Our verdict
Travelers is a US insurer that writes its own policies across auto, home and renters, so a household can place car, home and pet cover with one company. It suits people who would rather deal with the underwriter than shop a broker's panel, and the record goes back to 1864.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Covers auto, home and renters, from vehicles and homes through renters, landlord and pet policies under one name.
- Writes the policies itself as an insurer, so the contract sits with the company you deal with rather than a broker.
- Pet policies accept 8 weeks and older, no upper age restriction, so a puppy and a mature animal both fit.
- Claims can be started through online, phone and mail, including in person with an agent or online.
Cons
- General support runs on phone and help centre, with no email address or live chat listed.
- The published line-up is auto, home and renters, so there is no health or life policy to add to the same account.

Scored 9.6 / 10 by AssureCue.
Who it suits
- US households who want auto, home, renters, landlord and pet cover from one underwriter.
- Pet owners whose animals fall inside 8 weeks and older, no upper age restriction.
- People who like an agent in the room, since online, phone and mail are open for claims.
Who should look elsewhere
- Good Sam Insurance Agency, if life and health cover matter, since its auto, home and renters reach beyond auto, home and renters.
- Hiscox UK, where landlord and renters cover with home emergency is the priority, as home, renters and landlord include it.
- Euroasia Insurance, if gadget cover is the point, because auto, home and travel list gadget and auto, home and renters does not.

Frequently asked questions
What insurance does Travelers sell?+
Travelers lists auto, home and renters as its product range, covering vehicles, homes, rental properties, landlords, trips and pets under one name. The legal entity named for car business is The Travelers Indemnity Company, and the company describes itself as an insurer rather than a comparison site.
Is Travelers an insurer or a broker?+
Travelers is an insurer: policies are underwritten by the company itself, with The Travelers Indemnity Company named for car cover. That matters if you want the contract to sit with one named company rather than a panel of providers chosen by a broker.
How old does my pet have to be for cover?+
Pet policies here start young. 8 weeks and older, no upper age restriction sets the entry point for a new puppy, and the same range records that there is no upper age limit, so a mature animal can still be covered within the same policy range.
How do I make a claim?+
Claims run through online, phone and mail, so a pet or home claim can start with an agent in person, online, by phone, or on paper by mail or fax. For money, that spread of routes decides how quickly a loss gets reported and settled.
How do I reach support outside a claim?+
General support runs on phone and help centre, meaning a phone line and a help centre are the listed routes. If you prefer to work in writing, the claims side is broader, with online, phone and mail open once a policy is in force.
Which regulator licenses Travelers?+
Travelers is licensed by the State of Connecticut in the US under a certificate of authority, and its home market is US. Contracts sit with The Travelers Indemnity Company for car cover, so a policy taken out in the US is a US contract rather than a UK one.
How long has Travelers been trading?+
The company dates from 1864 and trades from US, a long record for a personal lines insurer. Its claims routes, online, phone and mail, include an agent option, which points to in-house handling rather than a purely online model.
What premium should I expect?+
Across the site, starting premiums cluster at €2.92 to €29.72, with the middle listed price at €8.37. In the car insurance ranking the middle sits at €8.72, so a Travelers quote is worth testing against that band.
