Our verdict
Lemonade suits US households wanting several policies in the same app, with premiums starting at $5 a month. Its range is narrow: auto, home and renters covers personal lines only, so anyone needing health or travel cover goes to a broader provider.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Premiums start at $5 a month, so the first policy is a small commitment
- auto, home and renters policies sit under the same insurer, keeping a household on a single account
- Monthly payments are available, and the pricing model is monthly
- Support runs on phone, email and chat, and claims start in the app, phone and email
Cons
- Health, travel and motorcycle are not among auto, home and renters, so those lines need another provider
- Billing follows monthly alone, so annual cover is not among the payment options
- Life cover tops out at Up to $100,000,000, and the range sits in a single US market
Who it suits
- US renters and homeowners who want several policies in the same app
- Pet owners adding an animal policy to an existing monthly account
- People who want a low entry price rather than a long policy list
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers who want health, travel or motorcycle, since those are not among auto, home and renters while Good Sam Insurance Agency lists them in auto, home and renters
- Readers who want a local market rather than the US, where Euroasia Insurance quotes from UZS 60,000
- Readers who rank the entry price above everything else, since bunq is listed at €0 and Lemonade at $5
Who runs it
The insurer behind the policies is Lemonade Insurance Company, an insurer based in the US and founded in 2015. It writes auto, home and renters cover for households rather than business risks, bills monthly, and runs support on phone, email and chat while claims start in the app, phone and email.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Lemonade cost to start?+
Cover starts at $5, which sits below the site median of €8.37 and under the upper quartile of €29.72. Lemonade bills monthly, so the entry figure is what a first policy costs each month rather than an annual sum paid up front.
Which kinds of insurance does Lemonade sell?+
Lemonade lists auto, home and renters as its range, covering the household rather than business risks. Health, travel and motorcycle lines are not in that list, so anyone needing them has to look at a wider provider such as Good Sam Insurance Agency.
Who actually insures the cover?+
The policies are written by Lemonade Insurance Company, an insurer based in the US, so the cover sits with a named carrier. The same insurer stands behind auto, home and renters policies, so a household running several lines deals with a single company from first quote to claim.
How do the payments work?+
Monthly payments are available and the pricing model is monthly, so premiums are collected month by month rather than as an annual lump sum. The entry figure of $5 is the monthly starting point, which keeps the first commitment small while a policy list grows.
How do I get help or make a claim?+
Support runs on phone, email and chat, and claims are raised through the app, phone and email. Those routes overlap, so a claim can start in the app and continue by phone or email, and day to day questions can go to the chat or the help centre.
How much life cover is available?+
Life cover can reach Up to $100,000,000, and that ceiling suits people building a large death benefit rather than a modest sum. A policy holder who wants a smaller figure sits below it, so the limit caps the top end rather than setting the premium.
Can I hold several policies in a single account?+
Lemonade sells auto, home and renters under the same insurer, so home, renters, life and pet cover can sit on a single account. Monthly payments apply across the account, which keeps each line billed on the same cycle.
Which country does Lemonade serve?+
The insurer is headquartered in the US and its auto, home and renters range is sold to households in that market. Cover is written by Lemonade Insurance Company, so a reader resident elsewhere would look at a provider in their own country.
