with the company for at least five years.
Homeowners, who may also opt to bundle multiple insurance plans and receive deep additional rate reductions.
And drivers willing to take an accident prevention course (or drivers education) from their state’s DMV.

Nationwide hopes these incentives encourage students and young drivers to not only do well in school, but also lower car insurance rates by taking classes that promote safe driving habits.

It is also important for policyholders and drivers to know that Nationwide obtains an applicant’s credit history to calculate and determine car insurance rates and quotes. Such things as payment history, established credit, and credit sources are believed to be indicators of your risk profile to an insurance company looking to minimize insurance losses in the future. If you have good credit, you will most likely get cheaper insurance rates, but remember that your credit history is not the only factor taken into consideration. The only way to figure out what your car insurance rates will be is to get an auto insurance quote by inputting your zip code.
