Pros and cons
Pros
- One list to scan: 494 brands, of which 332 are licensed, each with a starting premium.
- Monthly payments are offered by 88.9% of the brands listed, which spreads the cost of a year of cover.
- The spread shows up front: the lower quartile of starting premiums is €2.92 and the upper quartile is €29.72.
- Car insurance is the list it leads on, with 381 brands ranked there.
Cons
- Auto is the only insurance type listed (auto), so home, life, health or pet quotes need another site.
- As a comparison site (comparison site) it does not underwrite, so the cover sits with whichever brand the search points to.
- The lowest starting premium listed is €0 and the highest is €3,431.08, so a headline figure is only an entry point.
Who it suits
- Drivers who want a single list of starting premiums rather than visiting insurers site by site.
- Shoppers who pay monthly, since 88.9% of the brands listed offer it.
- People who read provider type next to price, because the ranking shows both side by side.
Who should look elsewhere
- Shoppers wanting home, travel or gadget cover alongside auto, since WalletHub lists auto only (auto) and EuroAsia Insurance covers auto, home and travel.
- Renters and landlord cover seekers, who can look at Hiscox UK instead: home, renters and landlord.
- Households bundling pet, life and health policies, since Good Sam Insurance Agency covers auto, home and renters.

Frequently asked questions
Is WalletHub an insurer?+
WalletHub is a comparison site rather than a risk carrier. It ranks 494 brands by starting premium, insurance type, provider type and monthly payment options, and the policy you end up with is written by the brand you pick, so that insurer's terms are the ones that count.
What starting premium does it show for car insurance?+
The median starting premium across the site is €8.37, with a lower quartile of €2.92 and an upper quartile of €29.72. The lowest listed is €0 and the highest is €3,431.08, so read the median as the middle of a wide spread.
Can I pay monthly?+
Monthly payments are offered by 88.9% of the brands listed, while 11.1% do not offer them. Availability rests with the insurer and the policy rather than with the site, so check the payment terms on the brand you are considering.
Which insurance types does it cover?+
Auto is the only type listed: auto. Home, renters, life, health, travel, pet and motorcycle cover sit with other providers, so anyone pricing several lines at once will need to search in more than one place.
Who runs WalletHub?+
The site operates under the legal entity Evolution Finance, Inc., founded in 2013 and based in the United States. It is a comparison service, so the duty of care on a claim sits with the insurer that writes the policy rather than with the site.
How many brands does it compare?+
The site lists 494 brands, of which 332 are licensed, and counts 6 partners. The car insurance ranking is narrower, at 381 brands with 205 licensed ones.
What should I weigh besides the premium?+
The ranking puts price next to insurance types, provider type and whether monthly payments are available, and 89.4% of the car insurance brands allow monthly payments. A low starting premium says little about cover, so read the provider type and the types listed as well.
