Our verdict

Nationwide suits people in the US who want several policies from a single insurer, covering auto, home, renters, life, motorcycle and pet with monthly payments available. Its listed starting premium is $35, a general entry point rather than a quote for a single policy.

Who runs it

Nationwide trades as Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, an insurer headquartered in the United States and founded in 1925. Because it underwrites the policies itself, cover and claims sit with the same company rather than a broker. Support runs on phone and help centre, which lists phone and a help centre, so help is available without visiting a branch.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of company is Nationwide?+

Nationwide is an insurer (insurer) rather than a broker, trading as Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company. Its headquarters sit in US and it was founded in 1925. Policies are underwritten by the company itself, so the contract and the claims both sit with the same firm.

How much does Nationwide cost?+

Premiums start at $35 across the personal lines it sells. That figure is a starting point rather than a quote, and the site median for the same measure is €8.37, so this opening price reads as high on the page.

Can I pay monthly?+

Yes, monthly payments are available. The listed payment model is monthly, and monthly is the only model shown, so spreading the premium across the year is the standard arrangement rather than an extra.

What can I insure?+

The listed insurance types are auto, home and renters, which covers auto, home, renters, life, motorcycle and pet. Health and travel sit outside that list, so anyone wanting those would look at Good Sam Insurance Agency, whose types are auto, home and renters.

How do I get help or make a claim?+

Support runs on phone and help centre, so phone and a help centre are the routes in. Motorcycle claims are listed under phone, which names phone only, so a bike claim goes through a call rather than a written channel.

Who does Nationwide suit?+

It fits US households that want several policies under a single provider, since the types listed are auto, home and renters and support is by phone through phone and help centre. Riders and pet owners are included in that list, and monthly payments spread the cost.

How far does motorcycle cover reach?+

For custom motorcycle insurance the cover limit is USD 50,000 per bike (custom motorcycle insurance). That is the ceiling applied to a single bike. Claims on that policy run by phone, the only channel listed under phone.
